So what's the conclusion flight club is not legit?
At this point your guess is as good as mine to be honest.

Damn.. So it appears that flightclub sold a fake.. I wonder how many other pairs like this theyve sold..?
the small box and the foggy air bubble on that FC pair should've been a dead giveaway also.
Flight club employees are clueless, at least in NY. A legit check for them is having the receipt.
Unless its extremely noticeable, FC wouldn't be able to tell. I was once told that FC carries GM's in their inventory, whether they know - it's anybody's guess.
I don't think so bro. My FNL pair has the foggy air bubble too. I bought it on RD at the store.

Are you sure there from FC. Where's the FC sticker?Took me about an hour but I finally figured it out.
The material between the heel tab is different, the ISS pair matches you guys pair.

Sticking with the ISS pair. Thanks for your help frankw and @NYMETS207
Hey yall, im new to this site but hopefully my opinions can be considered as im pretty up on my Jordan game & been collecting for a while now. I noticed the talk of the material around the bubbles on the ankles aka nubuck/durabuck or whatever type of buck it may be,lol, & from the pictures id be definitely willing to say they are not legit. Sorry if what im about to say has been mentioned but Ive read most but not the whole thread. The reason I'd say they aren't legit is because the pic you posted of the material around the bubble on the ankle is the same as the material on the ankle bubble. The thing is once the base of the bubble meets the shoe it changes to a more smoothed down version of the material. I know the materials all the same type of leather & it's not anything funky but to compare what the material at the base of the bubble looks like is how ostrich leather looks. It looks like a grainy shinier textured type of material. & that's where the problem comes in for me where it looks like the shoes not legit. I took a pic of my 100% legit pair i got from champs close up to show exactly how it should look & am bout to post it, but while taking the pic i noticed something. When i took the pic my flash was on & i figured it would make the pic more clear so i left it on, but it made me realize that going by the material at the base of the bubble on the ankles i may actually be wrong & that pair is probably legit. When taking the pic with the flash on for some reason it makes the material at ther base look exactly the same as the material on the bubble & it don't even look like a shinier more textured material. Then i took a pic without the flash & it showed exactly what the material looks like. So if you have just been going by the looks of that material around the base of the bubble, if it looks like the pic i took without the flash id be willing to say they are legit. Maybe you weren't noticing how different the leather looked when you were posting the pics and it's also the reason someone thought you were putting up a kids pair cause i think maybe the gs like the ps pair use the same textured material for the base as the bubble/whole shoe.View media item 1301439
