I already wore my pair twice; so I clearly have no plans on selling. My gripe: what determines exclusivity is the prices on the resale market, and without those high prices we're just wearing a regular Adidas sneaker. And it also bothers me that a sneaker I busted my behind to get has an identical copy, which is accessible to anyone.

I'm not really sure what you're saying. You're upset because these aren't exclusive enough? Or because there are fakes?

I am referring to how the exclusivity of this particular shoe will diminish or be nonexistent once those replicas hit the market. Based on what I have seen so far, they're indistinguishable when compared to a retail version—and I'm usually pretty good at spotting out fakes. But hey, my opinion could and will probably change if I see them in person.

I typically don't mind going hard to get a shoe that is truly dope. For example, Yeezy 2s are a dope shoe regardless of exclusivity. But the 350s are an average looking shoe and the only thing that really sets them apart is the fact that they're hard to get.  Whatever though, appearance is subjective and this is just my opinion.

Just based on pictures and videos, there is literally not one difference. Check for yourself: just do a Youtube search for "Yeezy", and filter it by latest uploads.

If they ain't DOPE 2 you, Why? GO HARD then!
 
No matter how good the replicas optically get, there is one method to ultimately identify fufus as long as they are boxfresh. Do you remember the sweet smell of adidas factory glue when you first opened your brown adidas 350 shoebox, turtles or pirates? If you havent noticed yet it is a quite unique smell and it almost makes you feel "high". Inhale deep and remember this smell fam! Take a deep nose of this OG adidas odor! Fufus will NEVER smell the same as the OGs when you open the box. I always trust my nose!

They could be unauthorized products made in the same warehouse after Adidas orders were fulfilled.

I had no idea unauthorized adidas products existed.

The same factories responsible for "unauthorized" Jordans makes all brands. Adidas, under armor, LV. They don't specialize in one brand. Yeezy 350 boosts are on their 6th revision now for fakes I believe. I believe with every "batch" they're supposed to get closer to authentic.

When is NT going to retire the word unauthorized when we all know that counterfeit and fake are better descriptions of the copies that are bought direct from china.
