I did this rough 'shop a while back for some NT folks.

Looks dope, I'm still looking for a pair of creams. Got a couple of the solebox though and I am so happy with them.

No dude the one you posted was like a weird hybrid of the 3M & OG.

We all freaked out because it was an incredibly obvious fake.

I guess my eyes are just bad on this one I guess - I never thought it looked like a 3M. I did, however, think it was not the greatest light pic and couldn't quite finger out exactly what was wrong with the boost. A few of the other things to look for seemed normal. I dunno man, either way, its not like we bought them.

Well I am glad I asked the experts then, because like I said, I wasn't quite sure what I was looking at.

If you knew OG, they do not have a glossy section on the heel cup. The knit pattern was way off and does not even have a clean line. Then the toebox knit color was way too light hence the 3m comment on those.

This might be why I like the sb colorway but doesn't bother me not copping since I have the creams haha.

The boost looked like a golfball....the heal cup was shiny and wrong shape. I think the pull tabs on the back went straight up basically if I remember correctly.

Yeah, largest I saw at Renarts was 11. Im still kicking myself for not biting the bullet on that. The time I decided to go for it after seeing @casper90403 on feet pic, it was gone.

I'll remind you...

Legit check please...

texian · Mar 31, 2016

I never noticed that shiny heel cap until just now. The pull tab can come in many angles depending on the way its been positioned. But for sure that heel cap is a huge difference.

I don't feel bad one bit. I asked because I myself did not, and could not, figure out what was exactly wrong - although I obviously knew something wasn't right. I have learned a great deal because of it. Not sweating it.., lol.

It would be neat if Adidas used their boost on dress shoe silhouettes like Nike did with the Cole Haan and lunar/free soles. Don't think Adidas owns any brand like that though....not yet.
