Why people do dumb **** like this I don't know but we are loving in the age of predistressed jeans, Off White, and that Nigel guy who designed those goodwill rejects, so I'm not surprised

cut of the collar area is off in the first Pic. The tongues also didn’t come super high like that. Seems like he’s trying to make the tongues look shorter in some pics and some pics they look too high420...that swoosh also looks thiccc. along with the other things mentioned by NTers.

The tongue thing in that pic is just cause it's sitting outside the shoe on top of the shoelace collars as opposed to tucked in. I agree with the rest of it tho, something is off.

I figured I would share my small but slowly growing Jordan 1 High collection.

Wore these for my ‘essential shopping trip’ for the day

Big facts

They looked decent until I saw the materials in person, one of the worst drops of 2019 in my opinion. Returned my two pairs.

Yep. Materials are garbage and the writing on the side sucks. I was excited for this shoe until I saw it in person.

Clean. Grey outsole underrated. People like this aged midsole but not that Kentucky custom? Similar

Those black toes look fake. The white leather texture is different. The irregular swoosh stitching was already pointed out. There are a couple imperfections around the midsole/outsole paint.

This stuck out the most to me:

I don't think the rubber of the midsole should be that pronounced due to the leather panel.

Little sloppy here.

Weird wrinkles.

They're really close, but I'd call fake.

just to throw some water on these theories...i pulled my pair out because i know that i have the same “weird wrinkles” and have commented in the past on other NTer pairs that appeared to have the same issue on their pairs that they posted. its a qc issue i absolutely hate that i have because i love this pair so much.

so apparently, mismatched toebox leather was common on the 2016s and isnt necessarily a tell of a fake pair.

 

[rhinosport]

2pacalypsenow pair in question looks legit to me. Plenty of normal JB "flaws" have been pointed out. But nothing jumps out to me as far as other wise.

I used my 11 pro max. But I believe the cameras are pretty similar.

 

[hnguy4]

Can’t believe these Chicago 1’s are going for 2k in my size.

crazy stupid prices . I'll just wait for the next retro when prices on either the new pair or this pair should be more reasonable

 

[coolcool]

On those black toes, the lace bag doesnt have any lines

Anyone wanna help with a legit check on these? I’ve tried to get one in the legit check section but no help

Those swoosh shapes are all typical of reps. I’d steer clear.

eddiemcnasty thanks for the insight! The only pair I have from that 2015/16 era is UNCs and they're way too worn to use as an example.
