Better than those awful "Christmas in South Beach" monstrosities.
Which fake colorways have been better?

The HWC colorway and that whiteout pair that were posted had some folks interested until unveiled they were rep.
The rep HOLs are popping up but the soles are a dead giveaway

Eyelets are also wrong. They're not metal and the padding behind the posite is is wrong

Dunk Forces are fire
Posite is definitely the darkest shade of forest green known to man, aka "black."
The Chinook helo and dunkman on the back tag is also very nice.

They do have some neat little features like you mentioned.

I wore them for a game on Sunday night and I still couldn't tell the posite wasn't black, kept looking down at it.

I can't say I love it, but it's pretty important from a performance standpoint. Probably makes a big difference in terms of lockdown and durability

Really the only thing I can't stand about the shoe is the lacing system. But especially as a casual wearer, it's not a big deal because of the bootie-style containment. I could wear these without any laces and still be somewhat comfortable.
The glue overlay doesn't bother me that much, at least not aesthetically. The "megafuse" provides a surprising amount of structure. But long-term durability remains a question because of reliance on glue for support. Also, I think particular colorways are going to look "off" because of the glue. Primarily dark uppers.

Thanks @tigo0240 you put it better
That's what I was trying to get at --- that the glue overlay adds structure to that woven-like material underneath. This comes in key while hooping with the cuts, stops, etc -- straight mesh would be comfy, but I would be a lot more concerned about the life of the upper

Oh, and if anyone finds the "reflect silver" on the DF, let me know. That swoosh is definitely not 3M

yeah the bright spot about the lacing system is you can be as sloppy as you wanna be with the laces.

I was thinking the same thing. People really only watch the game to see what shoe he wearing. That's just weird to me. Can't a man just turn the game on to witness the 3rd best player of the modern era
