Is "La Sportiva World" legit?
|
A link popped up on my FB feed announcing 80% off ALL La Sportiva shoes. It announces itself as the Sportiva website for UK/Europe. I'm in London right now, maybe that's why this is coming up in my feed. But it seems to good to be true. Has anyone seen this website? Feel free to check it out now, esp you folks back in the US. Maybe it's just a UK thing...but seems fishy. But the website is completely developed, no dead links etc.... Anyone have any info? |

Likely counterfeit. Check out this La Sportiva webpage about all the fake LS websites. Doesn't include the one you referenced, but I wouldn't buy from LAsportivaworld. |

I got the same ad on IG, it's gotta be fake. It showed 80% off all high-end shoes. |

Very clever on their end and the whole thing feels very fishy. Your cart doesn't transfer over to the official la sportiva site, which is a other red flag. |

Just FYI, lasprtivaworld is on the formal don't-buy list now. |
