Thanks in advance

These are fake.
The orange leather is wrong, it should be slightly tumbled, and it should be a lighter shade of orange. The perforations on the toe box are not cleanly cut out and they should be. The toe box shape is also a bit too boxy. The Insoles have the wrong design and the font of the size sticker is slightly off. The lines on the box label are slightly too bold in my opinion. On the back of the ankle at the top, where the leather and mesh meet, is too sloppy on the right shoe. Swoosh look slightly to wide. Lace bag and extra white laces are not correct.

eBay seller calisnkrs sells fake Air Jordan 1's. All of them are fake, that's why his prices are better then normal.
 
For sheer entertainment Im following this discussion. So now, the insole is the tell. Show pics of Real, to this guys pics please. If the shoe is fake, the insole is gonna be the last thing you see before everything on the actual shoe itself.

That insole was first thing I checked when I saw this thread, for other shoes I would not really check that, but I know they make mistakes on these. Hopefully you learn something new from this since you do help others.



I wont put every flaw I see, but here are some on the left insole:

I am not sure if you were following that thread, you did comment on it. Here is the link https://niketalk.com/threads/jordan-1-shattered-backboard-legit-check-please.679392/ You can see more photos on his comparison of the fakes vs his StockX pair, although his fake pair was not as good as this one.
 
Toe Box comparison:

As I mentioned before, the leather is not right, the perforations are sloppy, and the shape of the toe box is off.

No replica sellers, to my knowledge, have gotten the leather right, but they are close. They have gotten the swoosh right. They are also very good at making the shape of the shoe correct, they got much better at getting an hourglass shape, and the toe boxes are looking more sleek in my opinion.
