Slight differences. If the real one wasn't there, most would have a hard time. Appreciate the education as always and congrats again on the W.
The thing about getting older is having more money in pocket than when I was younger and not giving a cot damn about what people think so I take the fakes 😂😂😂.
Thanks for the video man. Mine also coming today so I needed this vid. 👏🙌
the real pair is darker. cant wait for mine to come in paid resell but had to get them

Me and you both!! I tried to get mine when they released but I didn’t so I paid retail and I feel it’s going to be the same for the white thunders coming

Thanks for the video received mine from stock x ,you can clearly see the 12 stamp in the fake , my pair is good thanks again
The “bumps” on the heel tab are bigger on the fakes. Stand out a lot.
More L's for me, they just keep coming. Glad you hit a pair bro!!
Would love to see a real vs fake on some toro bravo aj4’s, I appreciate the content!
Thanks for the video….do both have the Matte black finish on the leather
My box looks like the fake box with the dark ring but I have a retail pair
The orange part of the sunset on the back is way lower on the retail one.
Gotta go with the retails i just prefer that sleeker look
The leather and the blocking on the retail version vary from sneaker to sneaker also. The stitching on the inside of the Replica is better than the real ones. The next pair of Jordan’s I get are going to be a limited edition Jordan’s and if I can’t get them for retail I will get the replicas
J Balvin & DJ Khaled will be watching this video no cap 🫡!
They already have the current updated correct version already
Wow, they came out with a replica real quick. I hope they don’t have a replica of the Jordan 3 green glow, I would have to check my sneakers to see if they are real because I went through the secondary market
I paid $150 look the same from vietnam super comfy
How different is the leather quality? You mentioned the retail was very soft - how does that compare to the reps?
👍👌
Got mine on StockX + put em through check check but always pass by yourself. Appreciate you, noticed the Nike Air at the heel tab has more black bleeding through em whereas the foofoo was more orange, the elephant print was distinctively darker on the real ones also but those reps where good
Remember box sizes and the extra column in the air unit were fixed. So....
Does the retail pair have a green quality control sticker?
Mine is real 😍😍😍

Facts
I thought the cement on retail would be much darker than that pair you have..
I like how you said not flaws just material differences. They keep leaving at least two material differences so the legit public can tell the authorized from the replica (observation) . That's good for the legit community and everyone who wish to buy a legit pair. I believe they deliberately put in material flaws to keep things balanced with the big companies (observation) . I ask, how could they get the sunset colors correct on the side over the air unit so precise and the yellow on the jumpman with the wonky leg stitching on the tongue, yet mess up the black shadow around the face on the box cover and shade of the out sole. Its close but with the real pair in hand that seems odd. The tumbling of the black leather is relative to each pair so that's a giver. Over scaling is also something they can improve on if they want (observation). They have improved on most silhouettes. The 11, if they remove the orange peel that you refer to. Then legit checking would be a real problem. As is most get what they want with some compromise. Great vid as well.
Question what do u with those fake pairs?
All around though it’s pretty dang close and that is scary, I will only buy my shoes through eBay, StockX, Goat, or from Nike itself
Big thang is the overall mold on reps is bricky!
I want to do some reviews on the fake ones I already got the real ones where Do I get the fake ?

The color blocking was off on fakes too square compared to real pair that was a fade gradient

For the most part yes
They are all the same to me. spacing is the same. No two pairs are alike, even in the retail, you know that. you may have gotten not the real updated version of the replicas. I would spend a $150 on the UA's than spending 450-500 on the retails....
@JacobMarcellus
Ай бұрын
Thats your opinion but the simple fact is the shoe you call UA is a counterfeit replica made by a 3rd party non nike partnered factory in china. My shoe came directly from nike there’s doubt here. If you want to spend 150 on a fake be by guess i have no issue with that. If you listen to what i said in the video I said the exact same thing. This video isn’t for you if you buy fakes already.

Im not splitting hairs. As I stated in the video this is necessary for legit checking when you’re buying On the resell market. If you have or buy fakes this video isn’t really needed unless you want to see how accurate your fake is to retail.
