finally found a person to size swap. super excited. hopefully will have them on feet by the end next week.
 
Wore mine yesterday for the first time.

I really love how comfortable they are, but I hate that the paint of the soles wears off on some parts
 
dang i would probably take that trade

That's what I wanted to trade them for but couldn't find anyone to do it straight up. I had one guy lined up but he wanted SBB 1, Chicago 1, or at least 250 cash on top. And they weren't even my size. I have both id rather keep both of them and the Boosts instead of getting those

WOW you were right.. the stitching down the middle is way off...without a real pair to compare to its dam near impossible to decipher to those who are trying to do LC's

makes me sick :x  yet also amazed :wow: , cause the primeknit is basically 100% identical now.. wow 


fore cereal, someone needs to sticky that post ^^ 


now that's ludacris. Won't be able to tell by the naked eye if you see someone walking by in them.
The agent said on Reddit he's contacting the factory so they can correct the stitching. Hopefully they won't be able to get it 100% correct.
 
out of curiousity how do u guys find these fake factory people/ and sites?

is there like a whole community of people who rock these joints?

Im sure there is a million ways to find them, but Youtube seems to be your main avenue of advertising. I see new Accounts and videos of fakes daily.
 
I still don't understand how all this fake stuff isn't illegal.
And Counterfeit "Anything" is illegal last time i checked.
 
 
Thats what I thought. So how do these end up making it into the U.S.??
Its not hard to mail a package to the states, customs is primarily searching for narcotics and weapons, so knock off stuff slides in on the daily, especially with private companies like UPS, DHL, ect.

They usually get busted when they bring in big shipments by the "Port Authority"

We had a big one this week in LA

If I was adidas or nike I wouldn't allow for fakes to even be made.

It's not worth the effort going dog the bounty hunter on fake manufacturers. Their biggest sales are most likely from highly sought after releases that are sold out. Nike has made all the money they are going to make off the release so why waste it chasing down the endless amount of reps

Believe or not, there is. It's mainly people who don't wanna pay the price of authentics. I was watching videos on YouTube a long time ago of fake 11s and there was actually a community of people teaching you how to bring the tag up on the 3rd space, redo the 23 to make it look authentic, make the carbon fiber look authentic, etc.

I don't blame them.

people buy engagement rings with a cubic zirconium center instead of a diamond.

People mod their cars to look like a sport edition.

There's even off brand cereal and groceries to literally everything made.

Depends on how you want to look at things.

Shoes are nothing special when it comes down to it. I give these Chinese companies props for how close in detail they get to the authentics.

fakes wouldn't be a as big of a problem if these companies made enough to go around.

Struck out on the turtles so the blacks will be had! I don't care for flashy or loud shoes so these will add some subtle heat to my collection.
Serious question, but if you struck out on doves, what will you do different that will make the blacks "had?" Pretty sure a lot of other people that passed on /struck out on doves will be trying even harder to get these as well. Not gonna lie, i got lucky AF when I saw adidas tweet the link and copped doves, and that's after striking out on almost every site.
 
I'm hoping the homey can come through for me like he did with the grey pair
