I’ll come back in 2015…
Just ordered these
^Sorry to say this, but I’m 100% certain you bought a fake.
I checked out that website just now, and everything about the site screams SCAM.
They have tons of rare kicks listed there (Air Jordan XI Space Jam, Zoom Kobe V Big Stage pack, Zoom Kobe V Bruce Lee, Air Max LeBron VII MVP, etc.) that you shouldn’t be able to buy for no less than $300+ for any of them, plus there are colorways of some shoes that don’t even exist = fakes.
If it’s not too late, you should try to get your money back.
Wow really? I’m not exactly a shoe connoisseur, but the site seemed pretty legit to me…
It’d suck if they’re fake. I REALLY like the color scheme on those and couldn’t find them on any other site.
I think I’ll take your advice and try to dispute this with paypal lol
The way fakes are made is that Chinese factories let pairs of legit shoes ‘leak’ to bootleggers that run factories of fakes. They then take apart the shoes, study them inside out and produce the fakes to look as close to the real things possible, so unless you’re a sneakerhead they can be hard to tell.
But yea, that site is full of fakes. Good thing you said PayPal (although it still sucks that you paid them), cus you could have been majorly fucked for giving shady bastards like that your credit card number.
Hmmm…so do you think ALL the kicks on that site are fake? Literally all of them?
How would you compare the longevity of fakes vs reals? Practically I mean. Exactly how bad is the craftsmanship compared to their official counterparts?
And yeah I paid through paypal…and at any rate, they were only $80. It’s not like I paid an arm and a leg. I might not even try to get my money back, I dunno. Like I say I really like that color scheme, even if they are fakes…
latest pickups…

i can’t decide if i wanna keep these or not. they look better in pics than in person IMO.
To me, they’re still the best Nike kicks of 2010. But I think I know what you mean. They look amazing in bright light, vibrant photo blue… but in lesser light they look kind of green-ish (or ‘mint’ as it says on the box).
Well…those (fake) kicks just got here. They look like hot garbage. :lol: They look so much shittier in person than they did in the pics it’s not even funny. And they smell like a vietnamese sweatshop. I’m definitely gonna dispute this with paypal. All I can say is lesson learned…lesson fucking learned. Never again will I order some kicks from some obscure website without doing some research first.
I’m about to order these now though:

OTW Collection Alomar
shoes
Spoiler
Best shoes that costed under $100 that I’ve bought. Noel approves of these kicks. :tup:
I put them all up at eBay starting bid prices so ask me now if you want them for cheap.
Air Jordan XIII - Altitude




The shoe used more synthetic leather than I originally expected, but the overall construction is decent nonetheless. I’m glad I skipped on Flints and got 2 pairs of Altitudes instead. These went quick while the Flints are still everywhere.
Those are sick. Altitudes > Flints, all day
love those jordan shoes. I have the red version.
Whoa~ I didn’t know we had dedicated sneakerheads on SRK. Nice to meet you guys.
I’ll post up my collection soon.
