Authenticity — What Sniff-Tested Means

Sniff-tested at Doodle Sneaks means a hands-on check of construction, materials, stitching, and labels on the actual pair — not a lab, not a third-party certificate. Pairs that fail do not get a product page. If a delivered pair is defective, damaged, wrong, or not authentic, email roman@romsneaks.com with your order number and we make it right at no cost to you.

100% authentic

We sell authentic sneakers. That's the standard. If a pair doesn't pass inspection, it doesn't go on the site.

What sniff-tested means

Sniff-tested is our name for a hands-on check of the actual pair. We look at construction, materials, stitching, and labels before a pair ships.

What it is not

It is not a lab test. It is not a third-party certificate. There is no outside grader paperwork. It is us inspecting the shoes in front of us.

If a pair isn't right

Inspect your order when it arrives.

If the pair is defective, damaged, the wrong item, or not authentic, email roman@romsneaks.com with your order number. We'll make it right at no cost to you.
