These just don't look right. Been looking for these for a while, but decided to make sure before I bought. Was there ever a conclusion about this seller?

Here's the link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Adidas-Superstar-Men...286.c0.m14

look at the shelltoe in the last 2 photos...

I always thought they were real, just old.

really? that wierd 3 line bit on the shell?
the first photo they use its a normal shell

Steve o, I had to go and find this picture, just for you, so you better appreciate this

Check the lines out on the shell of this pair of oldies...

Those pics in that link... If thats a heal clit in that one image Ill admit defeat.

It is a heel clit Jam and there are 3 lines on the front of the toe of these and 2 on the pic you supplied.

No theres definetely 3 lines on the pic I posted.

So there is, not as glaringly obvious as the ebay pic, so either they're fake or very badly made
Also the 1st photo's shelltoe is different to the others.

The ones in jam's pic are surely fake. From what i have gathered, only vins have the 3-line shells, all the non-vin soops have 2-line shells.

not true.. most pre 95ish shells have 3 stripes on the shell.

Ahh heck i should have known.. Not seen that old soops in years and don't actually own any myself either so kinda believed all of them were like the ones i have.

*edit* now that i've checked at shellpros for some 90s' shells, i guess i should go into the corner for a while.

lol Jam I'm an idiot... I'm wearing 80s right now and they've got 3 stripes hahaha
but the stiching is directly under the bottom stripe and the gap between stripes is pretty close like your photo
the ebay pic looks poorly constructed and the spacing and line-to-shell comparison looks like theres too much spacing between lines and not enough shell if that makes sense?

just got a pair of fake jeremy scotts from this guy (js logo purp/yellow colorway)

tell tale signs theyre fake:
-snake skin pattern doesnt go in direction as the stripe
-snake skin pattern isnt high quality
-heel quality is very low
-there's a heel tag on te back instead of a straight cut
-straight up just doesnt feel like an adidas sneaker.

Other than Sneakerphile we don't give a monkey's about them Jeremy Scott's and mostly only care about Superstars in here.
But cheers for the info.
