Thanks for confirming the watermark is normal. Mine have the same stains. Great review, focused in actual things instead of saying “doesn’t feel right” about everything like most other reviewers.
The UK releases do not have those little round black and white size stickers in each shoe, in stead we get that white oblong sticker in one shoe footbed. Also like the Travis Scotts the tongue tag has on the inside section that little fold up at the bottom with a code written on the fold facing in towards the tongue lining
Oh so watermarks are good? i got my mochas straight from snkrs app and under a black light it has some watermarks lol just was curious about it! thanks for the vid
@Isaac Guzman saying that both are made in china doesn’t mean anything. Plenty of things are made in china. Not all nike or jordan shoes are made in china .
I gave up legit checking on the mochas. I paid resell for them. I mean the suede is good, hour glass shaped at the back bla bla bla.. but the shoe tree doesn’t say “die-cut sockliner” and the box seems off. To top it off, check check app didn’t gave it a pass. Smh Edit: I blacklight checked on my pairs too. Similar to the video 14:10 the leather on the medial side has a different tone than the midsole.
me too. my shoe tree doesn't say "die-cut sockliner" and the box too seems off.. I paid resell. imma bit teary eyes right now. might thinking other resellers sell fakes too :(
Been watching you for a long time, and enjoy the videos. But, I must say that I think most of the time it's all a mind game to get more money out of the consumers pocket , while they double down on "Retail/Real" pairs and small kickbacks on allowing the side sales. These Horrible Fire Red 4s I received 2 days ago directly from SNKRS (these look worse than plug QC pics I've gotten)and the fact that mine as well as others pairs appearing to be made in 2 different factories (left/right) further my belief that all pairs are gonna be different cause they are trying to keep up with demand, therefore outsourcing to multiple plants and know they can put out anything and people will Gobble them up as long as they are believed to come from an American source, ie. Footlocker, Goat, Stock X. I've also noticed the boxes (Wich people love to point out) have been coming just as beat and Ashy as the UAs. I understand your purpose is to keep people from getting scammed, but I think most of the time because of quality issues and Post-Bot pricing you already are. All that being said I do appreciate the time and effort you put in bro 👍🏽💪🏽.
@@JacobMarcellus i saw it i the euro snkrs release...I’m searching for somewhere to ship to the use...I’d gladly pay 35 shipping at this point 😂.....2019y energy was waaaaaay different
One thing even the best UAs haven't gotten right is the hourglass shape. The collars of the authentics flare out much more (unlaced) which is a dead giveaway, if nothing else. The UA pair looks like it used leftover materials from their Travis Scott UAs. It's the exact color and feel of them, too. 😄
I don know if you ever saw the reason behind why micheal jordan went into the business or if the video ever aired again but let me just tell you this is just a way of not forgetting what happened
Bro my mocha once passed all the test, but I’ve been seeing some people saying that the legit pairs have diagonal lines on the back of the insole as opposed to straight lines. Mine are straight lines like yours.
My midsole doesn’t glow but it has watermarks and everything else checks out the guy I bought it from got it from Snkrs showed me his app and email does it still mean mines are fake
Yo man! Thanks for the awesome video. Could you do me a favor bro? Could you blacklight the toebox of both (replica and legit) shoes to see if the shoe box lights up? I wonder, because mine won’t. Let me know!
just got. a pair from goat , date on the shoe states 5/12/20 - 6/17/20 on foot they look great but super stiff around where the shoe tongue connects with the front part of the shoe what are your thoughts i have 3 days to ship these back to goat. Lastly soles on mine don't glow like your real pair but Goat is insisting these are real ( what a headache )
So I'm a little confused about the water marks on the sole. Does residue/water marks = bad? Because apparently it's a common thing on both UA's and legit pairs? So whats the point of the black light?
Residue is completely different from watermarks . Residue is just for qc purposes , the eater mark is good for legit checking. The video clearly showed what the black light is used for.
@@JacobMarcellus how can you tell the difference between a residue and watermark though? It all just looks like smudges to me. Not trying to be a troll, I’m legitimately curious
@@JohnnyBorja86 I called the marks smudges as well until I learned they were watermarks . There’s pretty much nothing else to explain. This stuff is elementary . It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to have two shoes and point out the differences between them.
@@yeezymaster3509 what are water marks exactly? My pair has a few as well. My wings logo is also pretty fucked up and misplaced but everything else checks out about them.
hey bro i had a quick question on my pair, i got these on champs on line have the receipt via email and i was doing the black light just for fun but one thing kinda concerned me, i lit up the tongue wit the black light and in some parts of the tongue it had little lines they were in the outer line of the tongue but it wasn’t much and it wasn’t noticeable. the sole glows and has water marks, got these legit checked on the checkcheck app 2x just to see maybe champs switched out my pair but no they passed both times, the smell is good everything is good i’m just a little concerned about the little lines on the outer tongue. do you think that’s a flaw or practically a ua?
No Shoes are WORTH resell, especially if you gonna actually wear them. That being said , almost all shoes held long enough will have Value if you don't wear them, because people want what they don't or can't have.
Wow, got a pair from stock x and they are looking way more like the fakes, toe of the shoe has the boot cut and the toe-boxes don’t match between the left and right shoe...already took the tag off. Fuck.
@@JacobMarcellus oh okay thanks for let me know I find out the mochas that I buy was fake on the check check app bro I’m gonna return that later today thanks for the video
On feet nobody will gonna notice those, bottom line is its better to pay retail than resell especially now with the pandemic money really counts so better go to reps if you miss a drop than pay resell, you can buy extra goods for the difference in resell and retail price. Just sayin
My videos are made for buying purposes so you don’t get scammed. I do this for the sneaker community . Legit mochas are 400 plus dollars now. It’ll be a shame to pay that kind of money and get scammed by getting a knock off pair instead . Know the difference between the two before you spend your hard earned money.
@@JacobMarcellus Agreed--its good to know the difference to not get scammed AND to make informed decisions if you prefer to go replica instead and save the grief of overpaying from resellers since you can't cop anything good consistently from NIKE any longer.
@@Joe-xl4ub there’s more buying options than just the Nike apps. I personally get a lot of shoes from the SNKRS app. It’s proven in my videos and on my Instagram page. I use no bots I just buy.

The brown is lighter on the fake and I like that.
The UK releases do not have those little round black and white size stickers in each shoe, in stead we get that white oblong sticker in one shoe footbed.

No Shoes are WORTH resell, especially if you gonna actually wear them. That being said , almost all shoes held long enough will have Value if you don't wear them, because people want what they don't or can't have.
