Lovely pickups wildone, I love those yellow and orange metals. Sooooo jealous!
Nice job on the green 80s fieldsy (even though adidas stole the idea for green 80s from me Laughing )

The soles didn't come like that. It's painted on. But help me out guys. Some people are having doubts about their authenticity. What do you all think? Fake or not?

Please tell me why. Teaj, me and others have doubts. Doesn;t Superstar 3 suggest there is somehting fishy going on. It kinda gives me an iPhony-feeling.

Vern.. It doesn't matter how cheap they were. You mustn't buy fakes! Get a refund and distroy them!

To me the superstar IIIs look genuine, in terms of quality. I'm just not sure the Superstar III really existed?

These were a pair I ended up with a few years back and they were definite fakes.... but they look a lot worse than Robs (look at that box!!).

Perhaps those ones were just a fake version of Robs legit ones? But it's strange not to have more info around on the 'Superstar III' - they're nice shoes, not like Superstar 2Gs etc, but dont seem too different from IIs to warrant being called IIIs!

So they're genuine, quite rare and no-one knows much about them... there is something interesting about this case..

Rob they are definitely worth the purchase for the intrigue alone.

Hehe ... bought a similar pair on the bay a while ago. After looking at them I knew they were fake.
Seems that they had the same fty and art numbers as yours Tom. I got a refund and threw them in the bin.

Compared to a genuine pair the stitching was horrible.

Your pair is definitely looking better Rob but I would compare them to other pairs you have. Could help.

Like the green 80s fieldsy Cool

I think yours are fine Rob . . . I've got an identical pair I bought from Lurky and they're one of the comfiest pairs I have.
The flaking on the heel just happens with some old supes.
