Fake Air Jordan 12 OVO Spotted: Quick Tips To Avoid them
5 views
Feb 20, 2025
The Air Jordan 12 OVO are finally going to release on Saturday October 1 in limited quantities. The shoes were birthed out of a collaboration between Drake and Jordan Brand; they are dressed in a light bone color scheme with gold accents. Months before they dropped, there were early fake pairs being auctioned on the infamous ebay; well I went ahead and gathered up a few pictures of the Fake Air Jordan 12 OVO and did a quick comparison with an authentic pair. It is a little hard to do these comparisons when the actual shoes aren’t on hand so all additional help are welcome.

what's up this is T from house kicks.com
0:02
and again uh we all know tomorrow the L
0:07
Jord on 12 oio OVO is coming out um it
0:11
was birthed out of a collaboration
0:13
between Drake and Jordan brain I'm not
0:16
too fond of him but you know what I'm
0:18
saying like he got his own follower so
0:20
it's all good but that's not the point
0:22
the point is um before you buy those
0:24
online on eBay or any website make sure
0:27
you know that they authentic all right
0:29
so I went ahead and found a couple of
0:30
pictures of fake ones and real p uh and
0:33
real shoes and I wanted to show you real
0:36
quick what they are before you you go
0:39
ahead and pull that trigger okay now
0:41
there's like two types of fix there's
0:43
the real bad fix and there's the good
0:45
fix all right so on my left here we got
0:48
your authentic and on my my right you
0:51
got your bad fake and and I want to show
0:55
you real quick if you look at a yellow
0:57
arrow pointing down here see the incline
0:59
on the back how pronounced it is on the
1:02
authentic on the fake one you don't
1:04
really see it here it's not that the the
1:07
the angle is not that like the GD of the
1:09
angle is is a lot less than this one
1:11
here if you look at the M guard on the
1:14
side where my the little circle is it's
1:17
a lot more darker on the bad fakes and
1:20
the authentic it's a lot lighter all
1:23
right and one thing I want to point out
1:25
too is usually when you look at this the
1:27
fake shoes the tumble leather tends to
1:29
be be more pronounced you see the
1:30
wrinkles a little more and you can see
1:33
the shapes a little more on the on the
1:35
authentic is it's more subtle let's jump
1:38
on to the next one now the texture of
1:41
the bumps on The Mod guard this is the
1:43
top one is the authentic it's 3D you can
1:46
see that there's actual bumps here
1:48
they're like 3D and the fake one it
1:50
almost looks like they're not 3D and
1:53
it's a lot more bumps on it there's more
1:55
bumps they're not 3D and they are darker
1:58
you see that this is lighter this is a
2:00
lot darker
2:01
here now if you look at the next set of
2:04
picture pictures what you see is that
2:07
they've try to fix it they went ahead
2:09
and fixed it they still trying to make
2:11
it look lighter you see how close these
2:13
two are here this is the authentic and
2:15
this is the fake one now if you look at
2:17
the toe boox the cut here is a lot
2:20
longer than here I don't think it has
2:22
anything to do with the size cuz if you
2:24
look at the gap between the top and the
2:25
mid sole the Gap is a lot smaller on the
2:28
authentic and the fake one is it's a lot
2:30
bigger some people might say t come on
2:32
you looking too much into it but it's
2:34
something that I noticed I got to talk
2:36
about it all right now if you look at uh
2:39
the gold tab on the M guard here you see
2:42
where he ends see where my Black Arrow
2:44
is here it's lined up properly with a
2:47
with a mids sole on on the fake one it
2:49
tends to be a little more it comes out a
2:51
little further it doesn't it doesn't
2:53
line up properly those are little things
2:55
that you you need to look at all right
2:56
not that I care I'm just showing you so
2:58
you don't waste your money okay now if
3:00
you look at the out Soo the threads and
3:03
the tracks you see how like subtle they
3:05
are on the authentic on the fake one you
3:07
can see you can clear clearly see that
3:09
they are apparent you can kind of see
3:10
how deep they are here all right you see
3:13
this this is really close and even the M
3:16
guard now it's funny cuz it tends to be
3:18
a little more darker on authentic and
3:20
the fake one it's a lot lighter this is
3:22
really hard to tell man maybe uh the
3:25
shape here as well you see this is the
3:28
gap here is a little bit smaller now I
3:29
just saw that doesn't mean um it might
3:33
be something again the tumble leather on
3:35
the on the on the authentic is is more
3:37
subtle if you see on the fake one you
3:39
can see it's more apparent all right and
3:41
again I show you where the I put a line
3:43
here to show you where the the back top
3:46
the gold TP on the M guard you see how
3:48
lines up how it lines up with a with the
3:50
Mido now here it comes out a little bit
3:52
further you can see the ending here so
3:54
little things that you you can kind of
3:55
notice all right the next set of picture
3:58
now this is the the out Soo if you see
4:01
the carbon fiber here on the authentic
4:03
it's gray and black and here is gray and
4:06
is black and yellow now that is just a
4:08
bad fake you can tell right off the B
4:10
it's a bad fake and you look at the outo
4:13
here you see how you can see how gold it
4:15
is it's a it's it's a lot darker it's a
4:17
lighter here everything is just
4:19
different and sometimes you may also pay
4:21
attention to the eyelids you see they're
4:25
not like gold they're more like yellowy
4:27
kind of all right now let's look at next
4:29
next set of picture now this is the
4:31
authentic on the top fake on the bottom
4:33
look at the carbon fiber There's no
4:35
distinction really between the the gray
4:37
and the black here it's kind of it
4:39
Blends in and here it's really a you can
4:42
see the the shapes of the the zigzag
4:45
here you can see the shapes here it's
4:47
it's kind of like it just Blends a
4:49
little blurry that's the fake one and
4:51
again the the oval brending on the
4:54
authentic you see here it's a lot darker
4:57
on the on the authentic on the fake one
4:59
is it's it kind of is pale light and
5:01
kind of is almost
5:03
disappearing so what I went ahead and
5:05
did was I went ahead and found some
5:07
pictures of the fake one this is here
5:09
this is the let me show you for the the
5:12
bad fake this is the bad fake here let's
5:14
look at it all right B good
5:18
attention uh this is it here B you see
5:20
the incline on the back that I was
5:21
talking about and you see how the tumble
5:24
leather is really apparent and then on
5:26
the top here you can see the lining is
5:27
kind of messed up a little bit okay and
5:30
you see the bumps here you don't really
5:31
see the bumps there a lot more bumps and
5:33
they don't they don't look 3D to me and
5:35
you see the gold top how it comes out
5:38
it's not lined up properly with the mid
5:40
soole okay this the b f here you see the
5:43
carbon fiber yellow and black this is a
5:46
bad fix so we're not going to waste too
5:47
much time on it you already know if you
5:49
see anybody selling them with a black
5:51
black and gold black and yellow carbon
5:53
fiber don't waste your time just tell
5:55
them I don't want it see here the the
5:58
lining on the tongue how it is here okay
6:02
now we're not going to waste too much
6:03
time on that let's go on the good fake
6:05
here this the Good fake okay good fake
6:09
you see the carbon fiber you see how
6:12
it's you don't really see the difference
6:13
between the it's not distinct all right
6:15
and again the oval branding is a lot
6:17
lighter here see the the bumps you don't
6:21
really see the bumps in here the bumps
6:23
are actually not even existent that much
6:25
and it's too light okay and the tumble
6:28
leather is more it's it's more
6:30
apparent all right and see again this
6:33
this tab here doesn't line up properly
6:35
those are little things that you need to
6:36
look at I'm not saying see I'm not
6:38
trying to you want to buy it just go
6:40
ahead and do it man they are
6:41
728 uh Chinese yen which is I'll say
6:44
right about maybe $10 $120 and he's
6:47
going to sell it to you for 500 bucks
6:50
you want to lose your money like that go
6:51
ahead okay and it's another website here
6:55
you see it tells you final version and
6:58
you see how you spell final f i n e l so
7:01
they fixed it and they're trying to sell
7:03
it to you now it's a good thing to
7:06
always look at U the date so you know if
7:08
somebody's selling it with that kind of
7:09
date not that he matters that much but
7:11
it's always good if you see someone
7:13
selling it and he has that date on it
7:15
let me look at a date then don't don't
7:17
pull the trigger see this date pay good
7:20
attention pay attention here see if you
7:22
