and what makes em "not legitimate" according to you..that they aren't on a nike manifest somewhere with a "coming soon" catalog
scan somewhere with your favorite celebrity instagramin' a pic of em.
if they came off da same assembly line as da pairs that dropped in 2009 regardless of when, and they're made of da exact same materials then
thats a real pair, can a REAL pair ALSO be a unauthorized pair? absolutely.
thats like saying a diamond grown from a lab is "fake" compared to a diamond grown from da ground, when they are made of da exact same materials.
I'm just going to bow out now because I can't keep posting in here if I have to watch you type like that.

Ninja, Ming already came through and deaded EVERYTHING you have to say.
Dude confirmed that the joints were fake. Made outside of nike used factories, made using different materials, and made by factory workers that don't make nikes.
His word on the subject > yours.
There is no gray area. ***** are knockoffs.

I wish someone would actually do some research instead of grabbing a lot of sites and bunching them together. RMK is LEGIT, so is OSNEAKER.. I see that there is some confusion on the term PRE SALE and PRE RELEASE. Osneaker.com does not allow you to get the shoe before release, they simply allow you to pay a little extra to RESERVE popular releases. They aren't sending you Jordan 11 BREDS or Foam Stealths 8 months early they are simply allowing you to pay a little extra so you don't have to play parking lot camper and online roulette the morning of the most anticipated shoe releases. I can't speak for those other sites but from the thorough research that I have done Marqueesole as well as Air Randy are 2 other sources who sell what were explained to me as REALLY GOOD B GRADES (you say b grades are different they may be, but i was told thats what some of these sites sell). I have read some of these company's ABOUT US page and they have even stated "products sold are thought to be authentic, if found to not be authentic we will receive product back with full refund, no need for other means just send product back" like begging customers not to take to Twitter or other means to let others know that they are fakes..... My best advice is to do your research and just plain common sense, I know its hard to believe but those 2 things will save u a lot of headaches and heartaches. If you're seeing a shoe that retails for $160 and they pre release them for $135 or up to retail something should click in your head that hey these can't be legit 5 months before release

Are the Space Jams or Concords on rstor.taobao.com legit? I was thinking of copping a pair from them but I'm not sure

Osneaker DEFINITELY used to sell grey market shoes for many years. I can clearly remember them doing it. They may have stopped, but at one point in time they were absolutely doing it, and let's not forget about the time they took all of those preorders for eggplant foams and couldn't fulfill any of them. Osneaker is shady and I've even heard someone say they sent them shoes before on cosignment and osneaker never sent them any money. As far as b-grades go, once again, these shoes are not b-grades. A "really good b-grade" is going to be a damn shoe you buy in Footlocker lol. A b-grade shoe is an authentic product that has gone through quality control and that has been marked because it has a cosmetic flaw. B-grade sneakers are labeled as such and you can find them at Nike outlets.

nice argument there, kid. assumptions and adhoms are a nice combo.
the materials are right, the shoes are right. i'll wear them, for sure. Wouldn't sell them as anything but what they are, but that's a moot point since i don't sell shoes.
some of the grey market kicks are actually better quality than official releases. see the blunders thread for more info.
quit it with the ignorance. the word "Fake" is as misused as "deadstock" or "NDS" is with you clowns.

That's just the super icey sole that a pair of 09s shouldn't have. Like I said before, I don't care how well you store them that sole should be a light tan gummy color or have some hint of yellow on it.
