remember how people use to say jordan brands quality is so crappy? and how fakes would soon catch up?
remember that one guy with the fake x that fooled everyone?
i wouldnt be surprised if dudes been screwing you guys over for years...
these dudes are smart though. they know what to manufacture to maximize their profit. if they sold a shoe that wasnt coming out in a few months their game would be over...

I would like to see the pics of your Jumpmans.
The Cool Greys used 106 stitchings on the Jumpman, Concords about 126 or so.
That's 20 more stitchings, more details.
See how the jumpman face is f'ed up, the fingers aren't seperated either..

The moment the Concords officially release on December 23rd.. And To those of us who bought em early from Air Randy, Vmvinc, rmk, marqueesole, etc just to name a few.. Will be doing comparisons and prove that they are legit. You guys are on the fake bandwagon walking around claiming fake fake fake on everything you see. OG heads been buying from these sites for years and nobody jumped on the fake wagon back then. It all revolves around the stupid hype of this shoe. You guys are probably the ones that call hypebeast on everything and probably say the word "game"... Only time will tell.

im an og head and aint EVER buy a damn thing from them sites.
you can compare all you want but you would be foolish to think fakes arent good enough to replicate a shoe to a t now.
sounds like you are on the denial bandwagon...
all you need is a good reputation and a website these days to push "replicas"
best thing buyers can do is be patient and purchase at a store.
this isnt high school. nobody cares anymore if you get your shoes early...

Here's something for you fake bandwagoners to think about. Did you know that many companies allow early sale of their product to small companies for the purpose of marketing so that it drives the sale on official release date to sky rocket. Even though Air Jordan Concords will sell out in seconds on release date however the marketing scheme is have someone walking around in these "soon to be released product" in public and the natural public reaction will be "oh I'm gettin them on release day!!"... Nike used MJ for that same purpose. He rocked his newly released shoes a year before they even drop to cause buzz & hype. Now that MJ is not playing and the Internet is around why not sell some bulk to these websites. I'm pretty sure Nike gets a cut. Just saying..

Please do, the last thing Nike needs to do is sell "soon to be released product" to a couple guys in Asia. All the marketing they need is the fact that these haven't been retro'd in forever so everyone wants them.
I think people walking around in the 00' 01' Concords is all the marketing needed.
Theres no fake bandwagon but it is clear that those who criticize others for believing these are fakes didn't know or have forgotten that these "small companies" you mention like AR have been busted for selling fakes before.
The proof is right in front of you and hard to digest so I don't blame you for not believing.

Nike is in NO WAY authorizing the sale from these international early release sellers. They are not getting a cut. Nike doesn't need early release shoes to create "buzz". Being an OG head you should know it was unheard of 10 years ago to get a release Jordan product MONTHS early.

We are all just speculating.. How do you know if Nike does or doesn't authorize anything? Hell they ran sweat shops in Vietnam.. Anythings possible.

Just ordered from promo-shoes.
Good service/communication.
Ordered 3 pairs of size 10 last night, paid VIA paypal.
Got an email this morning stating they only have 2 size 10s in stock and gave me an option for 9.5 or 10.5, but I declined emailling them to just refund one pair and send 2 size 10s.
Minutes later I get my partial refund and now I just got my tracking.
Good business ethics.
They could have "not communicated" "held on to my money" "send me a size I didn't want" etc etc...
I am more than satisfied.

Anyone received their refund from SDS yet? Been 3 days since Jay e-mailed me and said they were refunding my money. They have 5 days to respond to my claim before paypal gives me back my money.

Well, having your money held up, sux............but you should rest easy knowing that your money will be back in your account in about 2 days. Might seem like eternity right now, but its actually not that far away.
I am about to get on a plane to China for all my NT brothas!

The time spent in customs is a crap shoot. I have experience where the shoe was in and out in just a few hours, but I also have experience where it was literally held up for almost 2 weeks.....
The one that was held up for 2 weeks, were the 2 CG XIs i ordered from crookedtongue.
Another strange thing about customs that i read on here before, is that there was a guy who supposedly live on the east coast, and ordered some shoes from Europe, I think? And somehow the shoes ended up in customs in San Francisco or something. I thought that was the strangest thing ever.

Lol wow, from Europe to Cali? That's definitely strange, and irritating. I ordered the Quai 54's from someone in the UK, and by the time dude sent me the tracking number I had already received the shoes ... I'm guessing mine went through NYC customs though? Lol
