Honestly it makes so easy to discount flaws because the retail shoes to begin with all have issues as well. Missing stitching, stains/paint marks, unpainted areas/over painted areas. Ive had 11's that I bought from finishline that the lace loops didnt line up across the shoe itself let alone the pair. And this happens often, not just some times and we simply discount it as "Crappy JB quality". Tons of people go through boxes of shoes at their Local retailer before being able to find one that is acceptable. ANd by acceptable i mean the one with the least amount of flaws lol. If quality is an issue for shoes that go through quality control best believe itll be a bigger issue with the ones that dont. Thats the trade off with not paying significantly less than current market value of a shoe I suppose.see i dont get it. we have legit checks where every detail of the shoe is looked at for authenticity. if anything is off everyone cries FAKE, yet here people see the same flaws and say "GM pair so its ok, its still real". and u wouldnt buy candy from sneakerape. no store should have full size runs of every shoe for less than resale price, but thats just me i guess.....
