Adidas Superstar Fakes? - becks7 - 29-05-06
Do you think these are fake or the real deal?

Thinking about getting them

Hard to say, I thought the Neighbourhood writing should be closer to the stitching but who knows? And that would probably change depending on the size of the shoe.
The best thing to do is ask for the seller to confirm that they are 100% genuine and post up some more photos

I think we all know they're genuine but just to make sure... ask mr.spite - he won 'em!

Hey guys, am new here, but I have to say I think they are fake....
Suddenly so many pairs of consortium shoes on ebay - As soon as he sold them, he put up another pair! DODGY

£310.00
I hope for spite's sake they are real!
- becks7 - 31-05-06
Must say big_al75 is right i seen that this guy has put another pair up stright away bit funny that i think, hope they are not fake for mr.sprite lot of cash spent they
- bobby dassler - 31-05-06
As woody (i think) mentioned in a previous thread - alot of these consortiums that have suddenly flooded the market could be seconds rather than fakes...
The pics on the auction above look spot on to me & i'm sure mr.spite knows what a pair of genuine NBHD's look like!
We're all suspicious because this seller has 0 feedback & has listed another pair straight away (admittedly, it does look dodgy) but it could be that he's got his hands on some seconds (which should be listed as seconds) & of course there's always the possibility that the seller may not provide the exact trainers in the pic (these sellers are the scum of the earth!
) but they could be genuine top grade adidas NBHD's & he just got lucky & found a good supplier of genuine deadstock kicks...Who knows - only time (& hopefully mr.spite) will tell!
- dj_wildthing - 31-05-06
it does seem a bit dodgy indeed.
Also, I browsed they seller's other SS auctions and it seemed the pics were all taken from different sources, i.e. some had a date on them (from the camera) some were made as collages, and they all had different backgrounds. If I was to put some 10 pairs of SS up for auction I would most likely take the pictures at once in the same place. It might just be a case of the seller not having a camera himself and therefore using pics found on the net, but I doubt it.
I do hope that mr. spite gets a genuine pair though, and that's the case £310 is really not that bad a price!

PS: in favour of the items being legit though, the SS were all the same size which might indicate that it's just a case of someone needing cash and is therefore selling his collection.

Lets all keep our fingers crossed for mr.spite that this is the case!

just noticed on the 2nd pair he put up that there are two japanese letters on the heel - isn't there only supposed to be one? at least that's what the pics on the official adidas site shows...
- bobby dassler - 01-06-06
No - there should be 2 japanese characters on the heel dj_wildthing although some of the fakes only have 1...
- becks7 - 01-06-06
Do really like the look of these but im unsure if they are the real deal ill leave it i think as i dont like to think they are fake

are you sure mate? as I mentioned the pics on the official adidas site only shows one character:
http://www.adidas.com/campaigns/superstar35/content/index.asp
could be the pic of a prototype, but still...
- bobby dassler - 01-06-06
Yup i'm 100% sure - not sure why the pic on the adidas website only shows 1 though!
Check out the pics on any other legit website & you will see they have 2 japanese characters on them...
