Superstars 35th perfed, authentic check -
jenseike2 - 22-11-06
hi all..
I just bought a pair of 35th model perfed (#32).. They look so very real, but after I got them i have noticed a couple of things that dont add up for me. Here is a pair of the same shoes :
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=020&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=300052124984&rd=1&rd=1
(i have a pair exactly like this)
First, look at the lextra ices. I have seen in original adidas pictures that for this model it is the black extra lices that has the anniversry print on them. With this mode, it is the white.
Second, when I look at the shoes from behind (where the adidas symbol are) I can see some differense from the originals pictures. In the originals pictures this section is much more quadrangular than mine are. mine are mire rounded here...
Need some help with this, if mine are fake they go right in the trash and I will get me new pair. I dont want to support any fake stuff and least of all walk in them.,..
It is really hard to tell if this are fake. All other areas of this shoes look very good, and they are of an exelent quality and material. I do have a hard time saying this are not the real one because of this. If they are fake this have to be the best made fake ever... There is a posibility they could be some kind of variants, and that they just are so nicly made that they are almost as good as the real deal.. but that is still not good for me.
I trust you experts to see if this are the real deal. thanks for your help in advance..

Hi Jens, are these your shoes? Did you get them off E-Bay?
You need to put pictures of your shoes to tell if they are fake.
The ones in the pictures look real to me, the laces in the pics look good as well.

this are not mine, but look exactly the same. regarding the lices, how would you explain that in the originals (look at the picture here):
http://www.pickyourshoes.com/casual/adidas_superstar35_anniversary_perfed.htm
it is the black that have the print and in these it is the white? have adidas made this different for the same model?.. i know that by first look that the lices look good, they are packed in plastic the same as originas(most often this is not the case), but still need to explain why the print are on the other color
and secondly regarding the back of the shoes. why are they so different from the originals?. i would think that all the pairs made of the same model would be quite similar looking, would not you?

If they're EXACTLY the same as the ones from PYS then they're good.. they don't sell fakes.. we need to see pics of the actual shoes tho' if you want us to advise..
as for the laces

please read the first post, open that link and look at them pics. i have not said they are the same as those from PYS... They are look as the ones in the first post. Look at the lices from the first post compare them to the pics from PYS and you see that from PYS the print are on the black lices and in the pics in the first post they are on the white lices. that is the difference. nothing else...

Judging from the pics I think they're legit. IIRC they're supposed to come with a pair of all black laces as well as a white pair with anniversary print.

dj_whildting..... really, why are the official adidas pictures showing the black lices with the anniversary print then?

I couldn't say for sure, but I think it' an error. The shoes come laced with all white laces, so why would they include a pair of all white laces too? Maybe PYS used a wrong image (it could be the laces from the monogram stripe model).
It would make more sense to include a pair of white laces with print and a pair of all black laces.

My black etched came with white laces with black print... so I'm guessing, black with white print should be the correct ones for these shoes.. if you got white with black then either they've mixed up your laces.. or they're fake and you should just bin 'em or re-sell them on the bay
phew this is hard work..
