Today I tried consigning at flightclub for a second time and they told me they're fake. The first time they told me everything was good except the holes on the toe box were too big and now they told me the inside of the shoe between the 1-3 lace **** padding wasn't "padded enough" and the shape was wrong. these are a size 10 ds. I want to sell them but I don't want to trick anyone. these were purchased at footlocker. I don't know why they would say they're fake. Despite having these legit checked by multiple informed people including knowing they're 100 % real before I purchased I'm finding a hard time selling. Even though I paid a lot for them I'm considering just wearing them cuz it's so hard to sell. I'm only asking $700. I'm just frustrated.

too me the toe box looks a bit off. the perforations on the toe box... everything else looks good. wait for more responses. if you personally bought these from footlocker then these should be 100% legit

You must also remember that having a legit check from NT and Flight club is the opinions of people who have knowledge of what the real shoes should be like though Flight club is A very credible source, people can be wrong were not always correct. Yet if you know they were purchased from footlocker then Without a doubt their 100% Authentic shoes, if footlocker were to ever sale someone fake shoes then that person would have a large settlement from that from violations of contract to false advertisement etc.. So If u know that they were purchased from a retailer then screw the opinions, though the flight club representatives know a lot about the shoes they don't have the complete dimension jordan brand set for this shoe and every shoe is Not exactly the same, so little things can be nicked picked on every shoe.

They shot you down again? WTF is FC doing over there? Sounds like these cats need an optometrist appointment..They show NONE of the normal tells for Fake Royals man??? No widows peaks, leather is correct, toe box shape is correct as well as general shape, NA logo is right, [emoji]174[/emoji] logo on box is correct, Swoosh is correct shape, Size tag checks out, lace bag is correct, sole mold is correct as well.. I'm standing by my original assessment and still saying legit.. It really sucks to see them turn you away on some BS man..

You should have stood your ground and respectively asked them to prove it.. Show you a pic online of these fakes for sale then.. I would bet they can't..
I was one of the 1st to oust these Royal fakes and I use a 9-10 point checklist to prove authenticity.. I'm sticking to my guns here..Amount of padding could EASILY be a simple QC issue.. FC just lost a little respect and street cred in my eyes..They dropped the ball here..

Look good to me from what I can tell from lurking on this forum.

If you want to get rid of them that bad... then how much would you take?  My size in a shoe I'm after.  Shoot me a PM if you're interested

Best believe flightclub only accepts real royals if they shut you down its for a reason of you feel like their real ask them to bring up a pair in the same size and ask for the differences they check for the padding when they Check for royals

These are legit or they're the greatest fake of all time.

Perhaps they turned you away because of the different dates on the size tags?

Their loss if you ask me. What a bunch of morons.

This is the kind of stuff that irritates me, especially with all the resources available online. How can they not know the difference? It's their job.
