We don't know they are all different for sure, but the statistical likelyhood of any two being the same are very small.
Ice crystals form in several ways, and the structure is extremely sensitive to humidity and temperature, which is slightly different in different parts of the cloud. Then snowflakes can hit each other and fragment, or stick together. So, you see, so much happens that it would be rare to see two that look exactly the same.

Is every person differnt? Think of this: In the Florida everglades there grows exotic orchids. Rare ones that grow no where else on earth. There is an orchid that is so special it has it's own species of moth to pollinate it. If the Lord is willing to make so many different moths, dogs, trees, people, do you not think that snowflakes are as important to Him?

because it is impossible for them to be the same seeing that the structure is so loose

Maybe someone already checked them all.
Or not.
