Air Jordan 11 Retro Low Cherry Varsity Red 2016: Should You Buy Them Early?
Feb 20, 2025
Air Jordan 11 Retro Low Varsity 2016: Should You Buy Them Early? The Air Jordan 11 Retro low cherry varsity red are set to release on June 4th, 2016 but even two months prior to its official release date, some online websites that claim to have connections will be carrying them.The question is? Where exactly are they getting these shoes from and should anyone be buying them this early? My answer to the question is absolutely Not. no one should buy these Air Jordan 11 retro low cherry this early; most retailers such as finishline,footlocker or champs probably will not get these in their inventory two weeks prior to the official release date. Hence any website selling them now ( unless advertised as Preorder) is probably carrying fakes. The video above shows you exactly what these fake Air jordan 11 retro low cherry are like from the box to the inside production label. for more info refer to www.housakicks.com

hello guys U this is T from House of
0:03
kicks and I wanted to talk about
0:06
something different today again it's the
0:08
whole thing with uh early shoes and and
0:11
all that kind of stuff listen before I
0:13
even get into it now there's people out
0:15
there that are getting mad at me when I
0:17
show uh shoes like this they get all
0:20
banned out of Shipe and they call me
0:21
names and all that uh you know what I
0:24
want to tell you guys listen I'm not
0:26
trying
0:27
to knock your business or anything so if
0:30
you want to sell fake shoes you go ahead
0:32
and you do your thing all right so this
0:34
whole thing is just for me to just show
0:36
people what not to buy and if they do
0:39
want to buy fake shoes don't get ripped
0:41
off all right because you guys are
0:42
buying this for too low and selling them
0:45
for way too high and you know you you
0:47
you you you going out there busting head
0:49
so please understand my goal and I'm not
0:51
trying to start any kind of beef that's
0:54
not what I'm doing so please be patient
0:57
and and listen to what I'm saying and
0:59
listen to the message mess you know
1:01
that's all I'm saying all right so why
1:03
am I doing this this is for prevention
1:05
so before you buy any shoes do your
1:08
homework know what you're doing and
1:10
don't waste your time you know spending
1:13
all this money and then you find out two
1:14
weeks down the line that the shoes are
1:16
fake all right and I want to save you
1:18
money so that's the reason why I'm doing
1:20
this thing prevention all right so now
1:22
today we talking about the Air Jordan 11
1:23
Low vity these issues come out in June
1:27
uh to be more precise June 4 4
1:31
2016 so should you buy this shoe early
1:34
should you my immediate answer is no do
1:37
not because half of the time the
1:40
retailers like Finish Line Foot Locker
1:42
Foot Action or whatever store they
1:44
probably won't get their stock into like
1:46
two weeks before the shoe come out so
1:48
anything that you find on eBay or kixify
1:50
or any other website now is probably
1:53
fake and this is exactly where they
1:55
getting it from they getting it from
1:57
probably Tau or all these other
1:59
Instagram sellers
2:01
so I'll say wait two weeks ahead and I
2:03
wanted to show you uh some of the shoes
2:06
that I found and what they are selling
2:07
for now and why you shouldn't buy them
2:11
now okay so first of all we don't even
2:14
have official pictures of the shoes yet
2:16
you've seen some on snaker news or
2:18
snaker Bar Detroit or any other place
2:21
doesn't mean that that's the whole
2:23
that's the what the shoes going to look
2:24
like so you need to wait and be patient
2:26
but you not patient you just want to get
2:28
them early and that's that's how you get
2:30
burned so the one thing you want to look
2:32
at usually is the Box you know
2:34
especially for 11s the to box and and
2:38
the carbon fiber inside labels and
2:40
that's how you prevent yourself from
2:41
buying fakes so now you you remember
2:43
what happened with the Concord right
2:45
they came out with a clear toe box and
2:46
then we found out later on it was a
2:48
Milky toebox so that's the only reason
2:50
why I'm doing this this morning so I
2:52
found a couple of sellers that I selling
2:54
these and I want to show you what these
2:56
sh look like so if you see those on eBay
2:58
or any place you know not to spend your
3:00
money you hard earn dollars on it so
3:02
first of all these are like 630 Chinese
3:04
yen which is about maybe roughly 8090
3:09
okay so someone's gonna buy it for 90
3:11
and probably sell it to you for like 250
3:13
and you're thinking you're getting a h
3:14
of a deal but you're getting a fake shoe
3:16
all right so let's see what it looks
3:18
like this is it here comes our pent
3:21
letter red it's a clear toebox so we
3:23
don't know this is what the the official
3:25
Sho is going to be like so that's why
3:27
I'm saying don't spend your money early
3:29
okay I'm showing you pictures here so
3:31
you
3:33
see uh Buton
3:35
letter Clear Toe box mesh everything
3:40
looks good from here right it looks good
3:43
The Jump Man in the back so you don't
3:44
even have any [ __ ] to compare it to so
3:46
when you see this online you're thinking
3:48
this is official this is
3:50
legit the Box even looks good
3:56
look so the one thing I want to show you
4:00
is the now the carbon fiber looks kind
4:03
of shady here you can't really see but
4:05
the release the the production date all
4:08
right so this was
4:09
produced in December of
4:12
2015
4:14
and between the December and and
4:16
February and the shoe doesn't drop to
4:18
like June so I wouldn't be messing with
4:20
it if I see anyone with that kind of
4:22
date on it and the factory number is ln4
4:25
that's where it was produced now I don't
4:26
know if that's a real Nike Factory or
4:28
they just put that there but if if I see
4:30
anyone on eBay selling these shoes or
4:31
any other website and he has this data
4:34
on it I wouldn't mess with it simple as
4:36
that all right you don't have the
4:38
official shoes so you don't know what
4:39
you're getting now let's let's look at
4:41
another
4:43
one and you can see they all have the
4:45
same
4:47
characteristics look at this here again
4:50
same thing it looks good from the from
4:52
from pictures it looks fine you know the
4:55
Box UPC code and everything clear to box
4:58
this is the St code 528 89512 they even
5:02
have now um the retail is 170 I don't
5:04
know if that's the price I think it's
5:06
160 so that might be another thing that
5:08
you might want to look at all right and
5:10
they you can actually tear that thing up
5:12
too so they they they getting better I'm
5:15
not I'm not going to say no they getting
5:16
definitely better the shoes look good
5:19
now if you look at here where my mouth
5:21
is
5:22
squinting it's a little rough you know
5:25
even you know look at the bottom the the
5:27
the mid so here all right the all sold
5:29
see it's kind of rough it's not really
5:31
the edges aren't really like neat so
5:33
those are things that you need to look
5:34
at and these shoes are like $500 for500
5:38
um$ 500 yen which is about 90 to $100 US
5:42
dollars so someone's gonna buy this and
5:44
sell it to you for maybe 300 so you
5:48
might as well just get it yourself
5:51
look so let's look at it again and then
5:54
let's look at the
5:57
date all right now that's
6:00
inso so there's nothing really to
6:02
compare it to so you can't you can't buy
6:04
this early you got to wait you don't
6:06
know and again the date is the same you
6:08
see 12 15 175 between that and then
6:13
February so if I see anyone my first
6:16
question is I want to see the inside
6:18
label and if it looks like this I'm
6:19
staying away from it okay so that's
6:22
those are the tips and look at the
6:23
stitching here I don't know I don't know
6:26
what the official shoe looks like so I'm
6:27
not GNA say this is bad but it looks
6:29
pretty loose to me that's bad stitching
6:32
look at it all right and the carbon
6:36
fiber looks weird look you don't really
6:38
see the the the round circle just it's
6:41
just not not good
6:43
enough again wait till the shoe drop so
6:46
you can actually make a better
6:48
comparison we don't know if the the the
6:50
uh the toe box is going to be milky we
6:52
don't know none of that so don't waste
6:54
your money and I'm going to look at
6:56
another one and that's it for today all
6:59
right I'm going to look at one more
7:01
that's the box here again 170 that's
7:04
what it says on retail now usually if
7:07
you go here there's usually this Nike
7:10
sticker here they don't have that on the
7:11
back so if I see that that's another red
7:13
flag okay now look at here the the
7:15
inside of the shoe stitching is pretty
7:17
bad all right and usually sometime
7:19
there's a stamping in here they don't
7:21
have that so that's another
7:23
thing now look they even have the
7:26
quality control sticker so they getting
7:27
better box looks fun
7:30
but these are fake so I wouldn't mess
7:32
with it 400 Yen which is about $70 80
7:36
you don't want to buy this for 300 and
7:38
then when the shoe drop you look at
7:40
yours and you look at what what finish
7:42
line or Foot Locker is selling you get
7:43
mad so that's that's all I'm saying but
7:45
if you if you're okay with buying fix
7:47
that's on you you know that's all I'm
7:50
saying all right so that's all and let's
7:54
look at the inside label all right
7:57
inside label here um um again the carbon
8:01
fiber looks off here look this is a
8:03
different one this is kind of squarey
8:04
looking doesn't even look like it looks
8:06
like it's paining on I don't like
8:09
that um let's look at the inside
8:14
label and usually sometime the pods are
8:16
off you know so those are the things but
8:19
again we don't have the official shoe so
8:21
we can't really say anything and again
8:23
three different shoes look at the
8:24
stitching here thread is weird all right
8:27
so three different shoes three different
8:29
different things we seen but again the
8:32
inside label says the same thing between
8:35
December and February and Factory number
8:37
is len4 so that's what I'll be looking
8:40
at if I if I see this online I'll ask
8:42
them for this this picture show me the
8:44
inside label and if it fits what you see
8:46
on the screen don't mess with it all
8:48
right thanks for watching that's all I'm
8:50
going to say today again why am I doing
8:52
this prevention don't waste your money
8:55
wait till the shoe drop or wait at least
8:57
two weeks before you make that purchase
8:59
thanks for watching this is as K stay
