Im no expert on 13s but I thought they made a few number of these and released up north. That wasnt in 2011 though as your tag on the tongue states. And if it were 2011, I would think it wss have a UPC since they were produced. Idk maybe I'm wrong on the production but thats what I thought. The 7-17-11 is red flag to me. Also, it could just be the lighting but on the soles where the "carbon fiber" is looks shiny like plastic
