Samples are marked as samples, dont have boxes and are size US 9 / UK 8.5 (in most cases). The guy has bought some fakes unfortunately. I'm sure that will be confirmed if he tells us the website he bought them from.

True dat Teaj, i asked about the site and it has vanished along with his hard earnt I think these are test questions.

[Fritze]

Mhhh .... if it was a sample it should be stated that this is a sample. Like this one.

Haven't we already confirmed the ART Number belongs i believe to this model:

They are g17706 I think

[lorre]

Wrong person oooppppsss, that is it then bogus number , bogus shoes.

[Sweet_Kicks]

They're fake and G17706 is a superstar vin black/black

[darula]

...G17706 is a superstar vin black/black

that´s what the mediabase says...but believe me...the base is on the dark side...
the g17706 is the deathstar vin
g17708 is hte superstr II darth
officially. That doesn´t mean there are no "fac.defs not in production" out there with the same art.nr. like the "in production"´s

Hey Fritze,
Samples in UK9? Wie kommts?

[Fritze]

Frag mich nicht. Aktuelle Auktion auf ebay

---

And I'm asking myself, how do you know? Do they sell stuff like that in Herzo?

[ez-1]

I'm sorry Lars. If the S/N is same in both shoes they are fakes and to be honest there are other signs as well.

[Sweet_Kicks]

Not debating that G17708 is the superstar 2 Darth, we're just saying that what the guy has bought it not a legitimate version of the model.

Factory defects are just that defects (as in minor mistakes), there are far to many 'big' differences on the shoes bought, compared to a legitimate version for them to a defect, so therefore are fake, doesn’t matter where is was made or who by.

adidas do let some qc questionable product out of the factories (just ask dutch Bobby ), but there is no way on earth they would let that go into retail, nor would any half decent legitimate shop sell it having seen a legitimate sample at sell-in.

Hi E, yeah samples have been uk 8.5 for ages and will have sample either printed on the inside of the heel lining or on theinside tongue label or both

Cheers

I agree with u: Usual ShoeSampleSize is UK8,5 an Cloth is M or 38
So...fritze´s samples are fake...cause they are uk9???
NOO! U can buy samples in Herzo in size UK12 UK9,5 UK...
The size is def. no indicator for a sample!

Darula read my post above yours.

[mr.pure]

Since when are you an authority on fakes, Da(not)rula ?
They are clearly fake, FFS !

[darula]

Darula read my post above yours.

I did...so u should read my posts too...
I also said...it is no "sample"
A "sample" as u see it, is ALWAYS an article that goes into production. And it says sample on the tongue. But the are fact.defs. out there without "sample" on the tongue or on the inside of the shoe.
