We aint talking bout other shoes and other soles
But Those oreos dont have blue tinted soles now do they?
The soles that are coming on your grey market xi are the same as the concord and cg xi
Buy em and use your own pics, not pics from someone trying to make their money

I been following Niketalk for years now, and I always see ninjahood make the same argument..So I have come to a conclusion, in which we all should have came to by now..
This ninja got mad air randys in the crib. Stop defending fakes bro, it really dont look "kool". "Da joints is fake b."
IDGAF.

So will ninjahood and everyone just answer me one question. Or at least clarify.
u said before that these new SJ grey markets are using the blue tinted soles from concords and cg ci, hence they look "fresh" correct?

They certainly arent... the taobaos have a great shape and look on point like all authenticated XIs since the CGs... while the 2009s look like legalized fakes :x
The shape is not identical to 2009 pairs because these are being made currently with the same improved molds used on the '10 CGs, '11 Concords and '12 breds.
lol @ some of these newbies and their oh so precious "authenticated" 2009 SJs... Those shoes were made from the same crap molds as the CDP and Silver Anniversary
Heres my new rule of thumb... if they aint 2001 SJs with "JAM" on the tongue..... YOU AINT ROCKING REAL JAMZ !!!!

Oh and i was at that game the jags dude meme was at. I was doin the same thing. Although taking that time out (which dude was baffled by) did get us an extra monday night football game to beat the ravens on the next year. Espn asked us to take it for commercial revenue since game was over.

If i could just get clarification on the sole issue
U said before its same as concord and cg xi
All grey market SJ ive seen in person and people selling online have had the blue tinted concord/cg soles (except those taobao pics)
If im just finding the anomaly, lemme know.

If the grey market xi are like these
View media item 425035
Then they will not yellow like the 2009 pair.
The sole on my concords (what i think is on the taobao pairs) is clearly yellowing differently
View media item 425039
The sole on the left will NEVER look like the one on the right

Dude if the SJs have flaws trust there will be flaws found on each one if not obvious by eyes. Don't try and change up your argument now that he's proven you wrong.

fyi: the first year/s of grey jams being on the market, they had the same clear soles as the retail version. this changed up to a blue tint a bit down the track.

Thank you sir for that. So then, we WILL be able to tell between the new ones and real space jams
The old ones not so much haha. Except that ugly mushed 23 and small cotton tab that holds it

who got proven wrong? not me.. no one here is hiding da fact that they're grey market, what you seem to be STUBBORN about is da fact they're
made identical to da retail pairs, and this goes BEYOND space jams..

you're splitting hairs b....
grey markets are identical from their retail counterparts, which when you boil down my ENTIRE argument you CANT call em fake.

Made identical??? So fake right? Since they are no longer identical or the same shoe. Stop going back and fourth and admit your argument was flawed. You still maybe right but your point was disproving and actually took out one of the few things that could help you. I say you get those sources on the phone and tell them they lied to you

Interesting point.... If they drop "grey markets" pairs for the bred 11's next year its going to be IMPOSSIBLE to tell if a grey market/ authentic simply for the fact that the base all of your arguments of is based on how yellowed a sole is. How you going to tell with the bred sole? When i had my 2001's the sole looked just like my cdp's.
You guys are basing everything off of the fact if the sole is yellow. If there is another way to differentiate the two let me know, we already established on the earlier pages that NO TWO PAIRS HAVE THE SAME PATENT LEATHER CUT... when you guys figure out another way of authenticating the shoe let me know. I understand the fact that they arent made during nike hour's, and all of your arguments but in reality in a year or two when theose soles have the yellow around the pod's youre not going to be able to tell the difference.

Most grey markets are nearly identical. Til u buy em and prove us all wrong
U said they were identical
Those space jams have two differences, now 3, ( pl cut, sole color, mushed 23 and smaller coton tab) which u acknowledged
U blabbed bout og xi as an excuse for patent cut, a million things beating around the bush about the soles the same as concord and cg xi, and now no excuse for mashed up 23 and cotton tab where such is placed
While most might be NEARLY identical to retail ( you dont have any other grey market jordans to compare, nor pics)
The space jams are not

i skimmed through the last few pages but you guys need to stop with the cut of the patent leather, its pretty much different on every shoe made..
how long you dudes been collecting? seriously.
take 50 pairs of XI breds from December and you will get a bunch of different cuts.
