Ronnie Fieg Collabs - Tracking order link http://shop.kithnyc.com/pages/tracking

Someone just ask straight up why the production date is from Feb when the shoes came out in Dec. Also how he has 100+ pairs of a shoe that was limited to 1990. Explain that you're trying to help their cause lol

EDIT: nevermimd someone just did

Contact Kith C/S on twitter. Don't mention the listing or this thread so there's no bias. Send them pics and say you bought them aftermarket and want to make sure they're real
 
If the Homage are fake or not is anybody else impressed by how freaking accurate these are to the original? They have to be made by the same people whether it was authorized or not. I wouldn't put past RF or Asics to have created more pairs for a later release or something. They are that close! Anybody try them on and see if they fit the same? A received some fake AM1's once and they looked perfect but once i wore them for two minutes I knew there was no chance they were real!

Fake asics are nothing new to be real also fake new balance

I've seen fake homages before and it had the special box and all the dead give away on the older fakes were they colored in the fieg Red on the heel lol also the toe box was a little iffy(these pairs also based on pics)

Truth be told asics/NB kicks are far simpler to make than nikes so the quality of fakes can be great

Those fake AM1 you could tell because the technology wasn't up to par

But with asics not much technology lol


Love the sellers response he got them from asics directly like word? A special boutique release from a year back that barely anyone got in the world asics was like hey you Cali based eBay reseller here are 200 pairs just because


Riiiiiight

Lol

Yeah the listing went live with 2-3 pairs per size and were selling fast.

Sold out.

Which all seemed legit, until an additional FSR was listed hours later.

I understand good to perfect fakes are made, but this has to be one of the HARDEST shoes to fake considering ALL of the different material used on the shoe.

The refund policy is amazing, so def worth the risk when the listing was first posted.

Edit: the previous fakes I've seen were awful. Shape, colors, materials, and boxes.

Granted they were fakes I saw squids on IG with trying to stunt.

So guys I went back and literally inspected them eye to eye as close as possible. The shoes fit and feel exactly the same both pairs in terms of sizing and comfort are identical.

I tried removing the insides from the pair I got directly from kith last year but don't want to rip it out. Most of it is glued on so I can't remove the insole.

I tried removed the insoles from these and they are also glued on. But more glued on compared to the kith pair.

I've compared stitching and every other area and they are exactly the same. Theres very very minor differences in cuts and switching but I don't think that's enough to call them fake because every shoes is small differences regardless of brand.

Only reasonable explanation for the diff prod dates and Made in Vietnam font is that these were left over materials by Asics or b-grades which didn't make the cut of the final 1990 pairs and got slapped with later production tags.

Who knows but I've never never seen a fake this good if they are fake...every angle, color, interior and exterior stitching, signs are all on point. The sizing and comfort worn together feel the same so there's nothing telling me that these are fake.

Someone in Nyc want to take a pair to flight club or kith and get them verified? I can try but it won't be until the weekend. Here some more pics...could even argue the 2/2016 prod pair is made better in some areas

Here are some QC stickers inside the Asics box. Anyone with normal box homages from last year's release have these?

I wish ruze pairs were opposite of the released pairs..

Imagine having the same scheme on the left and right lol
 
Ruze pair toebox has a slightly more "fuzzy" toe suede area. Bare noticeable in pics if at all but in hand, within a foot of you vision. Kind of how some mossads are not as bad since this is barely noticeable even in hand.

Lastly, they SMELL THE SAME! I don't get it honesty...fakes at least smell like glue and have at least 1 thing wrong. These are literally flawless...

We need kith / Ronnie / flight club to verify.

I'll try going on Saturday but if someone can go before, please do!
