legit terrible second photo

Why do people not include pics of the bottoms of Concords (or any 11s for that matter)??? Thats really one of the few ways you can tell between a Taobao/Unauthorized/Mentalkicks/Kicksole pair and a "Authentic/Authorized" pair... They look good from those pics, but a LOT of those Unauthorized pairs look good too, until you get a close-up of the Carbon Fiber. If it's not a person I trust 1000% (which means VERY few people), I'd need pics of that carbon fiber before pulling the trigger, but that's just me. Peace

The jumpman on the sole seems to be too far from the white dot. The soles are also too fresh. They should show some sort of yellowing around the pods. The lace loops look a little tight as well. They should be a little loose around the laces. Check the 23 on the box as well. It should be deeply embossed and not just lightly stamped. Take pics of the production tag as well. I'm not a professional but I believe these are high quality fakes.

I thought about the yellowing as well, but did the Finish Line restock of the Concords during X-Mas have yellowing on 'em when they arrived? I didn't get to cop during the restock, so I can't say one way or the other.

Yes they did have yellowing because they haven't been reproduced for retailers and have just been held in the warehouse since 2011

based on these photos it his very hard to tell. It's almost like the seller is trying to avoid having the 23 visible. Not sure. Ask for better pics

The seller claims he purchased these from a nike outlet and they're b grades

That seller is avoiding shots of the two biggest giveaways: the 23 and carbon fiber. Not only that, but the shape of the shoe looks a little funny and the patent leather cut in the back looks a bit high.

Looks fake

 

[antc105]

Aside from the paten leather and carbon fiber even high quality fakes have 2 giveaways...the lace loops shouldn't be so tight and the stitching on the outer lower lace loop should start at the paten leather. another giveaway is the box. How deeply embossed is the 23? If its lightly stamped they're fake.

All those shots are angled so none clearly show any details you want to check. And if the seller is saying they are b-grades, i say they fake. I would stay away from these
