- This episode of Guided Laces features the Air Jordan 4 Red Thunder. Guided Laces is not a sneaker review, but a detailed look at sneakers that have come from official, retail stores. Guided Laces serves the purpose of helping sneakerheads authenticate their kicks to avoid being scammed by those selling sneakers via secondary markets.
**Keep in mind, this is ONLY a guide to authenticity. Retail sneakers tend to vary due to production flaws and other inconsistencies, so every sneaker will not look exactly the same. **

Just a quick tip all Jordan fake sellers only sell full size they never made half size if you not be scammed go for half sizes for example if you are size 9 Us and you are very sure if they are authentic go for 9.5 they never sell size with a half I hope this tips can help
Great tip, Luis! Thank you!
so how does most of myt UA jordan 1 i can get in a 10.5? stop spreading false info
Wow, is this true? If so, good thinking.
Not true they got 10.5 in UAs so that's not an indication
@@SWAGURA just big sizes 11 through on
This video made me a lot more comfortable. I bought a pair of these at Hibbett but not my size. Took them to a place a hour and a half away to swap for my size and I didn’t even think to check them. I come from work today and stumbled on this video and noticed on the heal of one of my 4’s the jumpman foot is REALLY close to the edge near the stitching and it scared me. But this video made me a little more at ease. Ahhhh I hate that the resellers have ruined the shoe game. Shoes shouldn’t go for over retail.
I really appreciate your comment, Bird! And that's exactly why I do these videos, to help put you all at ease with your sneakers. I know how tough it is to get sneakers nowadays, but I still love the culture. Enjoy your kicks 👊🏽😎
@@retrospectivedave9018 you know a site I can have my shoes looked at?
I don't have much knowledge of sites that legit check, to be honest.
i bought a used pair thinking theyre so cheap just because of their condition, turns out theyre fakes lol. now im stuck with a fake used pair, they look pretty good tho, really hard to tell on foot.
I just got my pair today from the SNKRS app ! Just watched your vid and they are legit ! Thanks bro
I appreciate that, Roger! Thank you, and enjoy your snkrs 👊🏽😎
@@retrospectivedave9018is Poshmark a good app to order mines coming tmrw .
Thank you for posting this info!!!
No problem! That's what the channel is for 👊🏽😎
If you need to get the insole lifted, warm up the adhesive by sticking a hair dryer or heat-gun on low & inside the shoe for a bit and that will make the adhesive more pliable and the insole will easily lift up. Def appreciate the info on the legit check tho. I got mine from FnL, Foot locker, & Jimmy Jazz but I still like to check over my shit regardless.
I appreciate the tip, GraV! Definitely going to try that method. And thank you for the support 👊🏽😎
Thanks for the video, Can you do one on the Air Jordan 1 PATENT BRED... keep the video's coming
Thanks bro helped a lot
I'm glad it did! Thank you 👊🏽😎
Nice video man!
Much appreciated 🙏🏽....Thank you for tuning in 😎
Thank you, I just got my red thunders in from stock x, I opened the box and there was a yellow sticky note on the lid that read “Can’t Auth” also came to find out that they didn’t even have a stock x tag on them, pretty peculiar huh?
Very
What did StockX say when you asked about it?
Mine were authenticated but it looks kinda sus ngl
Some companies are fake. Is there a way to know which company is fake?
Thanks for commenting, Ceeclue! Yes, usually if a company has a full size run avaiLAble and the price is set at retail or below, then it's most likely a company selling counterfeits. This is excluding StockX, GOAT, and sneaker boutiques.
For example:
Red Thunder 4
Sizes 3.5 - 15 avaiLAble for $190 when the going price is $350-400 is not authentic.
nice video! i just got my pair for about 100$ and I was scared that they were fake but seems like I got a steal.
Steals and deals are always great 👍🏽 Unfortunately in today's sneaker climate, a good price will scare someone off. But, I'm glad you were able to find a pair for the low. Enjoy them 👊🏽😎
My box from Jimmy Jazz is different from Footlocker. The Jimmy Jazz box has a hole to the right of the size tag, Footlocker doesn’t. Should I be alarmed?
That's strange....Are they both Men's sizes? If not, maybe there's a different box for the GS and PS sizes.
@@retrospectivedave9018 Both are men’s size 10. Not sure if they are from an early batch. I know Jimmy Jazz is not selling fakes. I’m still researching this.
@@anthonychiefharrison2427 maybe not Jimmy Jazz, but employee could have switched them out 🤷🏼♂️
Yes, I would definitely look into that. Cross reference it with other boxes in your city. If you have a consignment shop near you, I would start there.
My box also has a hole 🤔
The leather under the wing is too high on my right shoe side. It's easy over the wing. The remaining points you mentioned in the video pass. Do you think it's just a manufacturing error? is only on one side
Thanks for your question, Kein! Yes, it is possible that it was a manufacturing flaw.
I purchased the "A Star is Born" Jordan 1 from Foot Locker a few years back, and one shoe is slightly taller than the other shoe. Can't tell on feet, but manufacturing flaws do happen 👊🏽😎
RETROspectiveDAVE okay thx 🤝
Thank u DAVE i bought a pair of thunder reds off goat paid 447$ i got scared cuz I thought they were fake but nope thank u i even checked with a black light
You're welcome! And I'm happy to read that you're satisfied with your order! Enjoy your kicks 👊🏽😎
I got mine from StockX but mine don’t have the red dots on the outside wings on both shoes. Do you think they’re fake? The ones with the fits don’t feel like braille. It’s just flat.
Thanks for commenting, Jaspreet. Do you live near a consignment store so that you can compare your sneakers to another pair in person?
My shoes passed all the checks apart from the last check where the box has a YDM sticker. Does this mean they’re still authentic?
Thanks for commenting Adil!
It doesn't necessarily mean they're fake. Someone probably failed to put the sticker in the box.
Can you do a video on this shoe again but show the tab the flaps
Mine passes everything except that it doesn’t have the red dots on the inside of the wings. Does that mean mine are fake?
I wouldn't necessarily say that would make them fake. I suggest comparing your pairs to other pairs to see if there is a consistency with the red dots or not.
@@retrospectivedave9018 I compared it to my friends and the only thing that was off was the consistency of the red dots on the wings. Everything else was identical
Preschool sizing doesn't have the Air Jordan tag on the back of the tongue.
Subd, i like how tou pointed out all those details 🙌🏼💯
Thanks, A G!
I'm gLAd you enjoyed the video
@@retrospectivedave9018 no problem. Looking forward for more 🤙🏼
I got a pair from Nike and it came with a hole on the right side of the price tag, are some of the boxes different?
Seems like that's the case. Nike could've switched boxes midway through production for whatever reason. Not sure of an exact reason, but it happens. Not the 1st time I've seen that. I believe the "Strange Love" dunk low had two different (general) boxes. Or the P-Rod dunk high...It was one of the two 👊🏽😎
My box has a hole on the price tag side aswell 🤔
Mine too🤔
I think I might have gotten fake ones but I think their real because I got the ones without the bubble
I got mine from stock x should I be worried if I got fake ones
yooo 💯💯💯 DO JORDAN 4 uncs frrrr
I thought about doing that one, Alex. Might make that happen soon 👊🏽😎
i did a trade with a friend and i looked at this vid i think they are fake bc the serial number is the same on both sides
Send me a pic of the serial number you're referring to, so I can make sure you're talking about the correct serial number
Can back of jumpman logo be red or what
It's possible. I'd have to get a donor pair to see.
I bought a pair of fake 5s and my doctor thinks they are the cause of my sciatica : /
Mine doesn’t say cn 300, it says cn 275
Hey, Ab! Thanks for commenting. You probably wear a smaller shoe size.
The red on my jordans almost looks pink and I didn't even get the hang tag smh I believe I got scammed.
I also didn't get the hangman tag either.
if the flap goes back is it fake??
Which flap are you referring to?
@@retrospectivedave9018 the little flap thing in the back of the shoe
Gotcha. No, that doesn't mean they're fake.
Is it a red flag if I get black paper in my box?
Let me know if it is it’s size 10
Thanks for reaching out, Nick! So, I would say it is simply because that's not the original paper that comes with the retail pair.
However, I don't know what went on during Nike's production either. They could've switched paper midway through production...Or if you purchased your pair from someone else, that person could've switched the paper (not sure why they would though).
@@retrospectivedave9018 thank you so much I’m planning to meet a guy that has them today and from your video im gonna look for all the things to make sure they are real 🤟
No problem! If you can remember, please reach to let me know how things went! Be safe and thank you 👊🏽😎
@@retrospectivedave9018 man you are a LIFE SAVER the shoes were fake thanks to you I didn’t get scammed thank you so much man 🤟
Only different in my red thunder shoes is the sizing tag note and it says 3/17/21 | 05/10/21
Thanks for commenting, Kiky. Yeah, the dates will vary from pair to pair because all of them weren't made at the same time.
Nice ass shoes tho
They're definitely one of my favorite 4's outside of the originals
Yup you just confirmed I bought fakes …. Sigh.
I hate reading this. Hopefully, you're able to get your money back.
Do Theo habe a Tag ?
Do you mean a hang tag?
@@retrospectivedave9018 yeah
No hang tag
All these shoes are going to have slight differences, real for fake it’s comes from the same source
I can't speak on the sources being the same because I don't have any knowledge of that, personally. But, there will DEFINITELY be slight differences in how the shoes are made.
After watching this video I think I got reps 😭
Hey, green-beanz99! Thanks for commenting, and I'm sorry that you feel that way about your shoes. What makes you think they aren't authentic?
