The Hot Chick

Christian Louboutin Hot Chick

Avantelle Authentication Team · Updated July 2026

The Hot Chick is an ultra-pointed stiletto, one of Louboutin's most striking modern silhouettes.

With nothing under the arch, the 100mm sits at its full, honest pitch. It runs small and cuts narrow, so size up half a size. Each pair passes our authentication team before listing, the reason a considered pre-owned example wears beautifully for years.

Wearing it

There is no platform to soften the 100mm, so think of these as a statement heel for a seated occasion. On patent, scuffs show at the toe and along the heel first, so that is where we look hardest.

Does the Hot Chick run true to size?

The Hot Chick runs small and cuts narrow. Most people take half a size up from their everyday size, and if you have a wider foot you will feel the taper across the toes. When in doubt, size up rather than down.

Authentication

How do you spot a fake Hot Chick?

We authenticate every pair in house. These are the details our team checks first on any Hot Chick that comes through us. For the full method, read our guide to authenticating Louboutins.

01

The red sole

Louboutin's red is a specific shade (Pantone 18-1663, Rouge Louboutin). On a worn pair it fades and scuffs at the tread first. A sole that reads orange or pinkish, or paint sitting on top of the leather rather than in it, is a warning sign.

02

The sole stamp

The red sole is engraved with Christian Louboutin and the size, set across the arch. On a genuine pair the lettering is crisp, evenly pressed and correctly placed. Shallow, uneven or badly spaced engraving, or a stamp that looks printed on rather than pressed in, is a common tell on a fake.

03

The insole stamp

Christian Louboutin and Made in Italy are stamped cleanly into the insole with the size. The lettering is even and precisely spaced. Smudged, shallow, or misaligned stamping is one of the most common tells on a fake.

04

The heel and tip

The Hot Chick is a 100mm heel with no platform, so the pitch and proportions are exact. Check the heel is the correct height and the tip is a genuine Louboutin replacement, not a generic one.

05

Construction

The patent should read as a deep, even gloss with no cloudiness or crazing. Stitching is fine and even, the lining supple, and the shoe holds its lines. Loose threads, glue seepage, or a toe box that does not taper cleanly all point away from an authentic pair.

06

Box and dust bag

Original packaging is a supporting signal, never proof on its own. We authenticate on the shoe itself, and a genuine box and dust bag with the correct labelling add confidence.

Questions

Hot Chick, answered

Does the Hot Chick run true to size?

No. The Hot Chick runs small and narrow, so most people size up half a size from their usual.

How high is the Hot Chick heel?

100mm, about 3.9 inches, with no platform.

Is the Hot Chick comfortable?

With 100mm and no platform it is a steep, seated-occasion shoe. If you want the look with more wearability, the So Kate is easier to walk in.

What is the difference between the Hot Chick and the So Kate?

The main difference is height: the Hot Chick is 100mm and the So Kate is 120mm. Both are pointed, red-soled Louboutins, so it comes down to the silhouette and how much heel you want.

Can you authenticate a pre-owned Hot Chick?

Yes. We authenticate every pair in house, and we also offer a free check on any Louboutins you already own. Send us a few photos and our team will take a look.

How much is a pre-owned Hot Chick?

It retails around £720 new at Christian Louboutin. Pre-owned pairs are typically well below that; we source authenticated pairs to your budget.
