20 views
Feb 20, 2025
Coming out on Saturday May 27 are the Air Jordan 11 low barons; they were inspired by the Birmingham Barons, a minor league baseball team MJ played with during his premature retirement. They come in a black nubuck upper with ash grey patent leather overlays on the toe box and panels. Fakes have been on the market for quite some time now but I was waiting for legitimate images prior to doing a comparison; here is how to spot the replicas:

0:02
Arthur kicks again and I got a quick um
0:06

0:09

0:11
like man you know what let me just do it
0:12
today
0:12
all right now the Jordan 11 lower
0:14
parents finally coming out on Saturday
0:17
May 27th and they got cause like I think
0:20
170 175 and to be honest I don't think
0:24
they're gonna sell out so low tops I've
0:26
been kind of doing not too good so you
0:28
should just hold off on buying them for
0:30
more than retail and try to look on
0:33
Saturday right but before I get into the
0:37
the comparison I just want to quickly
0:39
tell you um if you have any questions
0:41
don't hesitate just send me an email and
0:43
I'll be more than glad to help you
0:46
alright
0:46
I so let's get into it quickly now when
0:50
you look at both shoes um I've what I've
0:52
noticed is if you look at the lace holes
0:54
are nylon extensions there's like this
0:57
stitching here is like adjacent to the
1:00
like extension right but if you look at
1:02
the fake ones you get kind of see that
1:04
it's not it's not just into it it's like
1:06
a quarter of an inch away from it I'll
1:07
zoom in real quick so you can see you
1:09
see look at that you can stitch him here
1:11
you see right it's kind of a little bit
1:14
too far off alright and I'll show you
1:17
another one I took two pictures or two
1:19
different figs and again same thing here
1:22
this is better actually you see the
1:24
stitching here look up like it's like a
1:26
quarter of an inch away from from the
1:28
extension and if you look at the
1:30
authentic one you see is adjacent to it
1:32
like right on it it lays right on it and
1:34
also notice that ah both pictures were
1:36
taken were took like we're taking um
1:38
outside so this kind of felt like it was
1:41
a little too dark on the authentic and
1:42
the fake one it's kind of like it looks
1:46
a little purple I don't know if you
1:47
notice it that's what I saw so I just
1:49
wanted to point that out as well now let
1:51
me get to the next slide here now the
1:53
next thing I wanted to show you was the
1:55
back they always kind of messed this up
1:57
she should leave your tellings on my
1:59
left here and they're the fake ones on
2:01
my way now if you look at a cut right
2:03
look let me zoom in a little bit I you
2:06
know let me let me kind of zoom
2:09
Chillicothe is its high on the authentic
2:11
and very low on their fake one so if you
2:14
get a jump and it did not look the same
2:16
and if you look at 8:23 on the back top
2:18
it covers pretty much an entire time
2:21
right on the authentic on the fake one
2:23
you see that space here it's kind of
2:24
like halfway halfway there and I think
2:27
the fabric is not the same it feels like
2:29
there's a lot of lines in it and here's
2:30
like there's no lines I don't see any
2:32
lines on it it's like kind of plain I'll
2:35
show you another slide another perfect
2:36
that I saw as well all right now in this
2:38
fix here is their complete opposite the
2:41
cut is too high but if you look at the
2:45
depth here it's like kind of steep on
2:47
the authentic you see and the Jumpman is
2:49
right in the middle that space between a
2:51
jump main and the top same thing here
2:53
which is look at the legs of a jump -
2:55
like space and if he hears like really
2:56
steep and a fake one it's kind of too
2:59
high here that's another fact that I saw
3:01
and the joke man is pretty much he
3:03
doesn't look the same ain't he's pretty
3:05
much I just said to the edge all right
3:09
again the 23 doesn't go all the way down
3:11
and the jump man certainly doesn't look
3:13
the same it really looks kind of bad all
3:15
right next slide I wanted to show you on
3:19
this I'll give you a better picture of
3:21
this here you see if you zoom in you can
3:23
kind of see look cut this too low here
3:25
look at a cut here see that you can see
3:28
the cut right defenses in the cut and
3:29
the 23 as well last slides gonna be the
3:33
most telling which is the that's if you
3:37
don't want to waste time looking at all
3:38
these other things the one thing you
3:39
wanna look at is that the outsole right
3:41
if you look it's like semi translucent
3:43
so you can kind of see the jump man on
3:45
the freight on the authentic but you
3:47
still like to like visible like it's
3:50
kind of come flight right there if you
3:52
look under the fake one you can clearly
3:54
see that the jump man so this is not
3:57
very translucent it's like not even
3:59
translate we like is it's like it's
4:02
see-through good pretty much all right I
4:04
don't know if I chose my words right but
4:05
you can see through it and the joke man
4:07
certainly is like - visible on the fake
4:09
ones and I also notice that the carbon
4:11
fibers a little more there's some kind
4:13
of differences here
4:14
but I don't want that that's all I saw
4:16
didn't provided back so I could we take
4:18
a picture of the label so I just start
4:20
to I kind of
4:22
let me show you a better picture to jump
4:24
in and see the jump on your fake ones I
4:25
look at the authentic one you see this
4:28
is like really you can see everything
4:29
here here it's kind of hitting a little
4:32
bit I well like I say if you wanna let
4:36
