THE OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE FOOTWEAR THREAD: RIP LEGEND 1978-2020. MAMBA FOREVER | 3 Releases 4/13

Anyone here have Area 72 All Star 8's??? I've always wanted pair and someone offered me a trade for one of my protro Grinches...

Convince me with pics if it's a good idea! :lol:

I have them but there's not worth a trade for Grinches.

I love the ASG 8s, but they aren't worth trading for Grinches (even if you have two). They were a "System +" CW, which means that Nike tried to hide one of those sensors in the midfoot shank...except you can still sort of feel it. I had two pair and sold one years ago for a few hundred bucks. Although they did have heel zoom.
 
please post pics.. there's a lot of fakes out there that look pretty much 1:1 except for extremely minor details that your average person wouldn't notice.

you are right about the fakes being really good. I saw these on the LA OU and I remembered that someone said the print on the inside looks different on the fakes. There black dots are a lot bigger than the real pair.

Buyers beware, especially if the price is too good to be true like the one below.

Good looking out for those that gave me the heads up.

Yea that was me
 
You gotta do your investigative work. Find a pair that's insanely priced.... preferably from one of the single person resellers... review their page and with that should give you a sense about them. Then take the pics from their listing and compare to the other. The one above... even the area in the back of where the inside design ends looks off.... to curved
