Peeps, I recently bought a dead stock pair of lux's. They looked fine to me, diffrent serial numbers, no heel clits, great materials etc.

But I took some pics of my latest purchases today and noticed something really strange on the lux's:



NO STITCHING ON 2 OF THE THREE STRIPES!!!!!

All the other stripes do have stitching. I have never seen this before on any of my supes. Does this mean they must be fakes or did someone at QC miss this?

The shoes look great though, nothing tells me they are fake. What do you guys think?

eeerrrmmm that is slightly odd. Just checked my pair and all the stripes have stitching.

That's too obvious a miss, even for fakers...I'm betting it's a QC miss....somewhat easy to happen, given its easy to not see black stitching on black....only my opinion though Rob

[ez-1]

I'm with KT on this one. Maybe the line worker run out of thread.

[Tifoso]

Yeah, definitely fakes, Rob. I'll PM you my address and take them off your hands.

Forgive me lads.... What does "QC" mean?
Please teach me.

Cheers.

Quality Control.. Never mind. lolololo

It's a guy called queer Charlie that works at the Adidas factory .....

[benji]

Quality control.. check each pair for quality doc.

[Squeaky]

I guess it's a miss by Queer Charly then

[pokey27]

Queer Charlie strikes again..Its normally his mate Squeaky Steve who fucks up

Probably the same guy who forgot the blue metal eyelet in one of the pinstriped 80's I got from Lars

BTW: can you stick your fingers under the stripes or are they glued?

[Squeaky]

They are glued but only in the middle.

[Sneakerphile]

Having taken the stripes off a pair of supes in the past, I found that they are glued on and then stitched. So you should be fine with them, doubt they'll fall off.

[Squeaky]

I might use some extra glue to be sure
