This - I went back to the swap one shoe out just for this reason yesterday. After trying them on at home, I just couldn't take looking down at one shoe that was super tumbled and the other looked 90% smooth. You had to hold it close up just to tell it was barely tumbled. SMH...agitation resolved.Originally Posted by rauls054
I know some of you don't have the luxury to go out and get your kicks. So you have to resolve to buy online which sucks because your not able to inspect your kicks.I personally saw some of these at the mall with flaws glue stains also one shoe the leather looked more tumbled than the other shoe .also most of these came pre creased there's nothing you can do about it.I have a feeling some of you are going to be disappointed with some of your pairs. I'm happy with my 2 pairs which I had the luxury to inspect the quality on these are good imo I'm just saying they are some flaws on these and other retros.we just have learn to live with it.
If you dont mind my asking, how did it smell? Did it had like a thick paint smell?Originally Posted by jaysexxin
The smell is completely different of that from the pair from Champs.

I'm sorry man, I hope you work this out with MK and get your money back... I highly doubt those are legit.
Not so much a thick paint smell because I know that exact smell and I will never forget it, but a completely different smell from the champs product. (I bought Retro Taxi's back in 04 that smelled that way out of the box - btw, I got a full refund from that ebay seller)

I also bought from mental kicks. I bought 2 pairs from Mental kicks; size 9 and size 10. I have 10.5 from Champs. Call me weird but I smell my shoes and as soon as I smelled the MK shoes, I could tell something was off. The smell is completely different of that from the pair from Champs. I took a total of 66 pictures. Here are a few pictures. Let me know if you can spot the mental kicks shoes.
1. The retro card
2. Inside of the shoe box. I spy one not like the other ones...
3. Picture of the tag on the box cover. I spy one not like the other ones...
4. Funny how the box cover for the 10.5 is smaller than the box for the 10.
5. What's missing?
6. Perforation near the lace holes
Mental Kicks
Champs
Notice the arrangement.
I haven't put the shoes on. If there is anyone else who has bought from mental kicks, please PM me. I am contacting them as soon as possible via email.
Thank you!
What is this? He's not the only one who provided pictures comparing MK's 3s vs Champs/Foot Locker. I doubt he signed up just to criticize Mental Kicks.Originally Posted by Fatherless Child
Jaysexxin get out of niketalk with that fake staged "mental kicks sold me ugry pair!" fabricated stuff. Your very first post is criticizing Mental Kicks. You literally went out of your way by waiting 30 days to get approved, to come here in the Jordan brand forum with THREE pairs of 2011 and saying some rival online show store got you. Get out of here with that. And who names theirselves "jaysexxin"??? Nobody in America.
i decided to slap on some black laces to my 3s. liked the look on em with my FRs, and im liking it on my WCs. ill switch back to the whites eventually. to each their own.
Them black laces brought them out!
