  • Went hard on the explosive sole, didn't had to but lol. I saw the first vid of this where you commented on the glue smell and some other stuff and just said it is what it is, and after you found out that the hard earnd money were for a fake, no wonder you split the sole from the shoe went all Hulk on it.. Made me laugh on the Viagra comment, too bad on the money again, just gotta be careful.

  • man i need a new pair of grey sneakers

  • Is mental kicks legit?

  • So is mental kick's a legit site??

  • Thank God, there are no profane words that was used, not like fraydog313. Very educational video! Thank you so much!

  • HE HAS IT MIX UP HE SAYS THE ONE TO HIS RIGHT IS VMVINC BUT IT HAS PICK YOUR PAR STUFF IN IT

  • funniest part of the video..."this is limp, this needs viagra" lmao

  • Wait, those 2011's inserts were from a fake? THANK GOD

  • Did the 2011 Concords have fake carbon fiber?

  • Comment removed

  • Ok well since these are fake/ b grades what do you think about the white 25th anniversary Jordan xi now those are b grades and I got them from footlocker

  • the vmv samples are really creased bad do the originals crease that bad as quick also?

  • Vivinc lmao

  • Whats The Websites?

  • my black cement 3s are 3 weeks and i bought them at finish line

  • Dude you're like the sneakerhead sherlock holmes lol. All jokes aside though, THANK YOU. Damn thats messed up. I got my Cement 3s from marqueesole last summer and a fresh pair from footlocker when they officially released. I'm def gonna examine the crap outta those pair. Its soo wrong how many ppl get ripped off and for all that money too smh.

  • I just bought a fake one for $400. WTF!!! I wish I could see this before purchasing that crap!

  • dude thanks man you helped out A LOT of people

  • This video has me worried about my space jams I bought early in 2009

  • HEY I WAS WONDERIN IF U KNW ANYTHING OF SNEAKERAPE IS IT A LEGIT WEBSITE HIT ME UP ASAP

  • Last comment. If your that into BBALL and shoes, like I am, you should only purchase from legit retailers. Really anything online that us not a huge retailer is taking a chance. Especially if reviewing online. I've learned it's worth spending extra to really know. You will cost yourself more over a lifetime

  • This bullshit has to stop. WTF is cheap ass Jordan/Nike waiting for??? Chinese crime families are getting this done and making a killing! BTW, they own majority of fake sites. No I'm not kidding.

  • Maybe their the UK release...

  • Dude just F'ed the game... Salute

  • at this point idk waht to believe what is real wat is fake luckly i was blessed with patience like now people evn get foams from footlocker its self with defects lik the icy sole twisted and all dat so i feel the video is kind of pointless because people waste so much money on a pair of kicks b4 they release so they can stunt but then wen the real release comes out you look just like evryone one else so its pointless to me all these hype of early releases

  • sneakgeekz disliked this vid too..

  • if y'all got time come check out my videos. thanks

  • and the tapping of the carbon fiber come from the fact that early fakes used to use a plastic insert with the carbon fiber pattern painted on it. so people in vids tap the carbon fiber to show that its real and not the little plastic piece.

  • not to be a smart ass but genuinely curious. you show all of these differences between the two shoes, but before you got the pys pair, did you notice all this stuff that you are pointing out? if so, did you just think that maybe you got a bad pair or something, or did you suspect them to be fake back then?

  • Good Video, Keep it up. Too bad the market is flooded with trash now...kicks and even "Sneakerheads"

    IMO this the only sneaker channel worth subscribing to.

  • They aren't b-grades they're super fakes ... damn JB

  • wow thanks btw is sneaker.st legit?

  • thanks can you do the concords next really liked the video

  • The dudes from LMFAO dislike this vid :(

  • they're not fake, they're B grades

  • lol "this is limp. It needs viagra". Great video bro

  • DJ Delz disliked the vid...

  • @SkeetSkeetonYaKickz I wouldn't hate on Delz man. He's getting ripped off just like the rest of us were. He should do his own experiment to prove it to himself.

  • @young25swag ya think? or what if those companies such as VMV inc pay him to promote thier products? so they get popular and sell fakes to others...why u think hes always shouting out vmv inc? IMO

  • Learned alot from this video!! THANKS

  • I feel the pain too man as I got conned too! Add this ebay seller to the list: el-store from hong kong! The Cool Greys I bought were just like the ones you got. Fakes!

  • Yea I will admit to being had I got got from mentalkicks the materials are the same but you can tell after comparing them to a legit authentic pair learned my lesson never again will I buy from overseas sites or early release sites

  • Comment removed

  • could be the factory reselling them just to make a profit i mean they make em right but do u think nike pays them for the shoes that they think doesnt make the cutt?? no i bet nike says do what you want with em and the sale them to resellers its just they way of life it sucks but i knowwwww i WONT be buying early shoe ill stick to the old fashion way

  • i dont kno man i think if u pay above retail on SHOES THAT ARE COMING OUT!!!! ur a sucker anyway, if the shoes were released previously thats one thing.....my argument is if u didnt have the side by side comparison u wouldnt kno and the materials the same so i wouldnt call them fake their more b grades ....but its the same material so how can it be b grades i just dont kno

  • song?

  • thankkkkkkkkk you like come on people stop buying them trash early realeases like what ever happen to the hunt every one of yall know about it...its not knowing your going to get the shoe waiting in lonnng lines with that hope you get ur pairr standing in the frezzzzing cold to get ur shoee then finally its ur trun you get it thats why i ffell in love with shoess and even more so the shoe game get at my page got some good vids over there and shout out to nightwing and sneakerfiles love em

  • bro i think the xi's were just a bad case of b-grades. :/ i think the earlier you get them, the shittier the quality will be. especially with websites from overseas; that's always risky. the owners and/or resellers don't look at quality, they look at how much profit they can make.

  • @DUMBphresh612 There's a difference between B-grades and unauthorized sneakers. Believe it or not, JB does look at quality, it is a business after all. B-grades have minor defects that are visible or not visible, but still passes quality control and sold to the public for a lower price. From what I've seen, unauthorized sneakers may either be 1) "test" samples or 2) F-quality. Clearly, the Cool Greys in the video are unauthorized.

  • @t00b3a5t exactly; these resellers get their hands on the first pairs (the crappiest ones) and sell them for an arm and a leg just because of the hype around the shoe. That's why everybody was having trouble with the quality, given the fact that they got them so early.

  • @DUMBphresh612 Yep, and these hypebeasts (no offense) can't wait until release day, so they'll pay double up or even more for crappier quality. Just do it the old fashion way... wait until release day, get in line, pay retail, and you know you're getting A-grade quality.

  • @DUMBphresh612 Just look at the patent leather. Only God knows where these resellers get their hands on these unauthorized sneakers. Is that to say all unauthorized sneakers come in bad quality? No. Some people get lucky enough to land an "A-grade" unauthorized sneaker. Why people are spending their money on these? One word... HYPE.

  • Does anyone knwo if kicks crew legit, or not?

  • Yea definitely a problem if you can rip off the bottom with your bare hands haha. All about the quality.

  • we already complain about about the small flaws in all the kick that nike puts out (like the patent leather on my 25 anniversary XIs has a spot on it) and now you got these sellers trying to seel the crap quality kicks as what we would get on release date but for a rape price... thats crap

  • real nice

    

  • Very intriguing video, very well done, great details and much appreciated. I'm glad you took the time and showed people the truth about your pickup PROPS!

  • take out the air sole from the so called" authentic par" to see the diffence?

  • how did you make a 40mins video?lol

  • Everybody knows Air Randy is a fraud. The people who buy from him support fakes. Plain and simple. There's a reason he always gets shut down. I think Nike is going to put the nail in his coffin this time though. Too bad Joe..might have to switch it up to VMV now lmao

  • Stop hatin u fagets they are fake y u hatin

  • Because they r dume ass

  • how do you know if pickyourshoes kicks are real?

  • the concept car analogy make sense, and thats y this is so crazy. early production items with multiple flaws bein purchased (not SOLD) for more than retail value is crazy to me. as a consumer i dont see the logic in that at all

  • Right on I see we understand each other

  • You same people saying "fake" this, "fake" that, I wonder how many of you also shop at TJ Maxx, Ross, Marshalls, and Burlington Coat Factory? The same way they get their items, is the same as a Marqueesole, VMV Inc., Air Randy... EXCEPT, they sell it nearly for half less vs. these online sneaker sites selling them at DOUBLE their actual retail price.

    You think people like Wale, DJ Clark Kent, Chi McBride, etc. wear "fakes" because they got them early? Think people, please!

  • interestin to say the least....at the end of the day, u not gone make nobody take they shoes off so u can compare them to yours so it dont matter, thats a pretty good pair, would i get some? hell no lol....would u be able to tell the difference if u saw me with some? hell no again....only person that knows is the person that cops, if they dont care, i dont care

  • NO AM NOT A NIGGA AM A GROWN ASS MAN AND NOT IN DENIAL JUST KEEPING IT 1 HUNDRED....everybody can have an opinion.but to act like the fake JORDAN's police captain is wack! POINT BLANK PERIOD.........

  • Man what difference does it make if its real o fake at the end of the day they all made in a sweatshop in China somewhere and yall stupid ass niggas will fight and kill over a pair of damn sneakers. Jordan overcharges his own people on some sneakers. its a damn shame. I used to be a jordan head, just gotta have every jordan, but i came to the realization that this shit is not worth it. Jordans dont get you girls, respect, or even swag, so stop being so fucking materialistic.

  • It seems the new excuse to buying fakes is..... Oh nah they real they just b grades!?! There not Nike approved in any way which is why they keep hiking prices they had no idea people would buy fake stuff at such high price so they raise their prices as well and when ever they feel that half of the market is buying them at 260 and up that's when jordans will be 200 at retail price.

  • There not fakes its just an early production like a sample. You have early productions and final productions and its always been that way. Of course early versions have way too many flaws and stuff so they scrape'm and built off of them they now know how the shoe is going to be. Ppl should never buy early everything from ur box was real its just an early one. Instead of tossing like back in,the day they just sell'em

  • @hozezae29 AMEN! These people are morons! That's like calling a concept car "fake" because it differs from the actual production model. LMAO

  • @hozezae29 the problem is that they are advertising to us that we are getting something we are not. whether it fakes, b grades, or first runs, it is still not what we thought we were getting.

  • If you don't mind wearing fake ass shit, keep paying double for early release garbage. But don't knock this for pointing shit out. It shows the bitch in ya'll.

  • Lol, its funny to see the folks who bought fakes coming to the defense of these fake sights. Don't want to admit they've been had.

  • stfu n show da motherfukn shoe nigga

  • This video isn't the only one showing Shady pairs from AIR RANDY=vmvin=marquessole=sneake­rape ect ect ect. Not just defects, but CLEAR DIFFERENCES.

  • Comment removed

  • I see where this is coming from , but alot of what this guy is saying seems to be all crap. I mean production date? wow!!! my true blues from footlocker were made sometime between january and february. it did not take 3months or whatever, so does that mean they are fakes?

    I bet if you get all the cool greys that were bought from major retailers and compare them, I AM CERTAIN that they all wont be exactly the same. NOt sayng VMV is authentic, but every shoes have slight variations

  • @dcvamd1994 Funny you said that about your True Blue's Mine have the same date Jan-Feb! This guy just went on a rant and came to own conclusions, merely from a few production differences.

    A lot of it was just assumption. Every sneaker has defects.

  • Thanks for this info man! Great help!

  • too many people talking shit about other people. LEAVE A NIGGA ALONE! Live your own damn life. damn dick riders -_- fucking up the sneaker community !

  • i thought the vmv inc sold b grades

    ?

  • google sole supremacy b grades and click on food for thought read da info and see wat you think....

  • Smh Fuck Gettin It Early Its Definitely A Waste Of Time & Money Ill Wait Like Always Til The Release Date!!

  • I give a fuck, fuck b grades and fakes

  • LIKE I SAID IT DONT MATTER A B C D E FG GRADE ETC......LIKE'EM BUY'EM ROC'EM...WHO GIVES A FUCK DAMN STOP POSTING DUMB SHIT

  • sue those mothufukers foreal...and its fukin expensive too wtf

  • these are NOT B-Grades. B-Grades are sold only at Nike Outlets. These are grey area market shoes that use most materials as the authentic shoes u get on release day, but are not authorized by NIKE. In a sense you can call these C-Grades or w.e. BUT THEY ARE NOT AUTHENTIC. This topic has been gone over and over and over on Nike Talk. People, if you want an Authentic pair of sneakers before release date, BUYERS BEWARE! VMVINC, AIRRANDY, Marqueesole ect sell these exact type of FAKE shoes

  • @mspec810 How can you have "authentic materials" on sneakers, and be called "fake?" You're a dumb ass!

  • @ItsNeezy GREY MARKET SHOES ARE NOT AUTHORIZED BY NIKE and NOT made with Nikes approval, but use some of the same materials. Some of the Materials are comming from the same factories but are violating the law by making them behind Nike Back and selling them to VMVInc ECT. Hence making them FAKES! thats why they seem authentic but theres more QC problems with them. VMVINC AIR RANDY Marquessole ect get their Illegal Shipment of these GREY SHOES (fakes) from the same Source. welcome to 2011!

  • @ItsNeezy just like you can buy and iphone with plasic and then buy a bootleg iphone also made with plastic but falls apart much faster. there are both made with the same material but not with the same process or quality control.

  • ALSO WHO GIVE'S A GOOD FUCK HOW LONG YOU BEEN COLLECTING WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT MEAN????SHIT AND AS FAR AS DELZ GO STOP HATE-N ON THE BRUTHA HE HAS HIS OPINION AND YOU HAVE YOURS... LEARN HOW TO RESPECT A MANS HUSTLE AND NIKE IS ASS FUCKING ALL SNEAKER HEADS ANYWAY POINT BLANK PERIOD(NO HOMO), THEY KEEP RAISING THEIR PRICES BUT THE QUALITY KEEPS GETTING WORSE AND WHAT DO WE DO GO RUN TO THE STORES LINE UP FOR HOURS LIKE CRACKHEADS. SO STOP WASTING YOUR TIME ON THIS TOPIC DAMN HOMMIE

  • this nigga, @jayrelldog is in denial "POINT BLANK PERIOD"

  • THERE NOT FAKE DICK FACE.. THERE CALLED B GRADES IDIOT. SOME SHOES AT FOOTLOCKER SOMETIMES LOOK LIKE SHIT IVE GOTTEN PAIRS FROM PICKYOURSHOES AND HAD TO RETURN THEM DUE TO TOO MUCH GLUE ETC.YEA ITS CLEAR THAT YOUR VMV PAIR ARE B GRADE'S BUT NOT FAKE!.YOU SAID SO YOURSELF THAT THE MATERIAL IS THE SAME. THE B GRADES EARLY RELEASES ARE JUST AN ROUGH DRAFT POINT BLANK PERIOD......C'MON SON

  • Bonkers!

  • @joevenuto Says the guy who's entire collection is Air Randy specials.

  • @mxkid912 You are sadly misinformed my friend. Watch my channel and tell me the ratio of randy videos vs non-randy videos and then post that in this feed. I'll buy from Randy again too. Thanks for watching!

  • @joevenuto How will you still buy from him when he got shut down? Lmao...

  • @mxkid912 He'll be back.

  • CAN ANYONE TELL ME THE BEAT IN THE START OF THE VIDEO!!!OMG

  • Lol half of delz collection is fake. That'd y I'm patient wait till the rd

  • how about kicks-crew are they legit?

  • when i saw the comparison on the vmvics version where you said you took off the sole with your bare hands i was like what the heck. im never ever gonna get early releases. worth the wait for legit pairs to drop and alot cheaper too.

  • @NonAverageJoe It's not that hard to pull off the sole of a sneaker, if you've already started the process. He never mentioned how much or how little WORK he might've had to use in doing so either. So that too is very misleading.

    People, don't be sheep!

  • This is a great idea for a video, havent seen this comparison anywher else yet

  • great video sir. I am now a subscriber. the rest of them need exposure also... if Nike wanted them released early NIKE would release them... #Salute

  • Wow this is an eye opener

  • CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS THAT SONG IN THE INTRO OF THIS VIDEO OMG!! THAT BEAT IS SO FUCKIN DOPE!!

  • @BkaJamar The Supremes - Remove This Doubt <--- the original,

  • just cuz u buy your shoes early DONT MEAN THERE FAKE,...... the early product u get is sometimes NOT the actualy release MODEL its NOT gonna BE PERFECT AS THE ONE THAT COME OUT IN STORES thats what happens when u buy shoes early

  • question, so does that mean all the concords that was out early are also fakes, because theirs people on youtube selling concords early so are they selling fakes too? because this is some real shit, people shelling out hard earn cash on what they think is real but can be fake? smh im never buying kicks early im a wait till they drop now

  • First there were differences between fakes and authentics, and we all know that nike participates in the fake production and selling process with commissions and mold sellings.

    Now people want to see differences between 2 shoes which are from the same factory.....I think you won't never reach your goal....I bought wolf grey 5's from nike store and the quality was not perfect,.....PLEASE be sure that in this game NIKE in the ONE AND ONLY WINNER whenever you buy fakes, A-grade, or B-grades

  • @marthes89 **NIKE **is the ONE AND ONLY WINNER whenever you buy fakes, A-grade, or B-grades

  • hey night!! great video man! i love it. i ordered my playoff 13's & 6 rings from pickyourshoes and i agree their stuff is legit man! i love this video had to share this on my facebook for my other jordan heads. great, keep it up

  • i dont see the point of early releases, id rather wait unril final product is released

  • The early release pairs aren't "fakes" they come from Nike. They're majority samples (not just in the size 9). To call them "fakes" is pretty bold.

    There's a huge difference in FAKE & "B Grade." Don't mislead these people by calling them fakes.

  • Love The Details You Cover Every Aspect Of It,This Is Why I Dont Purchase Early Releases And I Know You Feel Bad But We All Make Mistakes At One Point So Dont Stress It Much,As Long As The Truth Is Out!

  • Thank you for this.

  • use karmaloop rep code Marijane for 20% off

  • wow thanks man i dont think ill ever order from vmv or air randy again why does nicekicks and sneakernews endorse these "fakes"/b-grades so much.

  • Comment removed

  • Damn that's crazy my dude.....great video espicially with the air randy site shutting down and given refunds to everybody that purchase sneakers from them recently.....Thank you for shedding some light on this issue!

  • THANK YOU for making this video--you've done a great service for the sneaker community! PROPS!

  • I want them cool greys!!!!!!

  • This was a terrific video, was long but worth the time. Good job.

    I personally think while Nike/JB stands behind the claim the kicks are "unauthorized" at the same time they benefit from it because as people (Myself included) review the kicks early it builds the hype for their product to fly off the shelf. They certainly aren't complaining about that. Again great video. -Peace

  • Wow fam! You have made some interesting points i think i am done with early sites quality against actual release pairs, im gonna do sum research on this aswell you have inspired me! lol

  • anybody kno about soleland if they are legit?? i just got some flip 3s from there not 2 long ago. they look real 2 me but then after seeing this video i dnt kno what to believe

  • Lol its funny that those were from VMVinc. I remember people who copped the RayAllen PE 13s from VMVinc were complaining about glue stains and poor/questionable quality. Hmmm.....

  • actually, i take that back. i have bought one pair of space jam "restocks" from sneakerape... and they said "Jumaman Joqdan"... luckily i sold them for what i paid.

  • this is why i don't buy early. never have, never will. Ive always been suspicious from overseas sellers, and early stuff in particular. crazy detailed vid. good looking out.

  • they are GOOD fakes, damn probs the best ive ever seen tbh

  • If anyone buys restocks or early releases from that guy on YouTube Fraydog313 you can add him to the list of selling fake shoes like this..

  • I told Delz that early releases sometimes have flaws he got all defensive and said make a video and prove it. I made a video and showed him my air Randy black cements I tried to comment his page turns out he blocked SMH he's a lame for real he need to stick to being a wack DJ

  • @chicagojoe12 of course he did, how funny would it be if he had to make a video saying all the shoe he got early are pretty much fake, no one would watch his channel and he would bel looked at as a joke. Instead of just manning up about it and just telling the truth, he's going to deny as long as possible.

  • @chicagojoe12 delz is a punk i pointed out some fake kicks he had and he got all pissed talking about i photoshoped it.

  • THANNKS for the Video & info homie

  • pick your shoes sells FAKES

  • @13laZe9 no its dosnt, i have ordered 5+ plus of jordans and they are ALL 100% real, also with the nike sb blazers i have purchased

  • @basketballjones515 Small complaints about their shoes? Are you kidding me when someone on iss doesn't even have upper lace holes punched in on their black cements bought from eastbay. My black cements had patches of white on the leather with visible glue stains all over the cement print bought from ndc. Its a hit or miss either way go look at other youtube vids some got great pairs some didn't.

  • great vid doe

  • there probably not fake but jus samples that dey gt n r sellin #justsayn

  • Fantastic video. Thanks.

  • "If your expecting perfection from nike or jordan brand your an idiot"

    anonymous sneakrhead

  • @xxraverxxonxtacy "It's not about perfection-it's about AUTHENTICITY. You're the idiot." anonymous sneakerhead

  • Great comparison but try comparing cool greys or any shoe from all major retail stores and you will still see a difference. Lots of people on nt and iss complaining about their black cements being b-grade with flaws that were purchased from major retailers. It is a hit or miss for early release sites and authorized retailers.

  • @xxraverxxonxtacy It's not a hit or miss for early release sites. The fact that the boxes were different, the fact that he could rip off the soles with his bare hands, and the fact that the air soles had NO AIR from VMV clearly explains why we should NOT buy from early sites. The people complaining about their shoes from authorized retailers are small compared to what this video shows.

  • Any word on SoleLand.com?

  • 40 min? you're buggin

  • wow the iphone camera did a great job

  • damn, now I want to look at some of my sneakers, Thank you so much for that! great review, you always come with the details

  • nice review =]]

  • hmmm....

  • @13:07, that made my jaw drop

  • yo thanx for this vid bro ......... ive never gotten n early pair but now i no not to no matter how real they look im stickin wit footlocker n nike.com

  • Damn great video always wanted to buy early but fuck that thank u for a great video

  • "This thing is limp. It needs Viagra." lol!

  • anyone ever order from marquesole?

  • That's the reason I wait for the general.

  • can i have them? they fit me :)

  • That's crazy what you were able to do with the midsole! That sucks what went down with vmcinc. It's worse because cats pay these inflated prices to get them early.

  • Comment removed

  • Excellent video, great info! So vmvinc is fake?

  • so vmvinc sells fake ?

  • @GeneralGHustler he says they might just be b-grades but most likeyly there not technically "real"

  • @JordanKixTV LOL im worried now I have so 13's from vmvinc

  • @GeneralGHustler yea if theyre fakes vmvinc should be shutdown for fraud, like $2-300 for a fake shoe?? thats suck a fuckin ripoff lol

  • @JordanKixTV people like DJ delz and others buy from them too so i dunno what to think now DJ delz has videos saying he got his shoes from VMVinc
