Mods should’ve let the UA discussion thread stay open. Some good points made on both arguments. I’m inclined to believe they are the same thing assembled in different spots.

Word I do need some all white 11s with ballistic mesh. Gonna hit up the factory see what they can make meI think the future of fakes is one-of-one custom orders. Like say you just wanted one pair in one colorway with a certain shape.
If these guys save all of their files and molds and 3-d printing techniques it'll happen.
This is what we're up against.
You should see the Jordan 1sThis is wild, are reps 1:1 at this point?

word nike wanted to limit their production. factories started their own production line.Bro… Keep it a bean. They’re the same damn shoe at this point.
****’s wild… but I get it. Nike pretty much brought this on themselves.

The suede is a dead give away, plus UV light. But if you’re buying online? It’s game over. So easy to get scammed if you aren’t actually holding the shoe to see if it’s fake.11s reps(as far as GRs) are usually the only ones that are spot on. I feel like I can notice the flaws/discrepancies on almost every other model I've come across.
Less chance in my opinion to get scammed for a fake when buying online. Most platforms offer authenticity checks(will consider accuracy) and if they don't, they're usually a reputable source. Thought about getting a UV light just because(more than likely still will), but don't feel like it's a necessity.The suede is a dead give away, plus UV light. But if you’re buying online?

But fake manufacturers have got really good at their trade over the past few years. They still haven’t got it down with Yeezy’s yet, but they are getting really close.
I was talking like Craigslist. There was a guy selling them for $250, I was like, no way. I asked him “how do I know if these are real”, and he just answers with “I have receipt”. I was like hell naw man he trippin. So then I asked where he got them, and he just replied, “footlocker”.Less chance in my opinion to get scammed for a fake when buying online.

At most you might get those IG/FB sellers who sell reps, but most of the time, the price is too good to be true so I don't usually bother.
I have zero faith in Stock X, eBay or whoever’s “authenticity verifiers.” I know for a fact that I’ve got more experience with these sneakers over 25 years than these college kids they have doing these checks. If it’s tough for me than they don’t have a clue. It’s actually a joke. I think eBay uses the sneakercon verifiers and I’ve seen them in action lol. Buying from anywhere other than a retailer is gonna be a gamble. I honestly don’t buy 11’s or 1’s on the secondary market anymore because it’s just too risky.Less chance in my opinion to get scammed for a fake when buying online.

I think eBay does a good job. GOAT is too dang expensive, and I wouldn't bet a dollar on anything StockX "verified".I have zero faith in Stock X, eBay or whoever’s “authenticity verifiers.” I know for a fact that I’ve got more experience with these sneakers over 25 years than these college kids they have doing these checks.

Looks to be real. Suede is messed up and not flat, box doesn't have any lines on it, and the tag looks correct on the box.I truly have no idea at this point. Here’s one of my pairs. Fake or legit? And does it even matter by now?
Market is insanely good for them rn, just saying. If you really love the shoe, I say keep em and wear em. If they are sort of an "ehhh", then i'd sell em.Not sure whether to sell em or just wear em and enjoy them.
