Hi all,
Could use a little support/help on this one.
So today the post lady delivers my new Consortium SS 80's and I crack the pack open like when I first opened my spare Star Wars Darth Vader back in the day (insert laugh here)...I go through the requisite once over inspection and then I begin to question a number of things (before I get into my list of ???, I have to note I didn't have much to go on re: how these looked, beyond the exterior/blue snakeskin):
1. There was the dreaded heel tag cutout (actually a very tiny one)...normal with later releases?
2. There is no inner tongue ID (maybe its something that is not supposed to be there on this particular series, but I've never had a pair without an ID in place).
3. The model number is simply tagged on the inner side of the shoe, along with the sizing. I found this odd...
4. The outer tongue trefoil was all in French...that right?
Perhaps points 2-4 are in reference to the old days, ala original soups from France...yes or no?
I got em from a reputable store and I've purchased legit stuff from them before....maybe I'm just super paranoid lately, given the chat around fakes lately...no actual pix of mine yet, but I've attached a few as a Word doc from Freshnessmag.com
Thanks all!
