you act like those collars aren't filled by foam that BY NATURE change shape...

like whats wrong with you? i already sonned you posting my space jams and you know

damn well i got DS concords i'll dig out and shut up your whole conversation...da difference

between grey market and retail Concords are ONLY AGE.

when you any of ya even seen grey markets outside da internet? i live in NYC, all da mom

and pop spots in harlem and da bx supplying these and i see em in person all da time.

time to get off that snob soap box and understand whats going on overseas is a compromise

of contracted nike factories doing w/e da hell they want.

We get it man however if these guys did their jobs better we wouldnt be able to tell EXCEPT for the age..There is a difference in quality no matter what materials are being used, They cut corners and we see it even if you cant.. Its just not the sole for the 100000th time... I live right off of South St. in Philly.. I dont have enough fingers and toes to count how many GMs and replicas i see on the daily.. I can tell most of the time, I have a trained eye.

**** This is my thinking on this GM thing..If you just wanna rock some 11s or Js or whatever and you cant afford the RD grade A product.. By all means do you man... Who am i to tell anyone what to do with their $$. If you know what you are buying and are OK with it more power to you..It dosent make you a better man by your kicks or your possessions.. I understand the struggle i grew up on the other side of the tracks.. I dont like fugazi stuff but i understand the market for such things.. If there is a demand someone is gonna fill it.

Now with that being said..IF you are a seller and you are selling GMs or fakes or replicas either one to unsuspecting or ignorant people as RD grade A 100% authentic product- then you are a con and should be beat down with your fugazi ish until you are bleeding from the ears.

IF you are in the market for kicks as a collectible this is my big one.. GMs are just not an option.. Stop fooling yourself.. A fake baseball card is made of paper too...Its just not the same and a collector can and will be able to tell..

how many times have i told you its a ethics situation with grey markets AND NOT da actual sneaker? hundreds of times...

and we ALL know they're not from da release date, no one is a fool here. we all agree these aren't from da 2011 release date, moving FORWARD,

  if you're just wearing em, they're exactly da same, thats what I care about, cuz i ROCK my kicks, these aren't being stashed and worshiped.

if you're just STARING AT EM, and just wanna hold em as collectable, you have to let people understand that grey market XI's WILL AGE da same

way as their release date pairs. if you wanna create some sort of separation between da 2, just let people know to try to get reciepts, and look for

footlocker/champs boxes, etc other than that unless nike fixes this from da inside out then this problem is will continue to a issue for years to come.

sup man.. yea there are a few other little things besides the yellowing..But IMO the yellowing will still be a little different and fairly noticeable if you know what your looking at.. Its age man you just cant fake that.. For instance your Concords posted have whats right for about 3 yrs of oxidization. Now lets say a guy buys a pair of GM Concords today.. If you compare those 2 pair of kicks 10 yrs from now yours will still have 3 yrs more yellowing.. It will be spread out more and darker IMO.. not every single pair but most. Time dosent stop so the GMs can catch up like Ninja thinks.

Just think about it like this if I lined up an OG, a 2000 retro and a 2011 retro Concord.. You should be able to put them in line from oldest to newest  just by the yellowing alone. ***NOTE FOR NINJAS NEXT ARGUMENT*** Im not saying every pair, just most of them.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nike-Air-Jo...3448743?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item3f2c2345a7  notice these joints are gumsole brown and cooked looking.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2000-Nike-A...3495646?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item20d9d3e35e  These are getting there but still a noticeable difference for the 4 yrs ( now 13 yrs later)..the OGs were 96' and 1st retro was 2000

http://www.ebay.com/itm/AIR-JORDAN-...1822218?pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item1e834c1c8a  now compared to this there is a definite difference in the yellowing compared to the other 2 pairs..

Ummm.. OK... your statement proves my point then..

If you messed up and meant to put less, I would have to disagree here. the SJs are 2 yrs older and it looks like it IMO.

Da intensity of his yellowing is WORSE that mine

And his are newer, thats my point.
 
Thanks so much guys. This really helped me. As you can tell im looking to buy some concords. Are these legit?

Thanks again, i repped.
 
hes offering a price of around 210, in your opinion, for the amount of wear on these shoes, is that a fair price?
 
It's hilarious that Ninja can't see, from a distance, the differences between GM 11s and release date pairs. How blind do you have to be to not see the SUPER PUFFY, misshapen, overstuffed collars on this garbage? Collars be stuffed like a thanksgiving turkey. That looks like a normal 11 shape to him?  And the laughable, and very common, flat phylon rounded off in the back instead of coming to a point like it should. These GM's look like garbage, like they usually do. And this is just in pics. Imagine how much worse they look in person. But we can't tell unless we look at the yellowing on the soles, right? OKAAAAAAAY.

  Keep rockin your stuffed turkey kicks. Wear them on thanksgiving. Spill gravy on them and maybe it'll hide some of the flaws. After all, "They da same shoes, b!"

Right on bro. But see the ninja don't want to talk about them collars. I'm telling yall this guy is running a GM factory. Trying to convince everyone that GM's are coo
 
Honestly....to anyone that doesn't know sneakers....you'd be able to fool them no problem. But to anyone that actually knows what they're talking about...it's as plain as day. I don't need to see the bottom of the soles, and I don't need to even be close up. If someone wore those GM 11s, I'd be able to tell fake joints from 10 feet away. It's obvious. Bottom line is GM producers will always cut corners. It's what makes this whole phenomenon profitable. The corners they cut are there to be seen by anyone willing to not turn a blind eye. 
 
Unauthorized/GM's are called that for a reason and not called flat out fakes.  These shoe are practically made out of the same material and technology (constructed alittle different like the tongue for example) as a pair you would get from footlocker so some people would think they're real off that. I can understand how people also think they're fake cause they're not authorized nike products and might not not even be made in a nike factory. If you don't/do like them and think they're fake/authentic than state your opinion and move on and let the TS decide for their self. I have a pair of GM concords myself and I can promise you can't tell them apart on foot unless you look real close and inspect them and most people who aren't avid on sneaker forum don't even know what the word GM means.
