Opinions on these please - teenageriot - 19-07-06

Hi guys.
Read the forums and havn't found this sellers name anywhere.
havn't seen too much about london fakes either.

I know it's probably too hard to tell from this one pic but just wondered what your first impressions are?
I have requested more pics from the seller so that should help things along.

thanks in advance.

Not sure, these have been faked.
Ideally we need to see the end of the box and the tags on the shoes.
Welcome to the DB.

The Londons have been faked and on first impressions these look fake. Just something not right about them. The box especially doesn't look as solid as it should be. He's also using generic photos for the close ups.
I would stay well clear, but than again i'm no specialist.

Ask them for pics of the tags if you can or the end of the box or the wrapping of the laces.
The writing on the side is also a give away but I haven't got a pair to compare it.

To be honest fella.. i quite often see the London and the (yuk)Paris ones in TK MAXX.. You won't get a box, but at least they're real and usually only about 25 notes..

I wouldn;t buy any anniversary superstars off ebay at all now. There are soo many fakes going around you just dont know what you will get.
People keep saying that adidas are suppose to be reissuing the general release anniversary shoes soon so you would be as well hanging off for a while or as $treak says check out your local TK Maxx.

I keep forgetting about that.
I just hope the NY's are the same as last year.
I suspect they won't be.

I would think that they would do something different to them. Cant see them releasing exactly the same shoe as last year. The box will probably be different too.
The New Yorks are one shoe i'm glad I bought 2 pairs, as I know it would have been one shoe I would be searching for in the future.

Yup, I never got a pair last year and now it's tough to find em in my size and for a good price without looking to the US market and risking customs charges etc

'schuhstore' on eBay UK had some SS Londons in size 9 recently, the winning bid was £31 plus p+p. I was going to bid on them, then realised they looked horrible
