Official Air Jordan XI Concord Release thread 12/23/11 NO BUYING/SELLING/TRADING!

the "legit" pair PL cut on the right shoe, first pic, is actually HORRIBLE. its super low. smh

I'd rather have a higher PL cut then a low one.  I had got a pair of sz 11 on release and traded for a 10.5 to a friend. The cut on my sz 11 was so high I was a lil sour I traded. Then I noticed that on my 10.5 pair one cut was just slightly higher than the other shoe. Im still 1000% satisfied none the less. Just wanted to say i'd take a higher cut of pl anyday. Peace to the sneakergods.
 
Finally got to check out my pairs. The 2 I got from NDC look close to flawless while the quality of the one I got from FNL was eh but not horrible. 

Gotta say though, if those are really fake (the ones from Mental Kicks), they're pretty solid looking for fake. I'm more

 at how the fake shoe makers have the time/resources to make a fake look pretty dang close to the real thing; or maybe it's more of a reflection on JB and their lack of effort in making the real things

Does anyone notice the supposed "fake" pair from Mental Kicks looks more OG'*%! shape wise than the 2011's?? OG's had that shorter/taller toe box !

All my pairs from US and UK have a begining production date of 7/12/11 or 7/13/11 and end in september or october. The carbon fiber and patent leather cuts all vary with each shoe. not even the same when you compare the left and right shoe of a pair. Even the shades of sole vary slightly.


JB quality so shabby these days. There was a Nikestore pair that someone got, there was a split in the patent leather on the heel. was not even connected!!! Thats not a legit pair then right? from Nikestore?

Are we actually saying that too high of PL cut is not legit? Cant believe that BS. We always strive for high PL cuts on our pairs. The patent leather cut on the MK pair actually looks a lot better. Check your production dates
.

Whatever they may be. Its hit or miss with Jordans nowadays no matter where you buy from. I got some bad pairs, and good pairs from all that i purchased
Indeed, I totally agree. I bought 4 pairs from the same Nike store and each pair had various PL cuts. Even the shape of the shoes are different... 
 
Personally, from the pic of the MK vs legit pair side by side...the legit pair looked "taller"...

Also...just noticed all the Ciroc bottles

all this talk about differences between legit and non-legit.  if you're wearing your shoes, the average person (or maybe even expert person) would hardly be able to tell.  let me remind everyone of a legit pair i received from nikestore.com

Was that the only pair you copped? I would be really pissed if my one and only pair came out that way... What is wrong with the QA department at Nike!?!?
 
copped 2 pairs from nikestore.  1 good pair, and one shown above.  not sure wut im gonna do this this messed up pair...

nike did get me a 10% off coupon tho, as compensation.  so generous of them...

ummm...rock em?! i mean, if you're just talking about the creasing PL (that's all i see that's wrong maybe I need a new monitor)...their gonna crease regardless if you get em pre creased or not after you wear em anyways.
 
I give up on tryna get these for retail. It's literally impossible now.

I ended up using the money for the Derrick Rose 2's

Theyre legit pairs. quality isnt the same as it was 10 years ago. even those super early pairs are legit, just very very bad quality aka early production. just not worth it when youre paying so much more for those early pairs.

Did the same with my two from NDC. Matched the best shoes together and have them hiding away in the ice box. The other pair will become the beaters for the years to come.

just wait for a sec...prices are DROPPING in ebay. thats what I'm doing. When it hovers around the high 200s thats when Ill cop
 
MAXDUNKER give it up mate.
you bought FAKES so stop trying to tell everyone else who got an early releasae/FAKE pair that they are alright.
FAKES/UNATHORISED will always be FAKE/UNATHORISED.
SMFH.
 
damn Mental Kicks just lost a lot of customers tonight with that doubt put in their head. I've purchased from them before and had no issues. It's a Yahoo e-commence site with very little communication but the one time I copped was fine.
 
Yal dudes are some clowns, talking bout you would rather have the non legit pair because it looks more OG
30t6p3b.gif
. This is why the game is messed up now, if you want OG shape buy OGs not retro's. If you cant tell that the mental kicks pair is fake then something is wrong with your eyes. That pair is CLEARLY fake. NT has changed so much over the years its crazy. You would think we are the most knowledgable but there are dudes that really believe these SUPER FAKES are real shoes smh.
