Thanks!!! But aren't they the same on the toe box @TIMMYBRIXXX & @cashm0neyand1? Do toe boxes differ in sizes of shoes? Thanks!!!

I asked the seller to provide me detailed and different angle of the patent leather on toe box. Is this long and what do you mean by long patent leather on toe box @cashm0neyand1? From where is it long? Thanks!!!

If it's a size 13 or something yeah it could effect it...However the toeboxs honestly are the least of your issues here ..Shapes off, rounded off midsoles at heels, high PL cut, the collars and tongues are terrible, 23s are incorrect..Print on paper is too dark etc. etc. Trust me when I tell you these are no good..

Yeah, make it happen because not all buyers are aware what is the meaning of "shape is off" "rounded midsoles at heels" "the collars and tongues are terrible" "23s are incorrect" it's easy to say these things really but can't understand by other people, like me. It's better if Niketalk can put up the differences with detailed pictures of the legit pair and the fakes.Didnt mean to bust balls..Im kinda a tough love kinda guy..We should sticky something explaining the lingo for everyone honestly..Ill make that happen...I just want you guys to familiarize yourselves with at least the terminology and stuff ya know..It helps with confusion and re explaining things over and over.

Honestly, very minimal difference i've found. The high pl cut is the only thing I noticed.

Well I do understand your point and i have made the post explaining the terminology..However most new guys won't even be able to see these very small differences we would be pointing out and explaining honestly. Also the fake manufacturers continue to try and make their products "better". So a pic from 3 months ago may not necessarily help today.. It's taken some of us years to develop an eye for these tells..It's not something that can be learned overnight.
Also it seems most of these newer guys don't want to do any of their own leg work..They would rather just come here and be spoon fed information..Im not saying this is your intent, but it is for 5/10 that want an LC..This will not help anyone develop their own skills in the long run IMO.. An it just makes us veterans have to explain the same thing over and over to each and every new guy who comes through with a pair of 11s they've recently bought online.. That's about 15 a day or more sometimes. We've tried to counteract that with this sticky.

"Shape is off" - Pretty self explanatory..This one will not jump out at most which is why you don't see it...However design and proportions are key..If a shoe is longer or taller or wider or for instance a toebox being shorter or longer...A tongue being shorter or longer..These are "tells" for Fake shoes not "flaws" from the manufacturing process..
"Rounded midsoles at heels" the midsoles are not shaped correctly..The back point should be taller and sharper..As seen in legit pairs..
"Fat tongues and collars"- The tongues and collars are over padded making the proportions of the ankle incorrect..A VERY common occurrence of the fakes..The collars should be nice and thin with a defined shape. Yours looks like someone padded it with packs of hotdogs..
"23s are incorrect" The font and spacing is incorrect.. Yes they are very close, but still no good..
The thing is all of this has been explained over and over and over and over and over in other countless threads..Look back on a 100 older Bred 11 threads or whatever it takes to help train your eyes to see these differences..The more pairs you study the easier it will get..It will just take a little time.
