I see 3 pair.All I know is the fire red are fake because they only retroed
with the jumpman not nike air.

Thanks for the response & apologies for the confusion. I provided 2 pictures for the fire/red pair & only 1 for the BC pair.

I'll edit the title & description as I'm confused too.

All 3 pairs are fake

No heel bump is always the easiest way to check for fake IVs -glossy midsole paint is another.

The Fire Red's are fake. The lace holder's on the top and bottom should be red. The netting should be black. At first glance I thought they were the White Cement 4's because of the black lace holders and the white netting!
As for the black cement 4's, the black paint is too glossy. It's supposed to be dull as the Fire red or also known as Mars 4's. Not all IV's have a dull color. It really helps to know your colorways. It will save you so much time and effort researching in the long run.

The tongue on the black cement's looks flimsy.

Just to emphasize: These are two different shoes. The first pair are supposed to be the White/blacks, the second pair are supposed to be the Fire-reds.

Notice the different colored sockliner?

Thanks a lot everyone! Thank a lot FIREPOWER23 for that explanation.

Whew! I'm really glad I didn't pull the trigger immediately.

I still have to learn a lot when it comes to Air Jordans.
