People are pretty much looking for stuff that's not there on those LC threads.  I posted up my own pair of legit Yeezy Solar Reds purchased from Nike Store asking for a legit check, because I wanted to see for myself if people could actually tell.  Several people thought they might be fake and had something off on them.  Point is if authentic pairs have flaws on them, you really don't even have a base line to judge on a GM pair.

Yeah now a days I just go on there to help or correct someone who's given a false classification. And that happens often. The other day I was arguing with someone because the person had only put up this picture in his LC.View media item 517620 I said it was a legit pair of 2000 concords. Then I found myself arguing with someone saying that one picture isn't enough to be able to tell if it is legit or not and that it wasn't enough to tell you what release it was. Anyone with decent exposure to 11s over the years can tell you that these are legit. This specific release is the only release of the concords with out a blue tinted sole (1996, 2011).

The LC thread is full of know it all wanna be "sneaker heads"
 
The db4 on rstor didn't show the jumpan in the insole. Then I saw kinstor had showed theirs but the jumpan in the insole was yellow. On the authentics the jumpman was green. I was thrown off at that. :rolleyes

Rstor and Kinstor are owned by the same person, I guess I'll be getting that one. Doesn't matter though, I'm good for as long as the flaws can't be seen on feet.

These Ebay pairs and Taobao pairs look identical. And the pricing on the Ebay pair ($215 shipped) looks too good to be true. IMO, these look a lot like the real shoe. Or maybe I just don't know Infrared 6s. I'm paranoid that I will buy grey market pairs for authentic prices.

EDIT: Just noticed lacelock is the wrong color. 

Taobao^

Ebay^

It would be interesting to see what happens if you were to file a claim on a gm shoe.

A little comparison to my RD shadows. Shadows are size 8 and Royals are size 8.5.

Even his own pairs don't match.

Just my observation, the size of the wings logo is somewhat similar to that of 1994 retro's. However the placement differs a little.

Just got my GM Royals from Rstor and they are on point, except they used the wrong ******* leather. It's much more smoother, shinier and softer on the GM pair. They remind me of the Nike Dunks. Oh well, I'll just use them as beaters. Will post a tease pics soon. I'll take the detailed pictures tomorrow when the sun is up. The lighting on my room sucks.

Here you go. The GM pairs are the one with the extra laces attached.

I don't know if you can see the difference since everything is the same except for the leather material they used.
