I don't think that milky toe theory is an accurate characteristic of authentic, mainly because I'm looking at some old(er) pics posted in different sections of NT, and I'm seeing some 11's that don't have the milky toe.



I guess every one is going to have to check their 11's for milky toes now? o_O
EDIT:

I just looked at my Space Jams from '09 that I bought from Footlocker, and even though the sole has yellowed tremendously ... I can still see the black patent leather behind the ice. No milky. So, would that mean Footlocker received a batch of Superfake Space Jams in '09? Lol.

2010 Cool Grey and some sample 2011 Concords are the only pairs that have been seen with the miak toes. 2009 Space Jams and any XI before are translucent (even MJ's og pair of Concords). Look for a small hole beneath your '09 SJ insole ( be careful when doing this), if there is one then you may have fakes ( from what I've gathered in this thread). so far, No Hole on '09 SJ = Authentic.

i dunno, just not sure how we can be so sure milk or no milk means fake or not.


what will keep me from copping from these early release asian sites, even if proved the shoes themselves are legit, is the box and packaging being off. if i can't take my shoes into a shop like flightclub or rif and sell them cuz they're calling them fake based on the box, i dunno, i don't want them. i like knowing everything in my collection is authentic. everything.

crazy thing is tho, these super fakes are amazing. they're obviously getting really close to being able to reverse engineer a shoe down to the smallest details and replicate it perfectly. we shoulda seen it coming. this is the stuff the future holds, no doubt.

will seriously screw up the shoe game (even within corporate stores if they allow returns, 99.9% of the guys working at footlocker, finishline, champs, etc., wouldn't know these are super fakes in a million years, no matter how much they inspect them, which 9 times outta 10 they don't thoroughly inspect them anyways).

nike sticking holes under the insole, switching up the color of stamps under the insole, doing little stuff like that, and keeping it under wraps so the super fake makers don't know, is the only thing that is gonna save this thing (and that's only gonna help fend off early fakes, once the cat's out of the bag they'll make 'em exact).

makes you wonder if those holes under the insole was nike's way of deliberately trying to throw super faker's off...

at all of this... this is truly nuts. but we shouldn't be too too surprised... we shoulda seen it coming.

still waiting on my refund from SDS. he emailed me yesterday saying "refunded". i replied back cuz i haven't seen it on my paypal account yet. he said "in 24 hours" then another email 15 minutes later saying "we will refund in 24 hours"...

just want my money back and to be done with this. i don't like having to wonder if my shoes are truly legit or not. or if the box and packaging being fake would screw up being able to sell later if i wanted to.
Maybe he lives in Memphis?

Milky toes started with the 2010 cool greys. everything prior to the 2009 space jams, DMPs, 2000-2001 XI had the see through toe cap.

Oh, how convenient. Why would Nike/JB do that though? For the most part, all the 11's have been pretty consistent with each other. I'm still on the fence w/ that theory. Sounds suspect as hell. At this point, it really sounds like it's sneaker site vs. sneaker site. Guess we'll have to see what these pairs that were just shipped out are going to look like.

THEN 10'S WITH THE TOE CAP.

JORDAN DIDNT LIKE THEM SO THEY WERE RECALLED BEFORE RELEASING BUT SOME MANAGE TO ESCAPE UN-OFFICIALLY. GENTRY SAID HIMSELF THAT WHOM EVER HAD A PAIR OF THOSE HAD SOMETHONG VALUABLE.

THEY WERE NOT FIXABLE AND ASSUMABLY  DESTROYED. ACCORDING TO THE ARTICLE THOSE SHOULD BE UNSACTIONED OR BE C, D OR F GRADES. YET THEY GO FOR A PRETTY PENNY. 

BOTH KICKS WERE NOT APPROVED BY NIKE. ONE WAS NOT APPROVED BY JORDAN HIMSELF.  

Not exactly the same discussion about the XI's here.....

The Rising Suns had already been produced by Jordan Brand. It wasn't until they realized that stepping on a Japanese flag was pretty rude that they decided to delay the release and then send stores replaceable insoles in exchange for the "rising sun" insoles. Both pairs are as legit as they come but one was a quick fix. Hell, the replaceable insoles didn;t even have a Jumpman on them.

The OG steel X's were ALL released with the toe cap. OG steel  X's without the toecap DO NOT EXIST. However, It is true that MJ didn't like the design, but it was only the other colorways that got produced without the toe cap .

So technically BOTH KICKS WERE APPROVED BY NIKE. THEY JUST GOT CHANGED.
 
I should of listened to Memphifinest from the beginning. He was right about all the fakes shoes from the beginning. I didnt really care for his attitude but he def was right regarding the overseas sellers. Im just glad i got my money back from SDS. kind of messed up he got banned.


zzzzzz does the concords that SDS sent you have a hole when you take out the insole. Please take a pic and post?
 
So I filed a dispute yesterday with Air-Randy for a refund, and now all of a sudden my tracking # is working. He sent me and email saying that the shoes have been shipped and to please close the dispute. I think I'll leave it open just in-case these aren't what they turn out to be, that way I'll still be protected.

got my tracking earlier today/tonight whenever it come through, so you prob get yours soon man, ALSO...
 
why are people so upset that memphis got banned for brag'n about some else's misfortune. isnt that against the rules anyways? i may be thinking to hard on this, but some1s screen name on a messege board being banned for a while really dosent seem that bad to feel sorry for him. do you guys have friends in the real world. lol if i paid $200 at fl only to get memphis's fake pair and not find out till it was to late. i could care less if he was ever allowed to post on a shoe forum again.



this thread is about people possibly buying fakes from unofficial websites. and this man is responsible for some1 buying fakes from an official dealer and dudes is cry'n cuz he got banned? if you support him/his actions your a hypocrite in this thread. cuz hes actually worse than those sites cuz most kno they are fishy at best but kno1 think footlocker is. smdh
 
Can the dude with the 3 cool greys take pics of under the insoles so we can see if they have the writing and the hole?

The dude MEMPHISFINEST returns fake sneaks to Footlockers. 



There's more detail than that. Reading this you would think the bought some $40 Jordan's and returned them. Which isn't the case.

So whats the deal here im not reading through all 20 new pages......so how are we saying the concords are fake this time?

Have we already came to a conclusion on the milky toes?
 
anyone notice the white black silver xi lows, sds has on its site. seems like opaque toe cap to me. So SDS got fake CG XI, real XI low, and fake concords, supposedly? Whoever is supplying SDS, is clearly messing with him......
 
Let me start this off by saying that I am NOT DEFEND anyone here, I just want to see if we are all on the same page.
Okay, so to build a timeline here.  The questionable sneakers with SlamDunkSpace didn't start until the Second restock of Space Jams arrived.  Everything before is legit?

Here are a some pictures of Cool Grey 11s that i got from SlamDunkSpace about two months ago, and they pass all the test.







The only thing that I didn't find was the gold Asian market sticker on it, but it had the MSRP (which suggest that this pair was bound for a US retailer), so I guess one counter acts the other.
 
wow, if all those shoes are from SDS.......you better not let ppl know where you selling them. I am not saying SDS sells fakes, but as of now, you have a LOT OF PPL who would rather burn money than spend them on SDS shoes.

still waiting for mine to come.
