[@almightytre3730]

The serial number on my shoes start off with 04 everything else is str8.

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Thanks for commenting, Tre. Do you happen to wear a size 12 or up?

[@almightytre3730]

@@retrospectivedave9018 I wear a size 11

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Copy. Let me look into it, and I will get back to you. I won't forget.

[@almightytre3730]

@@retrospectivedave9018 Ok, thanks

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Tre, just checking back in with you. So, some of the retail pairs start with 04 as well. I crossed referenced a few sizes. You should be good 👍🏽

[@soleambition5484]

great video, wish more people when this in depth. Thank you!

[@retrospectivedave9018]

I appreciate the feedback, Sole Ambition! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and I'll do my best to keep em coming 👊🏽😎

[@Doerdoinit]

My jumpmans on the sides are completely different sizes/ heights. No serial number on bottom of sole insert of size number underneath it on inside of shoe. Along with bubbling around the size labels and one is off centered

[@upsetuloss]

Just checked my size 11 pair I picked up from StockX and it passed with flying colors.👍

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Always good to read these comments!

[@Kawa12er]

sometimes real ones look weird too like worst quality and u think its fake but it not

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Unfortunately, that happens too. But, Nike has gotten better with their overall quality in my opinion.

[@bradynarbut]

Great in-depth video! Quick question: What did the dimensions on the inside of the box read for your pair? I couldn’t see it clearly.

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Thank you for your comment, Brady! And I apologize for the late response. Unfortunately, I don't have the pair from the video anymore. I swapped it for a size 12....The size 12's dimensions are 18NAJXII20_360 x 265 x 130....which I believe is slightly bigger than the size 11 box 👊🏽😎

[@bradynarbut]

@@retrospectivedave9018 Of course! And no problem at all. I actually have a Size 12 that I received in a swap too. Looks like those dimensions match up to mine as well! ✅

[@retrospectivedave9018]

BIG W!!

[@usernamenotfound7479]

The alternate gym red 12s have the same carbon fiber and thats why i wanted to cop these so i can rock both pairs at the same time since its the same color scheme

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Sounds like it would be dope!

[@artyclay9919]

You didn't look at the jumpman on the tongue or thee side panel man.

[@retrospectivedave9018]

What's up, Arty? I left those two things out because they can easily be replicated. I try to point out things that are usually overlooked.

[@artyclay9919]

@@retrospectivedave9018 well from what I've seen on authentic playoff 12 pairs is the buttcrack on the jumpman, which is very odd because that's usually a replica thing...I guess Jordan brand said f' it lol

[@artyclay9919]

@@retrospectivedave9018 I've also seen some side panels with a lot of space underneath "jumpman" and some with little space underneath lol..

[@TheEyeFromWithin]

@@artyclay9919 yea the playoffs are great looking but not well made one shoe the jump man panel is more well made than the other they just got lazy

[@Global_sX]

just received a pair from ebay uk.Label is inside and not on the tongue, the insoles are not removable, NO triangles, and the textile written Jordan is red and not white.What do u think?

[@bklynwarmachine]

Definitely fake the 2012s has the red Jordan text on the back sorry dog🙏🏽

[@Global_sX]

@@bklynwarmachine the worst thing is ,that ebay insists its not fake as they authenticated the shoes twice already!!they won't refund.

[@bklynwarmachine]

@@Global_sX that sucks man, maybe you should try and do a charge back with your card. If you used a credit card to buy them your banks will probably be more willing to give you your money back.

[@retrospectivedave9018]

It's possible that you bought the 2012 version by accident. I don't own the 2012, so I wouldn't know what to look for on that.

[@isabelocon4520]

mine don’t have a serial number?

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Thank you for commenting, Isabel. If you'd like to send me a picture of them, feel free to do so on IG.

[@Gianni954]

Hello I don’t know if you’ll see this but I have Chinese writing on the bottom of my insole, it’s say 11 because I have a size 11 but is seems as it has Chinese writing, does that mean it’s fake?

[@datboybel]

I've seen and been told that triangle or little nipple indicates reps

[@retrospectivedave9018]

If retail stores are selling reps, then I give up 😁

[@kicksinnovation310]

We have the same condition and actual look of the Air Jordan 12 "Playoffs 2022" bro 💯 Your pair is definitely legit! 🔥💯 Especially it has that Nike airsole sticker at the back of the box

[@retrospectivedave9018]

Thanks for tuning in, Kicks! I appreciate you. Were you able to score a pair?

[@kicksinnovation310]

@@retrospectivedave9018 yes I have since February 25th bro hahaha!💯 Enjoy your pair bro! Playoffs are way better than the taxi 12's on my opinion 🔥

[@retrospectivedave9018]

I kinda like the Taxi's more simply because they're easier to keep clean 😄 But, I think the Playoff is a better color blocking

[@409Malvo]

Do you know if 13-14 switched to die cut?

[@retrospectivedave9018]

If those sizes switched to die cut, then I'm unaware. I can look into it for you.

[@stackovershine]

mines start off wit 04 and I have no serial number on my shoe pad..real or fake?

[@erikaguirre9454]

Is the tumbled texture on the mud gaurd a Lil smooth ut is on mine ?

[@retrospectivedave9018]

It's smooth

[@erikaguirre9454]

My sneaker starts with 04 both do is that mean there real

There are some that start with 04 as well. You should be ok 👍🏽

Why do you feel that way?

Thank you

Pleasure is all mine.

[@godsfavorite1985]

What if I bought a b grade from Nike lol

[@retrospectivedave9018]

I'm not too knowledgeable about B grades from Nike. I would assume quality would be more of an issue that authentic indicators.

[@teelam85]

Shoe Palace sent me some fakes

[@retrospectivedave9018]

I've heard about Shoe Palace, but I've never done business with them. Did they fix the situation?

[@jazzkuria]

Don't worry..here in Africa we're lacing some awesome fake Js. Were not complaining as we have nasty politicians and crazy issues that people don't care if we're doing fakes or originals..phew we're just lucky.. that said,I have some fakes ..but I ain't losing weight on these..imma be aight
