RE: my collection
Sweet collection Monica, I have to say I also thought "oh no!" when I saw your LQ's.

RE: my collection
Monica, I believe that is what theyrefer to as a "sweet Ass" collection. Some choice kicks. Those Gruns actually look pretty good.
Keep up the good work!
I like to move it move it!

RE: my collection
Yes, I have a feeling the LQ's were fakes for awhile. I got them on ebay a long time ago. The stripes were too funny for my taste as well as the back ends of them. I can take a pic of the box too. It sucks to have fakes.

The thing that looks shady on the LQ's is the placement of the windows, writing and black section in relation to the front of the shoe.
Legit LQ have stripes and back ends that are a bit different from other superstars.... Plasticy, they're achilles killers.
Take some higher resolution photos from several angles, including the bottoms of the shoes and shoe the front section up close and we can know for sure... doesn't look good though.
Also, check the serial numbers on the inside of the tongues, if they are the same on both shoes, they're definitely fakes... keep in mind, if they're different, that doesn't mean that they're definitely legit.

RE: my collection
Can you take a pic of the box label Mon?
Are your spare laces still in the bag? Do you still have the plastic tag holders?
The colours look wrong but it could just be the lighting of these pics.
The transparent stripes look more brown than the red/brown colour of legit
pairs and the print looks too glossy.
Me thinks it's time I did a photo comparison for the peeps with legit/fakes side by side.

I do have the laces bag, I don't have the box anymore. I would have to look and see if I have the tag.

RE: my collection
The picture of the spare laces in their bag would only be worthwhile if they were still taped up.
The plastic tie that holds the tags is the other thing that would be good, on genuine pairs it has
a flat tab before the hole (eyelet) the pointed end goes through and on fakes it just goes straight
to the eyelet.
