Are all adidas goods that come from Hong Kong fake? Im in the market for a new backpack/messenger bag and found a few nice adidas originals bags but so far all of them are from Hong Kong... Any advice?

Not all...I bought my Star Wars Yoda's from Hong Kong and they are legit...scared the fook outta me though. I wouldn't recommend it and would avoid at all costs if possible. Takes forever to ship also...and the language barrier really sucks.

best to stay away.
been using a messenger bag for years and years and my favourites are still jack spade and acme. both are pretty indestructible and i tend to make things destruct pretty readily.

Tough call really...HK is one of the best places to get gear - be it online/in person...also can be one of the worst places, given its proximity/business sense to China....boils down to buyer beware and due diligence...agree with whats been said - not all are fake, some are legit - but if in doubt, don't pull the string...Zwers on the ball though re: mesngr bags - J Spade (and I like Porter) are simple, tough, and will last until your kids use em...

KT, where you get a Porter bag? Any place in Toronto carry them?

Dirty i don't know whether your referring to an ebay seller named buinick who's hong-kong based but he's got some msg bags and sells mainly adidas??? but if he's legit m8 and really good service as well so if it is him your on about your safe.IMO he's alittle pricey though on some stuff
Hope that helps
It's not the size of the feet!!it's the amount of quality on em
