I was thinking the same. The lasering is from the strap on the 20's. Gotta be labs though because of the uniform construction.....but inner sockliner is not leather
I was wondering about the sockliner too bc I wasn't shown a pic when I was told about the 4 Lab 20 being a possible release. I know there are other samples of this shoe with differences tho so this pair could be a sample without leather liner and release pairs will have it. This is definitely a sample, rather than a stolen-off-the-production-line pair, and you can see the plastic loop in the top lace hole on the back side that holds the sample info tag.
One was described the same as this one but white "leather" instead of Scotchlite... but they did the Ray Allen Christmas XX with 3M for Xmas 2012 so if they used the 3M it would still be a shoe using just AJ4 and AJ20 characteristics and fit the "Lab" concept. And of course the 3M is a feature they know sells well. I want to see high res pics of the lasering and see what story they are trying to tell.
