So I got these from eBay and I'm pretty sure that they are fakes but I'd like to get a second opinion from my SSDB family.

The other pair is definitely real but how about the other?
Serial numbers are different and laces looked alright to me.














Go ahead and use the poll.

I voted left because of the visible heel tab (nipple) and because of the shape of the heel tag and the size of the trefoil there. Then again I don't have these yet (still waiting on shipment) so I have no real-life comparison. Just my two cents...

i am incline to agree...... heel colour looks to light and the stitching is a bit scrapy

All that and if you take a look at the stripes you should see that there is something fishy going on.
That finally convinced me that they really are fakes. can you spot that?

Ok, i've already voted my reasons for the left being fake are,
1. The box label is wrong.
2. The lace 'clips' are wrong.
3. Highly visable nipple.
4. The trefoil Adidas writing is too pronounced.

But hey what do i know.

You didn't really provide clear shots of the stripes but they look like they have white edges. Definitive sea life.

And I agree with Errol that the lace jewel is a bit smudgy. Wouldn't have noticed anything wrong with the box label had it not been next to the authentic one... what are you seeing Errol? Just that there are differences, or do you actually see something that is a big red flag?

I think the lefts are fake. The orange stripe (with Missy`s pic on it) on photo 3 are bigger than the normal strips on the backs if `m right. I`m curious which ones are the fakes.

Right ones are my first 35th and they are real for sure. Left pair how ever is dodgy. Surprisingly good job though. Heel nipple is much smaler than in ones that I got couple of years ago. Also both shoes have different S/N and as said laces look almost as good as real ones.

I'm most curious about what you plan to do with them now...?

Sent mail to seller and asked my money back. Ones that is done I'm going to give them to some hobo. It's priceless to see smile on those guys faces. In fact you should try it some time by giving a half empty can of beer to a hobo

No, that`s not gonna happen again. Me and my friends gived some beers to a hobo last summer. We walked further with beer in our hands but behind us, the hobo gets a fine for drinking beer in public.

but I bet he was smiling when you gave him that beer. Also hobos don't have to pay fines. That just means a free meal and bed for the next night at drunk tank

The heel clit says they are fake but different serial numbers.... not cool that the fakers know about this.

The distance between the heelpatch and the sole is a lot bigger on the real ones.

And what EA said, the edges of the stripes are white.

I'm gonna check my own Missy's now

Ok Ea.
1. The fonts used are different.
2. There is i think a recyle sign in the fake label
3. The fake label is missing: Width: Largeur:

Shite quality box, fucked up label, heel clits. Done.
