dug up my royal's from the closet and glitter is starting to pop up. i know it's been asked multiple times, still i gotta ask: what product(s) did folks use to get rid of the glitter?

 

[vinotwofour]

Meguiars wipes but the glitter comes back.

 

[126006]

Yep I use meguiars once every two weeks on my black based shoes.

Tedious hobby

 

[126006]

Very tedious.

didn't someone here find a leather conditioner or something? I forgot if it was echau or bbkang

“F” Stockx, bought a pair of bred toes 2 years ago. Sold them on Goat and they deemed it fake. Just got them back and can confirm they are indeed fake.

Got pics?

You didn't double check them when you first got them in?

Shouldn’t have to for the money I’m sure he paid. I thought that was the point of buying from them.

 

[jordanhead718212]

Lol all them horror stories about people allegedly receiving fakes from StockX, and you don't check after??? None of these places are gonna catch 100% of fakes, so yes, it's still necessary to check. You're only getting that peace of mind if you buy directly from an authorized retailer.

Speaking of fakes, can I get some help from a resident expert on some Jordan 1 85s? I'm like 99% sure they fake, but wanted some outside opinions.

LC - Jordan 1 85 Reverse Bred

Need some help with this one. Currently leaning fake. Thanks in advance!

Would appreciate comments in that thread if possible.

Sorry if I should be soliciting help here.

My dumb*** didn’t

Recently unloaded my Royals and Bred will probably follow. 2 less pairs to worry about glitter.

To your defense, I didn’t really hear about fakes getting thru Stockx back when bred toes came out... I could be wrong but personally I started hearing about it when TS1 highs hit

Is it a guaranteed thing for the breds from '16 and royals from '17 to get the glitter effect? Was just thinking of picking up a pair for royals, but might just wait for the inevitable retro of these if that's the case.

Post up them pics

I sold both my pairs of ‘17 Royals, the glitter was ridiculous. One pair also started to show some pitting after wiping off the glitter.

As far as I can tell it goes back to ‘13 black toes. It’s whatever they put on the black parts to make them shine.

 

[kurr]

Yup. It started in '13. I even had some on my SBB. Which made it easier to let go. The older I get, I just can't settle knowing that they're are better crafted commodities for my feet. Reminds me of how cars are built not to last.
