View media item 1314714I bought these from Craigslist off some dude for 180. I know it was a bad idea haha. As you can see the shoes have two different dates on them. I guess this means they are from two different sources? These are my first pair of 7s I have no clue how to tell if real. These might be the first pair of fake bordeaux's i've see on this forum. The material however seems to be really good quality. The jumpman is what really concerns me though. thanks guys.

Ahh okay, that at least lessens my concerns. But did you see the placement of the jumpman on the side of both shoes? Also the tongue on the left one sticks up a little less high than the other. Overall you can see that both shoes do not really match. Some of the peaks on the outsole of the left shoe are not as pointy as the ones on the right. so confusing to me. but i do appreciate the feedback, it keeps me more sane.
 
Def legit..Different dates are normal.. Jumpman placement is fine.. differences between 2 shoes are normal..They are hand made, it happens..You are just picking bro 100% Legit IMO.

NP man.. Glad to help..One last check you can do is push in on the edge of the toebox where the tips of your toes would go..Legit pairs toeboxs are firm, they are solid where as the fakes are of thinner/cheaper material that will flex much easier and be more prone to creasing and cracking with extended wear. This is a good hands on test for 7s.
