Are you saying the knockoffs are worth it? 'Cause I am not above buying a more cheaper, more comfortable copy of a $400 shoe!
Late reply... The main difference is the suede leather. The real one feels more substantial (stiff and heavy), but they really hug your feet and it will take a good while of constant wearing to break them in. Whereas the Chinese ones uses much cheaper Suede leather (lighter and much softer). Not bad as far as a pair of shoes that cost me HK$390. The details of the Chiense knockoffs followings quite close to the real one, even with the tags, dustbags and a not-too-perfect box.

Yep. It was good. I learned some stuff. They skimmed over other stuff. They could have gone deeper and made it a two part series IMO.

Hey Kool Aid
Just keep them away from this guy.
These are what I'm feeling right now.
hahaha those are ridiculous. are they gonna get a widespread drop or just boutiques? or maybe they already out? educate a dedicated philly phan.
Im feelin those aqua laces but the silly pattern w/in the Nike Swoosh is terrible.
Im gonna have to see these in person cause Nike had been making Dunks w/ some real cheap ass plastic sythesoid leather bullshit recently.
