I got through on adidas to be met with the captcha on loop.
I give up.

I got exactly the same problem! I got through captcha eventually then hit add to cart and it just got stuck on loading. Tried this for around 20-30mins and nothing.

Taiwan is the home of a LOT of fake Foamposites. The usual trick is to put photos of the genuine article on eBay and then ship something that looks like it was sculpted out of old jelly. Tread carefully.

Unfortunately I didnt see this before I bought them..

Item itself:

He’s based in Belgium yet ships from Taiwan.... feedback looks good but I’m getting second thoughts !


I paid £120

No mention of genuine but says 100% original well that means nothing best quality is pointless if they are genuine nike!

I'd say they are fakes

[anonymous-user]

I just feel really guilty now .... should have waited it out. Guess that’s £140 down the drain then

[Trustmeimadoctor]

But! He isn't selling loads of different styles so that's in it's favour and as you say the feedback isn't too bad

[ROSSinHD]

the swoosh just doesnt look right for me. It maybe the angle but on a legit pair you see both points on the swoosh. In his listing pic the swoosh seems slightly too high.

And the swoosh on the toungue looks a little round. Compared to the crisp swoosh I am seeing on legit pairs.

Legit pair

[anonymous-user]

If I’m going to be honest I can’t really tell the difference.




That’s not to detract from my mistake. I feel like such a fool

[Trustmeimadoctor]

Think of it this way on eBay
If it's cheaper than it should be it's fake if its loads more than it should be it's fake if its the right price it will be fake

Tbh if it's on eBay it's a damn good chance it's fake

[roystinho]

To be honest it’s a complete punt. They could be fine. The pics are a bit rubbish, that alone makes people suspect

Rumours of the Silver Bullets getting another release before the years out anyway? Might be worth waiting for that if it does happen.

If you are on facebook, joining one of the sneaker groups would be a good way to get a pair, there is probably an Air Max 97-specific group as there is for most models these days, the people on there are usually good at weeding out any fakes and giving fair prices.

There is a 97 group on FB, I’m in it...

Compare the two shoes and look at the gaps on the curved stitching detail and also the different colours of piping.

Snide AF, imo

fk.


I’ll wait for them to arrive, see if they’re fake, report them as counterfeit and...


Oh.. I have to send them back to Taiwan.. and pay the postage.

Fingers and other bits crossed that they're the real deal :-)

Anyone know what these are? I'm intrigued as these colours are normally only on trimm trab, spezial, gazelle etc.





Cheers

[roystinho]

Anyone manage to grab these?

They don't look like an originals product, probably in the neo range? There nothing special
