You’ve actually turned me in to a more quality conscious sneaker collector. Which in turn means I buy less now. 😅

[@jcolley82]

Something about when they cut them up it makes me rethink if I really need so many pairs🤷🏾‍♂️ Great vid regardless and you also have to be careful where you buy your kicks from, you can get better quality UA 11s than those Breds those ones are horrible

[@Thatblackz28]

@@jcolley82 no rep will ever be constructed as good as the actual product though. Even if it’s better than the reps here, it’s not held to the same QC standards as the actual shoe.

I had a pair of fake 8s. Leather was about the same. Outsole was a bit warped, but they held up for over a decade of weekly use. You should do videos where you don’t know which one is authentic.

[@SomethingGamecatAdjacent]

Thats a good idea

[@cliftonbrown4051]

Great 💡 💡

[@samaantree]

100% since you can get reps that are 1 to 1 or better than the originals 👍🏿

[@MetalFacedGamer]

That's a great idea!!!!

[@pastorofmuppets325]

​​​@@samaantree Exactly. The problem now is Nike's QC is so bad, that the good reps look better than the real thing. I won't buy non hype shoes that are reps, b/c that doesn't make sense once you figure shipping into the equation.. But I'm sure asf not going to pay $500-$1000 for some sneakers, when I can get the best batch of reps for $$150-175 (including shipping). No one can tell the difference, & you can wear them everyday, without worrying about messing them up.

[@abrightp]

If you experienced such clean crack on carbon fiber composite with same load level then that means the carbon fiber used in the authentic pair was acutally worse (assume they had similar stiffness). All the fake ones experienced either delamination or matrix failure, but as the fracture was so clean on the anthentic pair, that means they expericed fiber failure (breakage), which is more fatal type of failure for composite.

[@gilbertoflores7397]

he was talking about the original 11s he reviewed months ago being much different than the authentic ones he had for this video, and its probably a Jordan thing, for a while Jordan brand wasn't using real carbon fiber, they painted plastic to look like carbon fiber, so maybe he had ones of those last time.

[@cepterone]

chances are the fakes had fiberglass inserts.

[@d.felixphoto2260]

This is what I been waiting on. I think the authentic needs a softer compound because the carbon fiber shank is so strong. On the fakes you would go vice versa to get the same feel I guess. Either way you are making a compelling case for not paying over retail.

I honestly never watch the sponsor parts of KZbin videos but that water bottle actually looks really cool.

[@markopolo9936]

It’s certainly going to ruffle a few feathers knowing that the fakes are using basically the same materials across the board, maybe even the same tooling too. It’s going to be crazy hard for those who are looking to buy genuine too, not that paying resale prices are worth it at all going from your videos. Keep it up!

[@BigDirtDawg]

Did you hear him at all? Ones made with real ballistic nylon one isn’t lol. One has a far superior construction because of the cement they used. This clearly puts the argument to rest about made in the same factories of the same materials BS that a lot of he fake sneakers guys promote. It’s a lie. Not to mention one retains value one is worthless

[@markopolo9936]

@@BigDirtDawg as others have said you’ve missed the point here. Anyone can do what they want with their money but when reps are getting better and better every year it’s hard to justify spending stupid resale on sub par products for most people.

[@VinhNguyen-zf5lw]

You should do cut in halves fake and real sneakers without knowing which one is fake and then guess. That should be a little more interesting.

[@cptjockitch]

These fakes are made using the same material on similar machines by the same workers in china. I think the differences seen in the fakes can just be quality control. I’ve sold shoes I bought from stockx and the guys buying the shoes were shoe collectors and I don’t think they knew what to look for.

Have you considered doing these reviews with the reps blind? Have someone at the shop label the shoes 1-4 or A-D, you put them through all the testing not knowing which are the legit pair until all the results are in. Could be interesting to see how things stack up or how you comment on things not knowing the legit pair.

[@mistourasal]

This was great, very concise and informative. It is good to see the guts of the shoe, and i'm surprised that counterfeiters continue to use that terrible glue. If they're gonna use OEM materials, why not do the same with the glue. But kudos on the videos

[@walterrojas1075]

Not sneaker related but I got an old pair of Ariat work boots, maybe three or four years old. I’d love to send in to be cut. Stopped using them for work last year and now they’re used to mow the lawn or do work around the house.

U can also do regular Nike dunk vs Nike dunk by you edition, they have better leather quality, it will be cool if you grade it and compare theese shoes.

Back in the day I had bought a pair of fake Jordan 3’s for around $60. They were great for a few months then the glue and stitching failed causing them to come apart.

Were the fakes LJR batch? If not I'd love to see you get one and compare to an authentic because LKR is as close to real as it gets for the fakes.

[@dean4696]

not all carbon fiber is created equal, even if it is from the same manufacturer or batch. its still a relatively low yield process if youre looking for perfection. NHL players will get bundles of ~ 10 sticks at a time, and they can immediately tell that which ones fall into a distribution of good/acceptable/unacceptable feel and durability.

[@ceedee1675]

Can you compare Chanel authentic and rep leather?

[@r5sandman404]

Bro try review Reps (Replica) vs Real ones cuz they are like 1:1 even stitching is very very hard to tell, and some have to use blacklight to see if there is a logo ( LG, GG, etc) on the shoes ( cuz OG shoes don't have a logo or sgins given above).

i play in 11's... and 13's mostly but also the 7's recently (indoor) i like the 11 lows more on the court just for how i move, but the materials do their thing. I was gifted a pair of fakes once in like 2008 and i didnt wanna seem ungrateful so i played in them a few times and the honestly fell apart really quick. the insole material separated and the rest of the interior of the sneaker followed. would not recommend. idk if i mentioned in the last video too, but i played in my 11 lows a lot and did actually crack my CF plate on one pair! i was playing outdoors in that pair so idk if that make a difference, but i landed and heard a crack. i could feel the difference and noticed after the game my shank was cracked in the middle. i still balled in the until i wore out the tread tho lol legit pairs dont fall apart.
