Hey All,
Just got a pair of LQ's for £35 they seem ok but I'm sure that they are fakes, not to worried as didn't pay through the nose for them.
I was looking at the label on the box and comparing it to my NYC and Tokyo Cites boxes, it has the rounded corners and is pretty central. But my other half noticed that the top of the box looked different to the others, on closer inspection it seems that the "fakes" have all the printing done in bold and the orginals don't, this was mainly noticeable by the adidas symbol on the registered trade mark r and when you look at the Made in Indonesia writing.
I've now been and checked against all my other boxes, superstars, stan smiths and football boots and they are all writen in the normal type face.
I guess it is almost impssible to spot in photos I can't get a good enough pic...
