The holograms are definitely missing and the insoles are not as bright as they seem to be in adi website pics

some of the website pics/info is actually a little misguiding. For instance th 35th adicolors are shown with various colored fat laces, but they actually come with regular 'skinny' laces. Also, Upper Playgrounds are listed as being a vintage model although they're clearly a Superstar II (with a vintage colored sole though).

I agree these IBs look to good to be fake, even though the logo on the heal isn't too clear. Personally I wouldn't mind as I think they look better without it...LOL...

Yup - 100% sure these are the real deal after checking out the auction - the seller has 100% positive feedback - i reckon that's why he gave the refund to the last high bidder as he wasn't happy.

If you check out all his previous listings, you can see he's very proud of his 100% feedback & 5 years trading on ebay!

His listings also stated "say no 2 fakes" which 2 me means he knows the score

Hi There,

Did you ever work out whether those Ian Browns were fake or not? You referred to missing holograms... What are they?

Cheers,

Damien

PS I know you bought them 2 years ago so sorry to hassle.
