@@branphloe-mixes how you a show off if you didn't spend hundreds for the real pair? shoes touch the ground and collect dirt at an equal rate. i got some fake travis scott 1's.

As a person who sells stuff I'm glad to know theres people like you who fall for the hype though lol.
@@stephenbeary7887 I actually like the shoes, not just for the hype. The lows are better than the highs because it’s a nice shoe and the release was better because stock was high, SNKRS even gave a second chance at these later, the Travis high drop however was terrible as non of us got a pair. I do know a lot of people say A Ma Maniere is sneaker of the year because it’s popular, the story behind them, how clean the shoe is, and most people where able to cop for retail. I won the lows on SNKRS and just by having them before I sold them, I’d put them second as sneaker of the year.
Thanks man. I really appreciate this video. This stuff is like that Loki series where they kept hearing about the Time-Keepers but when they finally meet them, turns out they didn't even exist. Just a bunch of low functioning robots. That's what buying shoes is like now. But these fakes, that's crazy. It does explain the re-sale market though.
Nice review and comparison of the legit and fake jordans! how can we find out if these sites selling fake jordans are safe or not? Asking for a friend... haha
You can get an almost perfect unauthorized authorized for $125 actually, just saying. I don't support ua/fake, but I am not against also. I'm surely not paying a whopping 5,6 hundreds of dollars to resellers for just some shoes. Thanks for the great video as always..
100% agree with your take. If these fakes are getting so good that they’re indistinguishable then why pay hundreds more on the resale market. I wish Nike and Jordan brand would change and let fans and customers get their shoes but I don’t see it changing any time soon.
@@SixtyDashOne squirrels in general are awesome at my high school years ago someone somehow was able to catch some of the squirrels and put red capes on them and the little guys didn’t take them off it was funny to see them digging in the trash looking for food with the red capes or running through the courtyard with the capes
It's crazy how great fakes look these days. I remember when the fake ones had the Jumpman logo doing jumping jacks or dribbling the ball or the shape was so off that they looked like a whole different shoe. I don't endorse buying fakes, but i also don't endorse making rich dickheads any richer so...
correction, scalpers who got connections inside the store and get all the majority of stocks, for reselling. hell even employees of jordan store here have some mysterious actions, where people who have not entered a raffle get an email that they got disqualified for reselling, or even those who already won, magically got that same email on release day. but i agree, most of them are rich already.
So true. I endorse buying fakes as Nike don’t care about customers, only the bottom line. The quality has declined and if I’m getting the same or better quality cheaper from UA sellers then why not get those in my opinion.
Man, Jordan Brand moving the OG Low mold from that 2015 run/both Travis Scott pairs/that Chinese New Year pair is ENTIRELY the reason I passed on both the Natural Grays and those White/Black/Oranges. I respect that some people like the Koston SB Low mold better, but I hate that they've become the default now. That large swoosh and bigger toebox/smaller mudguard look so much nicer in my opinion. Great video as always!
😂 this dude funny af, I love watching him cuz he keeps it REAL ! Remember when that seller sold 200 FAKE PAIRS of Travis Jordan 1 High Mochas to StockX and 90% of them passed verification?!?! He went on FB to say “If you bought TS1 Mochas from StockX, chances are YOU’RE WEARING MY FAKES” Thats how good Fakes are getting
Hey man this is my first comment ever on any video. I appreciate you giving so much detailed backstory for every pair. Sneaker game is harsh man but I definitely think if this continues this market gonna break one way or another and these kind of high quality replica makers will be in very high profit. Because getting anything from retail is impossible. lets be real I've met people who are getting Ls from 4 years. They have to implement a better way of doing this shit. It's definitely not working for humans and bots are getting away with everything. On resell not everyone can afford 500$+ pair people are already hardly saving that 170$. I personally think buying anything above 350-400$ is not worth it just imo. We shouldn't support this toxic culture anymore. Thankfully Replicas are getting better and better so people getting Ls can buy something at least. I personally don't buy them but I'm happy for the one that do get them.
That black light test rarely works nowadays, it was a Great way to tell if sneakers were reps for years but in the last 12 months most reps match their retail counterparts perfectly when it comes to the black light test
I hope Nike is watching. Thanks for taking a massive dump on their quality control, their release process and how ridiculously limited some of their materials are and basically telling them “We don’t have to go to you for your own product if you don’t make it accessible to us.” Lmao. The sneaker game needs MAJOR changes and you highlighted why brilliantly. Thanks Chris.
Glad someone as big as you and also in my opinion top sneaker reviewer is representing just how damn good replicas are now. No reason to spend over 500$/1,000$ on resale for sneakers when replicas are just as good (as long as you do your research and buy from a trustworthy seller) and cost even less than the retail price. I did my research a couple months ago and tested the waters buying 1 rep and haven’t paid resale for a sneaker since. I’ve saved so much money and wish I would’ve known earlier. I feel like so many people have this stigma towards fake/rep sneakers and because of that a lot of people don’t even speak on them or shame them. Fact of the matter is they’re just as good of a product, in some cases I’ve ran into materials are even better quality. Bravo night wing 👏🏽
do you know any trustworthy rep seller? i just saw that your comment was 2 years ago and looks like nothing has changed since. resale is just too expensive.
I just got into the rep game. I been buying retail for years and sometimes resell and I gotta say the rep game is on par with retail at this point. They’ve perfected the art of replicating and them Travis if you find the right seller you will be amazed how good the quality is now.
For me personally, I’m not spending a car note for kicks. Secondly, I’ve noticed that some rep pairs have the “Cactus Jack” lettering really close and tumbled leather on the heel. The leather quality is A1 tho
Right. Folks need to be careful buying these kicks on the resale market. Watch out for the scammers reselling fakes as "Real" crazy how good fakes have gotten, & getting these days.
Just fot the record if somebody says the fake leather is buttery or soft that just means it's fake . That's not a good thing . Leather is not soft but plastic and cardboard can be made to be soft
Literally today I got my StockX pair and my right show had a few of those glue spots only seen with UV light. I appreciate you stating that the real pairs have those glue spots because I was honestly worried all day.
Finally... Someone says it ... As an OG that has saved and purchased every pair of Jordans that I have ever wanted and had my mother waiting in lines... Purchased the same shoe 3 to 4 times as they've retroed.... I will NEVER pay resell and it's impossible to hit on snkrs.... So I have to go the next best route... I've earned the right🤷🏻♂️
Not gonna lie, I’ve been waiting for this video since you teased it in the AJ1 Pollen video I think. After I rage copped the UNC 1s, I said I wouldn’t pay resale on a pair of J1s ever again. But then I saw the AJ1 85 varsity red and I came close to buying them. Thankfully I didn’t and got a fake/rep pair. And I was blown away with how good they were. The leather on them is good and broken in now and I’m in love with them. I’ll go the rep route before I pay resale on something ever again.
Deadass. I had 3 pairs of yeezy before I stumbled upon good reps. Got my first pair and I was shocked on how well everything was replicated, even down to the boost.
@Michael Romero oh wow really?! i think they're the most comfortable Jordan 1 i own hands down! the insole is a godsend and a complete change of pace for me cause i've had to change literally every insole on my J1 immediately because they're so uncomfortable. i've worn them nearly every day since i got em in and it's hard to take em off
Thank you for the review! I have two pair of these that are UA and the quality is better than any pair I've ever received from Nike. I wear the hell out of these and people comment all the time...that they are 🔥 So thanks to all the resellers out there...never have to pay ridiculous prices again or be bummed that I didn't GET EM💯
I can see that they used the wrong vamp on the "OG low" 85 greys AND the new Starfish lows. I like how they ruined the OG swoosh, too. I wish Nike wouldn't do that.
Yo og, i know this an old video.. i was thinking to buy ‘real pair’ but after hearing yr advice and the outcome from this video it is super scary.. better i just use that money to travel… for me u r the best and the most genuine sneakerhead youtuber.. stay og boss… do not change😅🙏
Been waiting for you to review this shoe and surprisingly there's a twist on it!!! Everything you said was spot on!!!! If i got L's i go for my plan B never will pay thousands of bucks to the resellers no way!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
WANTD.. Tnx for this app.. you guys are amazing but you 2 already know that. TNX for this video well needed to compared TS 1 low. Love you guy's channel
I agree dawg there’s no way I’m paying that tag when there’s an identical fake pair for way less. I don’t rock fakes and don’t knock anybody that do but I always found it rather odd that someone would pay that much for a sneaker or even chance it today but hey do as you will Great review as usual
as a Travis Scott fan, i wouldn’t pay resale whatsoever. yes the sneakers are so fire. but if i miss out, i miss out. at this point, just save your money for the next crazy drop. and who knows, maybe there’s better heat next year🤷♂️
I was literally about to buy a pair the other day and changed my mind last second. The similarities are too close for my liking, didn’t wanna drop $1.3K on them, just to take em out of the box 2 years later and find out “oh yeah those are actually fake btw” 🤷🏻♂️
I mean UA pairs are getting so good now to the point where you might as well rock with it .. instead of getting finessed for resale price , but don’t get me wrong I don’t really prefer UAs honestly. but I would want the authentic’s of course.
They really aren't any different than the real things. Made in the same factories with the same material by the same workers. They just didn't make the final cut so the factories sell them off.
I can't even look at it, it breaks my heart that I have not been able to get a pair myself and then seeing a reseller van full of those ridicolous beautiful kicks :'(
similar to this, you can find Yeeze slides all over the place. Really cheap with identical shape and Color and comfort as well. I mean my wife got one for 18 quid. I was shocked because those ones haven't released yet.
I'm thinking of buying reps and customize them,I really like the colorway, but I really don't like the backwards swoosh, it makes the sneakers look bigger and it disturbs the lines, I would either swap the logos from left shoe to the right, or cut completely new swoosh and stitch it
we're finally moving in a direction where we don't have to worry about fake shoes. as has been proven here, you pay for the same shoes for little money. Love from Holland
Amazing video Chris! Thank you so much. Hope you can pass along the site you got them from. Congrats to all the folks who got them on excl access or otherwise. Would’ve preferred these instead the off-white dunks tbh
This why I'm 1000% a member of the #RepFam. If it's a retro no hype sneaker I will buy a lightly used pair at a reasonable price, if it's something idiot scalpers & dumb prepubescent hype beasts are ruining then I go with the reps. Material quality is A1, craftsmanship is equal to or great than JB's QC, price is perfect, & buy my shoes b/c I love them. Not because some dumb sneaker stock market or internet booger eaters say it's special. Keep up the excellent work Chris & Jodi! Still the best thing happening on YT today! The best there is, the best there was, & the best that ever will be, #WearTesters!!!
Shiiiiit! I agree with all you! Why spend so much and probably not even wear them because you paid so much… shoes are meant to be worn! So with good quality reps I can buy multiple pairs! So I can have one pair for going out and the other for daily activities 🔥 Reps taking over 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
No. They aren’t sourcing the same materials. They ARE the same materials. Made in the same factory’s. Nike will only contract a certain amount. Once that amount is fulfilled. They will still have the same textiles leftover and the same staff. They then will make more pairs with the existing product and then sell them to the black market. They are 1 to 1 identical.
I like that he actually likes sneakers and shoe culture. So many people out here with no love for the culture, just trying to make a quick dollar off those who do. You can tell he ain't even feelin the sponsor WANTD. This illusion of exclusivity that Nike is making, along with loser resellers is ruining this for us all...well all of us who have real jobs and actually wear our Travis Scotts...
What Chris is saying is,, these shoes alrighttt. But for me?! That’s why I don’t mess with hype kicks. As long as I get my legit old school retros, I’m gooooood. 😂 🤟
Reps/fakes have come a long way. For one who has taken L’s on every SNKRS app release, I refuse to drop car notes and mortgages on resell kicks. Rep quality nowadays is damn near 1:1 and you’re also able to get a quality check on your shoes before their shipped. I’m happy with the rep pairs I’ve bought and I feel This is the way to go.
I got a rep or UA or whatever you want to call it pair of these and they're effing fantastic. Matter of fact I got the highs as well. The quality and materials is as good or better than anything I've ever got from Nike. There goes Nike leaving money on the table again.
For whatever reason people feel like UA's are fake. Technically they are stolen. They are made by the same people. But they don't have to go through the same checks as the authentic one's do. That's why they're almost identical.
I wouldn't say stolen, more like a glitch, just so happens some technical issues took place and for any reason unknown they just got produced by the same people on the same line during the same producing period and was not accounted for
That watermark is the tell tale. Fakes don’t have it to my knowledge. Both my OG Travis 1s and my Travis Frag lows, straight from SNKRS, have those marks. I’ve known about this for some time. You’re the first TH-camr I’ve ever seen mention the mark. Goes to show how many of them knew or how many of them know about it or are reviewing authentic pairs.
Exactly what I did copped the rep let the real sit in the closet. I did that to the trav brown lows now look at the price. Reps so good impossible someone call you out unless your in a resell store in which case everybody’s analyzing what’s on feet but even then I doubt it. Reps be 1:1
I don’t even think fakes are really “fake” anymore, at this point. It’s just unauthorized and not sold directly by Nike or one of their account holders, at some point but still made from a Nike factory overseas.
sure but you can still spot a fake from real by check check app and stitching sizes. Nike gets materials made for them so materials on the fakes and on the Nikes will be slightly different when put under a magnifier. but with nike materials getting worse and worse over time thats not really an option anymore.
Honestly I love these shoes so much Idk why but as bad as I want these for what ever reason ,I’m not paying 1k + for them. 160 for a fake pair that looks basically the exact same…
As a sneaker collector I understand why ppl buy fakes, but I can’t bring myself to collect fakes. If I can’t afford I just move onto the next one or save up over time.
At this point, jordan brand are not gonna do anything about fake pairs of shoes cuz in the end it's all about jordan brand. so any kind of influence or promotion about it will hype people into getting the real deal and to them it's a risk worth taking for bigger profits.
Thank you for saying we shouldn't give a shit whether someone chooses to buy real or fakes and rock them. Sincerely, a guy who gets L's a lot.
💯

But fakes have bad quality and it’s copying their work, I would never pay for fakes. Plus I would feel like a show off. 😔

We need a WearTesters Lid Flip, Shoe Smelling Compilation come on give me credit and get this made!!!!!!
I was literally about to buy a pair the other day and changed my mind last second. The similarities are too close for my liking, didn’t wanna drop $1.3K on them, just to take em out of the box 2 years later and find out “oh yeah those are actually fake btw” 🤷🏻♂️
Thank you very much for the video, the defect on the swoosh and on the real pair? Thank you for your answer.
that fucking intro killed me lmao, i can't believe I was looking at the fake pair
If the replica is as good or even better than the retail pair, then why not ?
No reason. Replica all the way
@@jd5637 do you happen to know where he gets it from?
I mean UA pairs are getting so good now to the point where you might as well rock with it .. instead of getting finessed for resale price , but don’t get me wrong I don’t really prefer UAs honestly. but I would want the authentic’s of course.
Your 100% right why pay for the real thing and end up getting a fake. Who’s really going to walk around with a black light and inspect your shoes lol
SHEEEEEEESH my boy Nightwing with the EXTRA heat DAMN
You really had us at 00:40 lmao
reps/ UA comes from the same factory as "retail" pairs
They really aren't any different than the real things. Made in the same factories with the same material by the same workers. They just didn't make the final cut so the factories sell them off.
UA's ARE MAKING IT!!!!!!!! LOVE THIS!
You and MK have been trying to tell em!😂
I can't even look at it, it breaks my heart that I have not been able to get a pair myself and then seeing a reseller van full of those ridicolous beautiful kicks :'(
Get the reps lol. You heard it from Chris, they're the exact same thing!
@@marcos45923 I'm really thinking about it, just to f**k those idiots, maybe I'll hit you up, bro! :D
@@marcos45923 what site loo
similar to this, you can find Yeeze slides all over the place. Really cheap with identical shape and Color and comfort as well. I mean my wife got one for 18 quid. I was shocked because those ones haven't released yet.
I'm thinking of buying reps and customize them,I really like the colorway, but I really don't like the backwards swoosh, it makes the sneakers look bigger and it disturbs the lines, I would either swap the logos from left shoe to the right, or cut completely new swoosh and stitch it
Love the channel bro, you and your wife are hilarious 💯👌🏿
The reverse swoosh on the fake is a shade darker than the authentic pair💯💯💯
we're finally moving in a direction where we don't have to worry about fake shoes. as has been proven here, you pay for the same shoes for little money. Love from Holland
Almost fell out my chair . Chris with Travis lows!!!
Imagine a real person getting picked to get these on SNKRS.
Oh wait, we don't.
I hit on snkrs
This was the first time I hit on snkrs in ages. I almost didn't even enter cause I thought there was no way, but I somehow got em.
You kids are so entitled. Nike doesn’t owe anyone anything
Bots aren’t as effective on SNKRS as other sites/apps. I somehow hit on SNKRS after almost missing the draw lol.
I was shocked I got that W… absolutely, dumbfounded 4 days later, when they gave me EA on OW Dunks 🤷🏽♂️
Amazing video Chris! Thank you so much. Hope you can pass along the site you got them from. Congrats to all the folks who got them on excl access or otherwise. Would’ve preferred these instead the off-white dunks tbh
Bout a pair of reps for these at 180. Arriving tomorrow. Can't wait.
Happy you actually got a pair
I see weartesters
I click
Love this pair, making me seriously consider reps of them.
This why I'm 1000% a member of the #RepFam. If it's a retro no hype sneaker I will buy a lightly used pair at a reasonable price, if it's something idiot scalpers & dumb prepubescent hype beasts are ruining then I go with the reps. Material quality is A1, craftsmanship is equal to or great than JB's QC, price is perfect, & buy my shoes b/c I love them. Not because some dumb sneaker stock market or internet booger eaters say it's special. Keep up the excellent work Chris & Jodi! Still the best thing happening on YT today! The best there is, the best there was, & the best that ever will be, #WearTesters!!!
I can see the difference in shape too man!
Shiiiiit! I agree with all you! Why spend so much and probably not even wear them because you paid so much… shoes are meant to be worn! So with good quality reps I can buy multiple pairs! So I can have one pair for going out and the other for daily activities 🔥 Reps taking over 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
No. They aren’t sourcing the same materials. They ARE the same materials. Made in the same factory’s. Nike will only contract a certain amount. Once that amount is fulfilled. They will still have the same textiles leftover and the same staff. They then will make more pairs with the existing product and then sell them to the black market. They are 1 to 1 identical.
If these things feel the same on feet then I’m in lol
So fresh and so clean!!!! UA is cool with me but don't front! Thanks to you guys for the info.
I like that he actually likes sneakers and shoe culture. So many people out here with no love for the culture, just trying to make a quick dollar off those who do. You can tell he ain't even feelin the sponsor WANTD. This illusion of exclusivity that Nike is making, along with loser resellers is ruining this for us all...well all of us who have real jobs and actually wear our Travis Scotts...
Wanted App just installed 👍🏽 thanks guys!
What Chris is saying is,, these shoes alrighttt. But for me?! That’s why I don’t mess with hype kicks. As long as I get my legit old school retros, I’m gooooood. 😂 🤟
Reps/fakes have come a long way. For one who has taken L’s on every SNKRS app release, I refuse to drop car notes and mortgages on resell kicks. Rep quality nowadays is damn near 1:1 and you’re also able to get a quality check on your shoes before their shipped. I’m happy with the rep pairs I’ve bought and I feel This is the way to go.
Thanks for keeping it 💯 like you always do.
I got a rep or UA or whatever you want to call it pair of these and they're effing fantastic. Matter of fact I got the highs as well. The quality and materials is as good or better than anything I've ever got from Nike. There goes Nike leaving money on the table again.
From where?!
Have always been against fakes no matter what the situation or perspective.Wrong is wrong no excuses.
For whatever reason people feel like UA's are fake. Technically they are stolen. They are made by the same people. But they don't have to go through the same checks as the authentic one's do. That's why they're almost identical.
I wouldn't say stolen, more like a glitch, just so happens some technical issues took place and for any reason unknown they just got produced by the same people on the same line during the same producing period and was not accounted for
That watermark is the tell tale. Fakes don’t have it to my knowledge. Both my OG Travis 1s and my Travis Frag lows, straight from SNKRS, have those marks. I’ve known about this for some time. You’re the first TH-camr I’ve ever seen mention the mark. Goes to show how many of them knew or how many of them know about it or are reviewing authentic pairs.
how you hit on both lmao...
I actually hit on these on SNKRS. I couldn’t believe it. Now I’m torn with keeping them or selling… I need your advice Nightwing!
Wear em
I would sell em and get the fake ones in the video, they are too damn good.
I would buy fakes and wear 'em and keep real 1 for a year to c price go up then sell em
Exactly what I did copped the rep let the real sit in the closet. I did that to the trav brown lows now look at the price. Reps so good impossible someone call you out unless your in a resell store in which case everybody’s analyzing what’s on feet but even then I doubt it. Reps be 1:1
I don’t even think fakes are really “fake” anymore, at this point. It’s just unauthorized and not sold directly by Nike or one of their account holders, at some point but still made from a Nike factory overseas.
sure but you can still spot a fake from real by check check app and stitching sizes. Nike gets materials made for them so materials on the fakes and on the Nikes will be slightly different when put under a magnifier. but with nike materials getting worse and worse over time thats not really an option anymore.
If the fakes have the same build and materials as the original.. Is it still really a "fake" at that point???
My twin brother just hit the restock on these he also hit on the lightning 4s he had a super lucky week
Not sure if you can say or not but where would i get the fake pair you are showing?
I got mine from the sneakers app, after a while the logo on the sole came off…I was immediately worried and then stopped caring shortly after lol
Honestly I love these shoes so much Idk why but as bad as I want these for what ever reason ,I’m not paying 1k + for them. 160 for a fake pair that looks basically the exact same…
As a sneaker collector I understand why ppl buy fakes, but I can’t bring myself to collect fakes. If I can’t afford I just move onto the next one or save up over time.
I draw the line for resell when the shoe goes over 2x it’s retail price. It’s just a lot of money to lose if you end up with a fake pair
Gotta say the silhouette of these lows look awesome compared to most gr's being pumped out by Nike. That toe shape is 🔥 🔥 🔥!
At this point, jordan brand are not gonna do anything about fake pairs of shoes cuz in the end it's all about jordan brand. so any kind of influence or promotion about it will hype people into getting the real deal and to them it's a risk worth taking for bigger profits.
