They look off to me from the hologram, the box being matte, and the box tag color codes being wrong (should be FLNT instead of flint and UNIV instead of University). Looking for a second opinion. Thanks!

fakes from that time period didn't have 3M..If they shined with the flash they were legit..Now the box is a different monster all together. There are NO high quality 05' Flints with 3M..Also just for the record, I also believe that these are fakes.Thank you both. I did get pics of the 3M but I also believe they're just really good fakes. Another thing of note on the box tag is there is no Spanish color code...have never owned a pair, unless MAYBE an OG, that didn't have the Spanish color code. The likelihood of the box being fake and the shoes being real is very low. As soon as I mentioned to the seller that I was legit checking them he talked in circles about how he "knows nothing" about shoes and that they were "a gift from a friend." Then be immediately sold them to someone else. Looks like I dodged a bullet. Thanks again!
Well the thing is, just because they're reps of the '05 doesn't mean that's when they were produced. I found them though...they were fake.fakes from that time period didn't have 3M..If they shined with the flash they were legit..Now the box is a different monster all together.

I can't post outside links so the mods need to approve my post. But I found a youtube video where a guy is reviewing these exact ones with the same box and everything, and they are fake. Dodged a bullet!
Those are fake. One way to tell (at least from my research/eBay) is that "trim" around the blue is a lighter color than the rest. The more I see it, the more it sticks out and is easier to spot.
