Air Jordan 13 Retro Ray Allen PE (boston home)

[thesurgeon]

But then again there is this legit/receipt in hand pair with the same stiching inconsistensy as that from Sneakerape and my Vmv Pair...So what's to believe?

 

[nystatenisland]

All this real/fake talk is getting out of hand. Next all of ya'll are going to be saying to not wear samples or friend and family releases because they didn't come out in retail stores so they are fake as well.

 

[riddla713]

^samples and f&f shoes are totally different than grey market overruns or factory variants, the samples and f&f shoes are actually authorized and sanctioned by nike. everyone has their own opinion and nobody is going to be able to change someone elses view on the subject. i look at unauthorized kicks as fakes but others are ok with them and they will purchase them and i wont, simple as that.

I can only say you are misinformed.  You do not understand how many factories there are here in Asia.  Between Pou Chen, Feng Tay, Dean shoes, and all their subsidiaries, there is no way for nike to control all the assessories.

Pou Chen and Feng Tay, usually only assembles shoes, while the subsidiaries under them produce materials, assessories and boxes.  I would even be surprised if they subcontracted the assessories parts to non-affiliated factories.  Bottomline, the only thing that is mostly the same is the shoe. 

  

so you are saying that you have copped kicks in asia from authorized retailers like hoops city or nt hk and they didnt have the same accessories or boxes as the pairs we get here in the states? thats the only thing i could be misinformed about because thats all i have stated. i never said one thing about pou chen or feng tay. and really yue yuen owns most of the factories that jordans are produced in, alot of jordans are produced in the no.3 fatory in the dounguan province i believe, just google it. they also produce reebok, new balance and adidas in the same factories owned by yue yuen.

mrnikeauthentic- no disrespect taken,at all. appreciate the pics and insight......Im still going with my gut and trusting the seller that my pair is authentic....maybe its one of the "unsanctioned" pairs but imo,it does not mean FAKE....FAKE to me is when another factory gets a hold of shoe and REPLICATES the shoe,at a different factory (not associated with nike) with somewhat different materials, piss poor quality, and some differences that you can easily distinguish between real and fake....yes my pair may have some excess glue here and there but nowhere near compared to what people posted, Ive bought Jordan shoes for RETAIL in stores with WORSE quality


this and the concord xi thread and release as a whole is JOKE...dudes like Randy and Jay,once who were "worshiped" for their early releases of hyped releases are now all of a sudden being crucified all over the internet.....i can only see this whole issue being solved one way....and that is if and only if Nike makes a PUBLIC statement regarding the issue...which i highly doubt

 

[phreshdude]

In my opinion i see that people hate to hear the truth! If your shoes are fake, their fake! i mean from what i've seen the evidence is overwhelming! The truth is that people who are making the fakes are getting a lot better!

Actually, I am saying, there are too many sources where these assessories are coming from.  Nike can hardly maintain consistency on all of their shoes, what makes you think, all the assessories coming in from all different factories are going to be 100% alike?  I am trying to tell you that, there are ways to identify fakes, but assessories is not the best way to go about it.  Its not an exact science that you out to make it seem like.  Aside from the really obvious fake tags and boxes(i am talking about the assessories that come with the fake retro jordans you can buy at sites for $70), assessories can differ in shades of color, slight difference in box dimension.  Try going through all the CDP boxes, i know i have a ton, few of them have same dimension while others dont, even though they are for the same sizes.  

I know this stuff, because i have done my own research and knowledge from friend who have worked at these very factories that produce the shoes you are buying in retail stores all across the globe.

You can choose to believe me or just keep doing what you have been doing in the past and be happy about it.  Its your choice.  I am simply sharing what i know to be true.

that cat looks pissed off

 

[eltouha]

he got shoes in a box with a suspicious stamp and eery paper

 

[eddo1005]

I actually attempted to purchase a pair of Ray XIII today from a buyer in Taipei. Upon inspection, the quality on them was pure horrid. Buyer said he purchased them off ebay. Were they fake, i dont know about that, but was the quality horrible? Yes, if that actually passed Nike's inspection.........then clearly nike isnt doing what its supposed to do.

 

[dro3000]

I should be getting mine today........I really hope Im not disappointed again........Ill post pics later tonight

[metallic]

Is it just me or does the hologram on the Footlocker pair look slanted

 

[bmoore34]

Maybe somebody pulled the ole switcharoo on you! the shell game! Put fakes in a legit box!

MAAAN I JUST DONT KNOW ANYMORE LMAO

My pair has black stitching under the insole...............smdh........anyone who got retail pairs, can you please tell me what color stitching you have??? We've seen white, grey, neon yellow and now I have black!

 

[dro3000]

Heres a pic of the stitching.......no stamp but I got one on the box lid.......from what Ive read, none of the Boston retail pairs had a stamp, only the Nike HK pairs from VMV had a stamp under the insole
EDIT****See below




Other than that, the hologram is crooked on the left shoe....again.....smh

Overall much more satisfied with this pair but still have some doubt........

EDIT 2*** These bishes are going back too

and Im officially done caring for this shoe, I almost HATE Ray Allen too now

 

[160jordansdeep]

where did you get your new pair from dro ?

 

[dro3000]

I got it from an iss'er with good feedback, got a receipt with the kicks. They look and feel much better than the first pair. Only thing I'm confused about now is the stitching on my pair VS the rest.

Crooked hologram sucks but not a big deal and not as bad as the first pair.
