The Shoes category currently contains different kinds of footwear. Begin with the silhouette you want rather than sorting every shoe by one price. For a low-top sneaker comparison, open the Nike Air Force 1 Low-Top Sneakers (Weidian 7822989630) and the Nike Dunk Low Sneakers (7819957751).
| Check | What to record |
|---|---|
| Source identity | The full original item URL and exact numeric ID for each listing |
| Variant | Visible colorway and size options on the current seller page |
| Product images | Toe shape, sole profile and side panels shown by the seller |
| Open questions | Size chart, materials, stock or measurements that the listing does not settle |
Do not merge two item IDs
Each product page's “Choose Platform” links must carry its own source ID. If you save a link from the Air Force 1 page while discussing the Dunk, you may open the wrong listing. Check the item ID again after arriving at a purchasing platform. A good shortlist is two or three properly identified products, not a collection of unlabeled screenshots.
After an order reaches the warehouse, use the QC photo checklist for the actual received pair.
Build a useful shortlist
Give each shoe its own row with the exact item page, source URL, desired colorway and size. Mark an option as “not confirmed” if the current seller page does not show it. Do not assume a shoe that shares a model name uses the same size chart, materials or seller. A screenshot of a colorway is less useful than a current source link tied to the right item ID.
After choosing a pair, consult the seller's size information and compare it with a shoe you already own. Warehouse QC photos can help catch a visible mismatch in the received pair, but they are not a substitute for checking size before the order.
