"SZ" is the UK Factory. UK version doesn't have female size, and has a blue stamp under the insole, toe box is a little higher and the Red also glows Orange... You should get a SZ pair and compare it to the rep. I guarantee the reps are based on shoes overseas.
UK pair for reference czcams.com/video/5kQDzoaf6SU/video.htmlsi=4gmQSM8g-aGNq3OJ
UK version? my pair has the blue stamp, but I'm from Uruguay S.America.
I been saying for a long time these “early pairs” are NOT what they say they are. I mean who’s to say anyone can buy a shoe that’s coming out this Christmas from a rep seller and just say “yeah I got these early from a dude who got it from Nike’s sample team” people need to open their eyes and learn not to trust these early pairs.
Those are both retail on release days
@@144Souldiernah the pair on the left is from Chicago Emporium which were one of the first to get “early pairs” he even made a video few days ago saying he got it from them.
Was waiting for this review even tho I haven’t gotten a pair yet
Thanks for the review 🕳️💫🏌🏾
Retail vs Retail is always educational. Thanks for posting this.
Salute!
Hey Bro. I live in Europe. I won a raffle on a legit Sneaker Store. Here we have only mens size in size tag. Great Video as always
Definitely love the comparison. Had 2 pairs retail and both were coming different 💯
Yo what's crazy is my pair from DTLR...the left shoe looks like the pair you got from Chicago Emporium and the right shoe looks like the pair you got from Foot Locker. So yeah the retails are different like you stated for sure. Good video bruh!
So happy I hit on the SNKRS app shock drop for these lol.
Thats wild. Toe box looks different and right shoe taller than left when you showed the back of them.
The toe box shape is different on the 2 pairs ibgot from sneakers and dtlr. More curved at the toe on the sneakers app one but everything else the same. Stamp on insole a lil different placing. Once you wear a pair and break it in the netting gets softer almost
Great video per usual. I always check out your real vs fake videos and compare them to my shoes. The only thing I didn’t understand was the netting. Could you explain what was different from the 2 pairs ? I’d really appreciate it, thank you !!
Awesome comparison Jacob, I would take both to a consignment/resell shop just to see what they say even though you know.
The sz 12 on the footlocker has a little space in between the 1 and the 2 mines are the same way from dtlr the chicago emporium is closer together on the 1 and the 2
I mess wit you heavy jacob..an respect the heck out the channel..so no shot..because i dont know..but you gotta admit its a lil sus that chicago emporium follows alot of the same rep sellers that i do..i dont know if thats a common thing or not..Just saying..i personally havnt heard anybody say they bought anything fake from them.but its something that bothered me about them..regardless love the vids bro
Just saying
If I owned a store that got early pairs I would want to follow these rep sellers as well so I can keep up with what is out there and what to look for
Especially with getting early pairs
Just my 2 cents on the matter
I have a double up as well and mine literally have the same differences yours has. 1 pair has 1 shoe with the lose netting, crooked stitch line under the Nike Air at the back and leather is less tumbled on 1 pair. I bought my pairs from DSG and DTLR. At the end of the day, even a seasoned shoe collector couldn't tell on foot and I'm blessed to have them.🤷🏾♂️🔥🔥
Yea same bro I think they all gonna have some slight differences. Just like with the size tags. Some have women sizes some don’t. I know the overseas pair don’t but they are legit
You're right reseller's were out in force on Saturday, I was in line at footlocker and I'd say at least 75% of the people in line were reseller's
Wow!
Should I do retail vs retail vs retail? 😅
Yes sir. I did it with the red thunder 4s
Yeah asap
Yes do it bro
Hate to say it we got “Got” from chicago Emporium. I hit 8 pairs of size 12 from different stores. All same Factories, yes they all have differences but the ones from chicago emporium are the only one that have crazy differences to the others starting off at the box.
My sneakers smell very strong, do you think they are fake? Bought on a well-known site in England though
I just bought a pair on one shoe The leather that goes all the way around is glowing green and on the other shoe the top leather is glowing green. Are these fake?
Ay i got a pair from Chicago Emporium also.. do you have anyway i can DM privately
The left box don't look rite. I got 2 pairs mine are identical??
Why didn't you flip the wings? there should be 6 dots with the middle lower dot being shaped different. Some pairs the dots protrude and some shoes the dots are flat because my dots are flat. I am not 100% sure if they are supposed to be flat because nobody flips the wings
If the differences between retail pairs gets as close as the best reps are to retail pairs then we really are approaching the end game. So long as the reps hold up ok build quality wise then there really is little going for the retail pairs, especially if we're talking $150 vs $300-1k dollars.
Fascinating video btw! 😃
This video right here is what made me order a rep pair. Lol. If 2 retail are different the way these reps look its no telling the difference at all on feet. Its always funny when legit checkers check reps they spend so much time looking over the shoe. If you cant tell its a rep by first glance than they doing something right across that water.
@@144SouldierSpot on, if Jacob hadn't have seen all the reps and gotten this pair from a less than reputable source we'd probably have all gone, "Man these fakes are getting even closer'.
I don't have much sympathy for Nike, or some other manufacturers; if they actually gave us top quality materials and tighter QC then there would be less room for the rep game. I'd say in the past year out of around 20 odd Nike pairs I've bought only 1 or 2 have not had some sort of minor scuff, blemish or glue stain. For £170-$250 dollars they should be giving us better than meah ok leather and trust to luck finishing. I bought a pair of custom Nike by you shoes recently and the leather on those was far better than the regular release materials, which when you think you're 'only' paying an extra 20 odd, and that includes all your customizations, the extra cost of upgraded materials can't be costing them the earth.
How do you know how to use a scale that well. I think once upon a time you used scales for something else! Are you a chef or baker?
Definitely two different boxes from the labels to the color tint
My guy that emporium 😅pair looks very SUS but great video 📹 👏
They can’t be legit. The size tag has a different font.
@@TH3_DON_M3G4 They dont have any rep boxes with double labels for men/women yet.
@@144Souldierit’s easy to swap boxes if u really wanted to finesse somebody
After watching this it made me want to go check my couple pairs I have and one of my pairs that I picked up from Champs has the same dates and netting like the Chicago Emporium pair. I grabbed a pair I got from Finishline and they match up to ya other pair
It is weird. I didn’t black light it to see if they do the same thing
For those in disagreement here, I picked mines up directly from a retail store
Just saying. Great comparison Jake you definitely be knowing ya stuff
Salute 🫡
Man ain't nobody Gona be using a microscope to look at our shoes .
It’s not about that, it’s about getting what you paid for.
@ancientphilosopher Facts! Thank you
@@JacobMarcellus Jacob bro I’m feeling like sh I bought an 11.5 pair from GOAT. Smells horrible out the box, chemical smell similar to fakes, they gotta be overseas release but shipped from Atlanta. 2 columns of air in size 11.5.
@ancientphilosopher it's just fresh bruh
🤡 post
Yea I have a SNKRS pair and a DSG pair and the DSG pair has loose netting on the outer part on both the left and right shoe, plus glue stains that were a bit sloppy. The SNKRS pair has a cheaper black paint on the midsole and it looks like it’s a little faded in certain spots but I researched several pics and noticed that on others pairs as well even the pair used on SNKRS has the faded black midsole if you look closely at the GOT ‘EM picture. I should do a retail vs retail also before I sell the DSG pair because I couldn’t take that loose netting, can’t fix that, I’d rather repaint the midsole.
Make it happen bro.
@@JacobMarcellus (UPDATE) I made the video!…Question, for the stitching around the toe box (the grey part) how many stitch lines does each have going around? One of my pair has 18 stitch lines and the other has 16 stitch lines, was wondering because your pairs look to be different as well.
I wear a size 14/15 and now that they make fakes in those sizes it’s strictly retail or bust for me from now on. I hit both on the SNKRS shock drop and RD. SD is LN4 RD is LNM and they both actually look a little different
4:39 the overseas retail pairs are from SZ factories and has the different box label too. So now it’s harder to LC the overseas pairs
Bro thank you. My pair came from Austria and it only had the men's size and says SZ but everything else check out as the real pairs even the space between the I and the K in the "nike " logo . So they are fake because someone calls them fake and don't have the women's sizing? I bought from goat . Smh
@asavofficial6504 I got a pair from goat and they came from Australia too did your have the blue stamp? Mine did stitching was great but when I put a black light to it the bottom part where it's red was glowing. Are they fake??
@danielochoa-bx9yu I have no idea lol I hope not because goat should be a reliable source for shoes and should have professional sneaker authentication smh. But I wish I knew everything checked out for the most part for me
Same here I copped from goat and have the sz factory and the bottom glows with the black light
It's seems like all the legit SZ pairs glow in UV light so y'all are good. I heard ppl bought pairs from official NIKE and they glow.
I was lucky enough to get a pair, I got to the store at 4am and there were already 7 people there waiting in line, by the time they opened there were at least 50 people in line, they sold out quick
Wow that’s crazy! Glad you got a pair.
Where do you buy the fake from? 🤷
I have a question, does the sticker should always be that way in authentic pairs, showing womens sizes? Bec here there are people who sell authentic/retail pairs but doesn’t have that sticker in the box that shows womens sizes. Can anyone confirm if some retails have this?
The international version does not have the woman sizing on the box and from what I’ve seen is that it's produced in the SZ factory. The US pairs have both sizing and they're produced in the LNM factory.
@@dg8197i’ve seen several videos of it real vs fake. My pair very much resembles the UA pair when it comes to the insoles, the glowing of the tip of the shoelaces and red part of the sole under UV/blacklight, the thickness of the mesh/cage, toebox shape and my pair was purchased through nike’s authorized retailer. How is it that an authentic pair have the flair of a UA pair especially if you paid for SRP? Without the receipt how can nike tell if it’s authentic or not, maybe it will pass as an authentic here but when I bring the pair in the US, it will be categorized as a fake with no to little value. I’ve read somewhere is that nike started production before making it final that the shoe will have the SB4’s features, and maybe for them not to lose the money from the initial production, they decided to release them to countries like ours whom most people wouldn’t notice the difference, or worse sold some of it to unauthorized/replica suppliers that’s why the UA looks so identical to the ones sold in retail stores. I do feel bad since I didn’t get the updated/final product of the shoe. How could nike do this?
Look on the back where the AIR is The left is lower (UA) the right is higher
Drop EU the box label do not have women size, only men🧐
Yep
that chicago emporium retail looks off by a mile
Since they made so many im guessing they ran out of material or switched out material because they made almost maybe 500,000 not or more even cause people are still saying there’s probably another restock gonna happen so I mean if we look at the white cement they made a lot of those and those had a lot of inconsistent things on them it’s not even just cute QT problems it was like probably different ways. They were doing the material and not realizing like oh we fucked up but as long as they’re legit, can’t complain because I mean look at the ones of the lost and found you did you said there were so many different qualities of the one you got right away and then the other one you got and you were like damn, these are gonna be my fucking beaters and these ones are gonna be my my fucking sit on the shelves so I mean they’re just too many differences and retails cause if we can actually truly like see them sit and compare them in house probably like oh I’m gonna go to a Nike store. See if they’re different there or go to a Foot Locker. See if they’re different there and match all the different pairs of retail, I mean you’re gonna find some different qualities of probably all them again at least they’re real
Maybe it’s just me but the font on the retail looks thinner then the other
Yes, it’s mentioned in the video
My bad I was listening without headphones so I wasn’t able to hear the video
I got a pair off stockx qnd bro i came to find about its a fake thanks to your fake vs retail video. First big difference was the leather. The leather on the fake was just too smooth. And the leather on the retail was tumbled. And when i used a black light the sole of the fakes turned crimson red. And the insole had lettering on the backside as for the retail it has not. So bummed out about stockx
Man people really have us doubting sneakers we buy and no one out here has real shoe knowledge Nike has so many factories overseas and the US is not the only place that gets sneaker releases. And leather is taken care of differently in places it doesn’t mean it’s fake. If that’s the case all these CZcamsrs with early pairs are fake because none of these shoes stores are giving away early pairs. And to get Nike authorized approval you need to have half a million dollars and they shoes come in questionable sometimes to be real.
@@sonofgod8442dont about all that. But one pair of my bred reimagined the outsole turns crimson red with the blacklight as for the retail the outsole does not.
The quality control on some of these runs have been horrible. Ive missed out on trying to cop the Bred 4's & Red Cement 4's.....but after seeing all the inconsistent netting, im not to upset over it. The GS & PS runs have been absolute crap, all covered in glue as well
Those size labels dont match 🤔
How come the bag says kids footlocker but it’s a size 12?
Good vid tho bro bro
That’s the bag they gave me 🤷🏾♂️.
The outsole of my retail pair glows with the UV light. They’re from SNKRS
The sole of my shoes glow too. I got mine from goat they came from Europe too
@@danielochoa-bx9yu yup, many inconsistencies in retail pairs
@@danielochoa-bx9yuthey say the Europe pair is legit and also the size sticker says only one size instead both like the us pair men and women I have the same pair you have from goat
Why does it seem like all the reimagined Jordan’s have to have a lot of QC issues and so many differences from one legit shoe to the next? makes it easier for reps to slide by on these
Bc they are massed produced and produced in different factories. Thats why its hard aab to legit check
Yep. Ill rather buy a rep of these. Unless you getting from a legit store the reps that close already.
Explain why yall buy all the shoe's up from people like me that barley get a chance to get jordans
He didn’t buy up anything 😂
There is never a pair of shoes that are identical
I personally have 3 retail pairs, and all of them look different…
Nike QC can't even get their own shoes to look alike these days 😂 it's a dope shoe regardless! 🔥
Humans make these shoes, and so ain't no way they all are going to be identical
@@anwarwilliams9246 I get that, but they get measurements and shapes off all the time, I'm sure mass producing them super fast ain't helping either
every shoe is a hit or miss..you really Cant tell...the Box will give it away. Not all major shoe outlets have the same Factory they get the shoes from
Oh shit
My first time seeing one of your videos. I’ll try not to judge based off of this one video….
Thanks for watching! 👍🏾
I coped these
They got you bro lol 😂 jk
🤣🤣🤣
With the quality of replicas now it doesn't make sense to buy retail to begin with. They all for the most part comes from China 😂😂😂
Being made in China doesn’t validate anything.
@@JacobMarcellus Who said it did???
@@DigitalNomad9209 your statement does🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️. Why buy retail for the most part they all come from china. What does they both come from china prove?
THESE YOUR 1ST PAIR OF JORDAN'S... 😂😂😂😂
Surprise! You win first asinine comment of the year. 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
You can clearly see the backdrop with other jordans 🤦🏿♂️
