Fake Air Jordan 12 Michigan Spotted-Quick Ways To Spot It
4 views
Feb 20, 2025
I shared a post a few days ago concerning the new batch fakes bootleggers are introducing in the market, the ones that bear the StockX authentication card. Well the fake air jrodan 12 michigan you see in the comparison below is one of those. It’s getting harder and harder to identify fakes and I’m afraid in a couple of years unless brands come up with a new technology to separate their shoes from the grey market pairs, it’ll be impossible to tell a fake from a real pair. Anyway for today’s comparison both shoes ( authentic and fake ) are size 8.5. Subscribe to Housakicks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZPK... Visit Housakicks: https://www.housakicks.com

they were surprised dismissed ID from
0:04
Arthur kicks and I have another video
0:07
for you today now I'm basically um I
0:11
actually work an articled um I guess
0:14
from Tuesday if I'm not mistaken and
0:16
he's entitled Stark axe has a serious
0:19
problem with fake tags to address so
0:22
basically what I was talking about my
0:25
dogs barking in the background so
0:28
basically what I was talking about is
0:29
this like I've seen like a new batch of
0:31
fakes and they've been around for a
0:33
while and they come like with a stark
0:35
axe authentication card and I actually
0:38
wrote about it I'm not gonna talk about
0:40
that today but if you wanna read on it
0:43
just go on the website how sick is calm
0:46
and I wrote like something a little bit
0:48
extensive about it alright so let's
0:51
stick to the topic at hand so basically
0:53
the Michigan 12 fake ones are on the
0:57
market and I'm just trying to show you
0:59
quick ways to identify them now on this
1:02
slide below what I used was a size eight
1:05
and a half so here's a size eight and a
1:07
half so please be mindful of this when
1:10
you watch the show because I hate for
1:12
people to just send me questions saying
1:15
well mine is a size 12 and he has this
1:17
is the size in and half this is just a
1:19
guideline for size eight and half where
1:21
you use the same method to try to cross
1:24
check your own pair alright so basically
1:26
what you want to zero in the first is
1:29
this tab on the on the side here see the
1:31
plastic tab the yellow plastic tab on
1:34
the authentic he extends further down
1:36
see this is the midsole and he it goes
1:38
all the way down here on the fifth one
1:40
is kind of adjacent to the edge of the
1:42
midsole you see the difference here now
1:44
to show you that this wasn't just like
1:46
an isolated I think I did another
1:50
picture from another authentic and again
1:53
this verifies my observation she extends
1:56
down when a fake when he stops right
1:58
here you can always go back on the
2:01
website and then double check this now
2:04
the next thing is the placement of the
2:05
holes now both - these shoes are size
2:08
eight and a half so I'm thinking okay
2:10
well you know that could be problem that
2:12
no discrepancies here but look the hole
2:14
on the authentic player sits right below
2:17
that baked see the liner here he sits
2:19
right below it and the authentic only
2:21
fake pair is like an inch away this is
2:23
the bench so it should be right here
2:24
and I felt like there this yellow eyelet
2:28
is kind of too close to the edge of the
2:31
liner see this
2:32
she doesn't baby look at the gap here
2:34
and look at the cap une placement of
2:35
this whole thing is kind of off you can
2:37
always go back and check it all right
2:39
again I looked at I'd look at a
2:41
different angle I turned it the shoe
2:43
side way and see this is the hole here
2:45
this is the placement of the hole and
2:47
look where the hole is on the other side
2:49
this is the fake one this is the
2:51
authentic well right so the placement of
2:53
the hole is definitely off it's supposed
2:55
to be right below that Bank and I'm here
2:57
on the fake when it's placed like right
2:58
over here again these are size it in
3:00
half now the best things that I have one
3:04
of the things that I've also notice is
3:05
this like if you look I have two
3:07
authentic pairs on the left and a right
3:09
you see they have like secant of red
3:11
line here that means there's an
3:13
inclination on the authentic place he
3:15
goes up and a fake one it's kind of flat
3:17
you see how flat this is here it's
3:19
really flat so that I mean the shoe
3:21
there's only some kind of funny
3:23
cognition is kind of flat and not not
3:25
obvious at all
3:26
and again the tire on the authentic on
3:29
the fake one it's kind of too long you
3:31
see on the under authentic pair this is
3:33
how further it extends on the fake when
3:36
he goes way up here which again verifies
3:40
my observation here about the the table
3:43
itself and x2 the shoes and inclination
3:46
again this is the authentic this is the
3:48
authentic you see that they both look
3:49
the same this is kind of off here
3:51
alright now let's go down then let's
3:55
look at this is the the best thing that
3:57
I've seen and this in this one was the
3:58
UPC they completely messed up the UPC
4:01
the label here looks off the print is
4:04
just off it's not the same font all
4:06
right and the print here the UPC reads
4:09
on the fake one the two the last two
4:12
digits is 9 4 on the authentic is 85
4:15
these are both sides 8 and a half so
4:16
this you have the same UPC code alright
4:19
and the authentic wear has a different
4:21
production date now that means nothing
4:22
so I'm not gonna see really not
4:24
but you can just tell by just looking on
4:26
the labels that they are totally
4:27
different right again this is a picture
4:29
of the box
4:30
she is a UPC code of the authentic this
4:32
is the UPC code of the fake one and
4:34
they're both supposed to be eight and a
4:36
half if you have the same UPC this is
4:38
universal all right again I added some
4:41
more pictures and this is all I have for
4:42
you guys now you can use these
4:44
guidelines to check your own pair all
4:46
right this is not exhaustive so I'm just
4:48
showing you quick ways to identify there
4:50
all right so it's always the first thing
4:52
you want to look at again is always zero
4:54
in on the back here see that inclination
4:55
and the holes and the placement and this
4:59
is just to sum it up so if you want
5:01
authentic player provided you with like
5:03
places where you can buy them obviously
5:05
stock X is not gonna sell you a fake one
5:06
and then some eBay sellers that have a
5:10
trust so you can go on there buy it
5:12
alright so for the other article you can
5:14
always go back and read this it's an
5:16
extensive article I wrote here today so
5:18
you can read on it and then and then
5:19

5:21
