Hey Guys, new to the forums. I was hoping for some help on some Concord XI's.

I've been out of the game so long that I ended up getting hit hard on a pair of Bred XI's. What I used to check for back then was just the 2 (space) 3 on the back, carbon fiber, and jumpman jordan third lace loop,  but now these fakes have gotten so good even the carbon fiber fooled me. It wasn't until I noticed that the spaced out 2-3 on the back wasn't the right proportion than I found out they were Jow-dans. So I'm hoping for some help here.

Here are the pics:

I know that by now those soles should have yellowed a bit, but other then that do you guys see anything else that's suspicious?

Any concord, SJ, CG, should have yellowing around the pods by now no matter how well stored. SO that tells you there they are probably fake like above. The 23s are off, PL is high, and sole arch is very high. 1000% fake

They're gm(grey market), i can almost guarantee it. They have all the right materials and what not but they dont have any yellowing and the 23 is off.... the two easiest tell tale signs of an unauthentic pair. I bet the trees are purple instead of blue, a red flag of gm's.

Stretched 23s and completely icy soles...  These are absolutely fake.

gm's ARE fakes, they do not use the same materials, just very similar. Shoe trees are supposed to be purple not blue on concords

THIS

Even though the shoes look like they used the same materials, they don't, you'll find out by wearing those fakes and seeing creases, sole separating and weird shape appearing after a few wears.
