Anouk 120: real vs fake
The Anouk 120 is Jimmy Choo’s signature ultra-pointed pump on a dramatic 120 mm stiletto. The extreme last geometry and tall heel are exactly what replicas consistently water down, shaving the height and rounding the toe. LegitCheck AI reads the heel pitch, toe sharpness and insole print from your photos.
What to check on the Anouk 120
Model-specific zones – on top of the brand-level signs.
120 mm heel
The Anouk stands on a 120 mm stiletto – noticeably taller than the Romy. Replicas often can’t hold the height and pitch: the heel ends up lower, thicker or crookedly seated with a visible gap at the attachment.
Ultra-pointed toe
The Anouk toe is elongated and very sharp, with a symmetrical, drawn-out silhouette. A rounded or shortened point immediately reveals a last copied by eye.
Insole print
The insole carries “JIMMY CHOO” with a small “London” beneath it in the correct brand font, centered and evenly kerned; “MADE IN ITALY” and the size sit on the sole (some pairs also carry “VERO CUOIO”), so that line is not expected inside. The wrong typeface, off-center placement or cramped letters signal a fake.
Material: glitter, suede, patent
In glitter the flakes are dense and even; in suede the nap is short and uniform; in patent the shine is clean and deep with no streaking. A dull or cloudy material points to cheap stock.
Sole and edge
A leather sole with clean branding and an evenly painted edge. A blurry stamp and sloppy rim are a typical replica failure.

FAQ
How does the Anouk 120 differ from the Romy 100?
Mainly the heel height: the Anouk uses a 120 mm stiletto and a more extreme, elongated toe, while the Romy is 100 mm. Replicas often confuse the geometry by lowering the heel.
The toe feels extremely pointed – is that normal?
Yes, the ultra-pointed elongated toe is an Anouk signature. What’s suspicious is a rounded or short toe, which betrays an inaccurate last.
How do I check the Anouk 120 heel?
Assess the height, thickness and pitch of the stiletto, plus how flush it sits against the sole. A noticeably lowered, thick or crookedly seated heel is a red flag.
