No rings shown = these the 98% Authentic pairs. Rings are being disputed of the Ring should have a black or white area on it behind jumpman.

My viewpoint on Fake/BGrade (98%) and Retail:
Personally I have no bad will to dudes buying the 98% Authentic (super-perfects , perfects and just straight up fake shyt I don't agree with) If it isn't from Nike factory and from knock off factory it is fake.

From my understanding the 98% real pair are just shyt Nike took off the assembly line due to flaws. I could be wrong. But so far that is what people say they are.

I don't own any. But trust I have looked at a few on youtube and come up with my viewpoint. To each their own. And they still COST $$$, not saying price is the gatekeeper. But it is the way to remain exclusiveness.

The only issue I have is If someone tried to sell me a BGrade/98% pair as a Retail pair. That is flaw.

Again -- Me personally I don't own any BUT a few that I couldn't get online except from hefty resellers have caught my eye. As a collector, you better believe they caught my eye. But right now Im still just buying non-hyped shoes. Hyperposites, Griffeys and Zoom Revis etc

B grades hit the outlets so they still official. but what do you mean "Nike factory"? cause nike don't own them. once they fulfil they nike order they just keep producing, but with (i guess) cheaper materials and less oversight

Factories Nike sanctioned, where these Chinese dudes realized ya know the 200 pair that they didn't want due to a flaw between pair 799 and 999 or so got pulled. These dudes was just on strike. I know they stealing and reselling product, why wouldn't they do it?

What is easier, rebuild entire shoes with stolen material -or- keep an extra 1,000 pair to sell AFTER you fulfill Nike order. Like I said I don't own any but the days of just fake shoes is over.

Last year I posted a known resler in my area getting a container of shoes stuffed, and the boxes separate. And he sold them as Real Deal... then with Instagram,, and DaclosetCollectors, Air Randy, Marqueesole selling fakes I kept digging.

How they keep getting restocks, of shyt ..... Even Nike restocks could be backordered Chinese shyt for all I know.

I just believe the sneaker game is real muddy right now. So I have stopped judging people, shyt even Kanye signed that fake pair. He called him on it- but he signed it.

I don't own any --- But the shyt getting to the point of , if you miss a major release and you buy from Ebay or the Chinese, or any reseller. You might get the same product.

Just copped some Zoom Revis from Orlando outlet for $32.00 (Retail $160.00)

This why I keep my receipts. And when I sell I provide it.

The way Nike handle business is why I lost faith in this industry though... fukk em.I still have love for the shoes though. And still only rock Nike/Jordan Brand on my feet.
