If you bought it off Amazon or eBay or AliExpress then highly likely yes.

It’s usually obvious with the quick link. phony ones don’t have numbers
edit: i bought 25 on walmart.com and the quick link would fall apart. It was too good to be true until Paypal stepped in with the save and i got to keep 15 lbs of chains

This is a weird one, fake Shimano items usually have a printed barcode rather than a sticker, this seems to have a sticker. But the Shimano logo up front seems to be missing part of the logo.

If you bought it from an authorized retailer it’s real. If you bought it off Ali express or Amazon it’s probably fake.
