Can you read the thread at the top of the fakes forum.
You tell me what you reckon once you've read it !

Looking at the plastic hang tag, it doesn't have the flat bit at the connector.
Laces don't look to be filling the packaging.

Is there anything else that gives them away?

---

Back to school for you mate.
The laces do fill the packet, the tartan ones are the only exception but that is as they should be.
The tags do have the flat bit.
It was all there for the asking mate.

oh man,
I am way off...

Is the flat bit only on one of the hang tags?
It doesn't appear to be on hang tag on the shoe on the left (rh shoe)?

The tartan ones were throwing me a little so I was being cautious.

This why I still need to ask the experts

So these are the real deal then?

Yup !
Don't worry if you can't see it on both shoes, if you can see it on one that is enough.
You buy the shoes and if the ones that turn up don't have it, you've got a case.

Ebay want to be giving us each like a few grand credit, as we help people so much!

Hannibal Olstar!

Mr.P- Goodmorning class, be seated.
Students- Goooodmooorning Mr Pure.
Mr.P- Now class todays lesson is fake spotting 101.
Little Billy- Sir what's a fake?
Mr.P- I'm glad you asked Billy, a fake is an overpriced usually chinese piece of crap that makes you feel dirty when you wear them and should never be bought unless it's at a reasonable price and quality and the originals are not available.
Little Billy- Can you tell me if these Nikes are genuine?
Mr.P-

Billy ! Go and stand outside the Headmasters office.

( Sneakily, under the desk, out of sight of the students, Mr Pure puts on his fake Footpatrols )

I used to be able to do twisted flips, but i'm old and out of it nowadays...

---

That was a sweet clip effel.
A SSDB vid would be cool too, I can't skate but I can bust a glide in my SS that would make Usher and MJ look stupid.....well mine would look better because of the soups anyway.
