[Shellshock]

Simple solution: Smoke some weed, it's got this chemical in it called "fuck it" you should try it! Seriously though, I'm struggling to see any real problems that would be noticeable once the shoes are on you feet. You've already concluded that you can't return them so you're kinda stuck with them. Try removing the laces and ironing the eyestay then relacing?

I'm pretty sure I've brought a couple of pairs from peachsports a long time ago, from what I remember they were both b grades, maybe thats the issues with yours

P.S you're a bit mental aren't you

Can't quite remember where I bought a pair of vins a year of so ago that had a similar problem with shell. Other shell was squinting a bit but I managed to live with it.
If not then try Shellshocks method. I'm sure you'll forget that little nuisance in no time - as well as others

Peachsport are completely legit in my experience, have bought from them a few times.
He does sell b-grades occasionally, but lists them as such and they come in a white or plain box.

Yours look fine to me fella, I think it's just the case that that model of LTOs aren't built very well.

^^ What he said! Bought a few pairs from him and he always list them as b-grades if they are. Sometimes you get a crappy pair or a poorly made model in general, thats just the way it is unfortunately. No way they are fake.

Sorry guys. Have had some hectic life stuff going on.

@ Lorrie = $50/hr is pretty good; but don't plan to learn French
@ Shellshock = the "fuck it" chemical? never heard of it when it comes to spending hard earned money on Supes
@OG = mental? not when it comes to spending hard earned money on Supes. b grades? people can sell b grades? wtf
@ ez = i've never noticed this type of craftmanship in any of my other Supes; kind of odd i guess
@ Gee = thanks for legitimizing peachsports; mine had original box
@ vox = ditto

Mine weren't listed as B Grades. So you all have helped determine that they aren't fakes. Got it, thanks guys. Just the build quality is "different". They are comfy as heck as I walked around the house with them to determine if they are keepers. Thanks for your input guys. I appreciate it. Still waiting to see if peachsports has a better looking pair before I accept them and cross them off my "wish list".
