Nike x Fear of God Collab - Official Thread (Air Raid F&F IG Shock Drop 10/8 )

There’s different quality levels in fakes. More expensive fakes are better quality. A lot of times there’s multiple versions of fakes that are released or a certain seller specializes in that particular model for fakes (I’m still trying to understand it all). The current best quality FOG 1 are “H12 batch” I believe. Most cheap versions have the lose neck flaw or the height issue. The more expensive ones are damn near flawless. When you consider the flaws we get on retails, they’re definitely passable.

I've seen "H12" FoG1s. They have that terrible shape to them too...

there’s 1.0 H12 and then there’s 2.0 H12. That first pair is 2.0. The most recent I posted is 1.0

You can't sit there and tell me the shape of these are good. If they take it at a certain angle where you can't see the entire shape, they might be able to fool you. But once you see that side profile, it's a wrap.

Here's the latest "H12" OG Black FoG 1 - look at the shape:

Here's the latest "H12" Triple Black FoG1:

I’ve already mentioned the flaws on pairs. I also said there’s different batches and sellers have different qualities. All I’m saying is that there’s pairs out there that can pass as retail and that they’re only getting better. Within a month they’ll be another update as they continue to critique their flaws on the design. FOG 1 aren’t nearly as high in demand. There’s Union 1’s, Off white Jordan 5’s, Travis Scott AF1 and Jordan 1’s that are practically 1:1. They push out more batches of those because they’re extremely popular.

Also, neither of those look like 2.0. Very few sellers actually have 2.0. Yes, there’s fakes of fakes lol.

Man I just want to know if mine are real

 

[september29]

U guys weren’t lying when u said these were hard to put on and take off.

 

[kanyeezy411]

Yea at first I thought it was just the lighting Or the lace swap but nah they different. Funny thing is when they hit for that price I told my man that use to work there that they were gonna be fake. Guess I screwed myself

damn like wtf crazy.

Have you compared the inside built of them after removing the insole?

yup did thst last night. I think ima just wait for stock x’ s response then just cop another pair. Real or not I think the flaws will bug me to much. I guess I’ve been spoiled by my other pairs

 

[shaneywhanie]

Can’t wait to wear my first pair of 1s once quarantine ends

 

[kungfu koala]

Aÿ to y'all with SAs and OGs; are lace lengths the same on both?
Someone offered me a pair but I'm thinking they might be short and i don't want him to bother for none.

SA laces are longer than OG laces. But with OG blacks you get the longer replacement laces which are longer than SAs

Perfect! These are black SA laces and I prefer it longer (pause lol).
I'd appreciate it if anybody could hook me up with longer white laces. Or recommendations on alternatives...

I thought SA laces were the shortest of them all, never compared them to the regular ones in the 1's

 

[hutchie]

Lol what!

 

[King21Rich]

Man I’m done with the sizing question but man that pic makes me even more sad

 

[vinotwofour]

half size down works too. Most people thats swearing that TTS is the only way, are people that don't have half size down to compare.

 

[MambaForever]

smh @ the idiot asking "what you got in that bag"

 

[downyboy]

I have TTS and half size down, still think TTS is right for me.

sizing is more complicated than people realize. taking advice from a stranger online is generally not very helpful. you have to know alot about a person (arch, width, weight etc) to really get a good comparison in sizing.

 

[MambaForever]

Lazaro works directly with Jerry at FOG. Pretty sure he's been with him since FOG's beginning. So he's not just a random "stranger" online.

 

[downyboy]

I was speaking generally, not about him in particular.

 

[MambaForever]

^
Ah, gotcha

 

[jopx]

.5 size down would be a total waste of money for me... TTS is perfect but as downyboy just explained, there is no exact science - too many factors from person to person. That is why trying on before buying is the only sure shot. I have tried on shoes (i.e. Kyries) that don't fit me period, the shoe is made too narrow midfoot. I tried on 1.5 size up from my retro Jordan size and it was still a hell nahhh…. I can get em' on, but it was not comfortable and I would never rock them just cause I like the shoe and they feel like ****.

 

[kungfu koala]

SAs get 0 luv.

 

[hutchie]

Black sa’s shouldve had a different upper material. Reckon an all white SA with black swosh wouldve been fire

Funny, as they're my fav. Though I don't own any so I can't speak on quality.
I just like that slick look.
So can anyone recommend some replacement laces??????
