People say I am being nitpicky but look at this scratch
View media item 1087188
Also the tumbled leather is not applied evenly. I thought it was a precrease on the toebox at first. I didnt mind that one tho

Those are fake; look at the Nike Air on the insole. Real ones have an 'A' that is pointed on top; fakes are flat.

The letter "A" should have a pointed top, not a flat top
The two lines should come to a point

That's the first fake pair I seen with decent elephant print tho. Usually they are way off.

Look at the Nike Air on the INSOLE.
The "K" and the "E" are not touching. The "R" is clearly in the wrong font,

The backtab was also off too. The letters in AIR are not the same size. The A is smaller

These are straight from NDC.
But they weren't from the original February drop. It's from the re-drop a few months later when they set a date sometime in May.
So what I'm thinking is, how would Nike know if they got a fake pair sent back to them, or Right side real, left side fake? I haven't worn them yet because I just feel awkward wearing these and it's so noticeable. Especially On Feet, and you look at it, it slants downwards. The left side.
Thoughts??

If they are from NDC you're good. I've never in all my years of buying shoes heard anyone get a fake from NDC. I see the slant you are talking about. That can be JB quality control, which we all know it's been is poor.
If you have any doubts about the legitimacy, you can always do a legit check.

If we can't buy from NDC anymore without having peace of mind, who can we trust? Shoes look on point to me. It's quite common for the eprints to differ from one shoe to the other in a pair. Everything else on the shoes is on point as well. Wouldn't hurt to post these up in the JB legit check section tho, even if it's just for a reference.

I have always wondered with how good fake and GM pairs are, especially GM, if people have bought a GM pair and a real pair and then put the GM pair in the real box and returned it. That pair would likely end up in a restock. I doubt the person handling the returns is an expert. He is just doing his job. "This seem legit to me" then stocks em on shelves for later.

GM and fake are the same thing. They're both 100% fake. There are jus some bootlegs that are better than others, but they're all still equally fake. And there's more to a show than just how it looks on the outside.
