Not even. "There's a sucker born every minute." is a more factual statement. A $100 shoe that resells for $1500 isn't all of the sudden of the quality of a $1500 shoe. It's either somebody treating the shoe as an investment or somebody trying to buy expensive to flex on those who can't. The fact that the replicas can only be told as different from the originals if you take them off your feet and examine them for 5 minutes should tell you that if you pay resell, you're a goddamn sucker. You have to remember, Nike isn't high fashion. The tolerances on their shoes isn't the same as Burberry or LV or something like that. It's certainly possible to get authentic sneakers that don't pass a black light test, that fall apart with use, that are touched up with paint, that have items slightly out of place, etc. That's why it's impossible to be 100% effective when it comes to authentication. Look up videos about StockX and authentication and how they fail regularly by letting fakes get into the system? Is that because they suck or because given the QC tolerances Nike has, fakes are close enough? The entire problem comes back to the resell market. If that didn't exist then replicas wouldn't be as profitable and there would be fewer of them. Anybody on a budget who would spend thousands on a Chunky Dunky when replicas that are so good that they require close inspection to tell the difference for $115 while knowing that the leather isn't high quality on the authentic pair are either trying to turn a profit or aren't good managing their money.
Happy birthday Hes! Never bought a pair of fakes (knowingly) in my life but they’re getting so close to the originals now and this video confirms that. The genuine one is no way worth 10x that of the fake so you just have to decide whether you want to line the pockets of a reseller or a counterfeit factory 🤷🏻♂️
In the end, its your hard earned money. I rather get the rep and wear em. Would be too scared to wear a $1500 shoe. Also 5ft away, you can't even tell the difference. Shoes are shoes and are meant to worn
The issue with this shoe is that the shoe is made out of Bs materials and it’s been proven already. So it’s only a matter of time when the fakes will almost perfect. Now comfort yea that’s where it matters
As I say in the video, it would be the same question if you bought a fake Luka or Zion Rookie card that is worth $1500 if authentic? it comes down to if you want to buy authentic or not, but if you are trying to buy a $150 FAKE Luka or Zion card and are flipping them as real for $1500, then that is a problem.
Hes Kicks hey man! I got my pair in hand and went for the 30 mins check, I got my results back in 8 mins and it was a pass! Phew! Keep up the great videos man and wish you and your family all the best! ❤️
Quick tip: Always do a black light check on the fakes, usually the black light will pick up cut and stitch lines and other markings, which you can't see otherwise.
Hes what do you think of Poshmark? There are a couple pair of Chunky Dunky’s on there that look good but I’m guessing can’t be legit for the price (400-500). Never used Poshmark before but tempting...
Heck, I don't mind rocking "replicas" I believe the phrase is "fake it til you make it!" So where did you get your non-authentics from? *asking for a friend
Nice video Bro! Just a PSA for anyone ready to pull the trigger on the fakes - if you are over a size 11US; don’t do it! Even-though the sites will list the Dunks as 12 or 13, they just sew the size tags on their 11s. That was a $200 and 3 weeks wait lesson; but my son was happy for ‘em.
Wouldn't people abuse the hell outta that app?... I mean, if you're trying to pass off some fakes, just let them folks on that app have a look at em and tell you that your shoes can't be verified, or even better, they actually pass as legit... The ONLY way to be safe is to do your own research, and to only buy from reputable sellers...
Here we go again all these quote on quote "Sneaker" UA-camrs are promoting this app knowing good and well not even a Real human can authenticate some very good pairs of fake shoes.Yall are getting paid that interferes with Your assessment of this app.Its only a matter of time before this app messes up and says a fake is real or vice versa...
Watch the vid, I was skeptical of this also so I dug in and tested 9 pairs of fakes that I have compared on the past that were very close in quality and mixed in some authentic ones to try and trick them but all came back correctly authenticated. The reason why I think that an app like this will be hugely beneficial in the future is because this dedicated team will be reviewing many fakes with many future versions to come. For the price point it’s worth it for the extra professional service opinion, just my 2 cents.
I want these SO BAD. But there's no way I'm paying $1600 for a pair of sneakers. I feel weird buying fakes...but I'm probably gonna pull the trigger for these.
do it. if you were able to see nike quality in the 90s, 2000s even a bit in the 2010s, fakes are 100% justified, fk nike cutting corners and limiting good shoes. the am1 elephant for example SAT on shelves for $70 cause they were one of the first shitty quality shoes, heads thought the cw was cool but the quality was garbage, fast forward to 2020 and the real nikes now would have been seen as fake back then...
Try to get the best reps and you will be amaze.Those sneaker heads are also been curious that’s why they’re buying Reps..But if you have money 1600$ then buy it.
Go for it. Don't give over a single cent of your hard earned money to these greedy resellers. No shoe is worth paying a grand over, heck, I wouldn't pay over $300 for any shoe unless it makes me fly, jump 8 ft high or walk on water
To keep it real I buy real sneakers, like Jordans and SBs and things like that cause I consider them collectors items and obviously would want the real thing. I only buy high quality fake designer sneakers like Prada and brands like that cause I just like the way they look and they're just footwear to me. Especially since I wear them so infrequently and just wear them to a dark nightclub where I'm getting constantly stepped on.
Truly see no difference in product quality between replicas and "real" sneakers. Nike shoes are, lets be honest, made from low quality materials. As Hes says, the McDonalds of leather.
The same shoe. It represents the same idea. Go with the fake if you’re going to wear the sneaker. Go with the real one if you can afford it and it actually means something to you. To me these are just shoes and I care about the looks of the shoe. I’m not going to resale any of my fakes.
For those who think the rep makers produce fakes with the same "materials and factory" are sadly mistaken. These rep makers have their own factories and they "try" to replicate the genuine products with mostly similar materials. Sometimes, it's the exact material if they're able to outsource it from the same providers as Nike, Adidas, etc. That's why there's no "true" 1-to-1 replica.
i feel so bad for u Hes, this side by side looks like u did the left and the right shoe out of the same box. yikes... $1500, all respect to u for being able to do it but the way MY account set up 😬😬😬 ...somebody link the fake site for me 😅
Not gonna lie I’ve been searching for a supreme box logo hoodie but it’s so hard cus there’s SO many fakes on grailed and I really don’t wanna wait 2 months for one from stockx and it jus sucks that ppl sell their fakes as authentic
Lol the fake ones had nicely tied up lace rolls while the real ones weren't. I buy reps because I'm not giving my hard earned money to a greedy reseller charging 300-400% markup for shoes he and his kind don't even bother wearing or even care about the history or sneaker culture

...only half of this video was an ad , not a great ratio lol
😂😂😂😂 The rep version has better craftsmanship than the Nike version. I'll take the rep version all day for the money.
this, its insane where we are. i'm at the point with nikes quality EVEN IF can get the real, i;ll get the fakes on principal alone
I got a pair for you then! Hmu 😏
@@Gersondcalix I've got my own sources. I don't need your DHgate specials.
Minor Kicks I personally wouldn’t ever call them UA, replicas are just made differently with price grades/factories
@@Syahidsahoarder bruh my replicas are made by the same people in the same factory the real ones are made. Are they still replicas?

Not all hero wear capes
@@obel360 yessirr
took me 3 minutes to realize it
You don’t have a $1500 pair of shoes, you have a $100 pair of Dunk SBs and some $150 bootlegs
That’s exactly what I thought.
@@slyesco whats the link my guy im tryna cop a pair
differences are negligible..... LETS GO!!
A shoe is only worth what you want to pay for it
Everything in existence is only worth what someone is willing to pay

Shoe is nowhere near worth $1,500, the fact that the 150 dollars fake can be near good is due to you paying over retail for what the dunks cost
Happy birthday Hes! Never bought a pair of fakes (knowingly) in my life but they’re getting so close to the originals now and this video confirms that. The genuine one is no way worth 10x that of the fake so you just have to decide whether you want to line the pockets of a reseller or a counterfeit factory 🤷🏻♂️

Thought real under sole stitching is black. Did you get stung on a fake pair?
The fakes are really good if u intend to wear them a lot cos nobody is going to be touching and feeling ur shoes if u don’t intend to collect them
You mean the difference between a $100 sneaker and $150 sneaker 🤦🏽♂️ not $1500. It’s not like just cuz it’s resell it’s making it better quality.
EXACTLY !!! If I pay $1500 for a resold PS5, it's still a $500 console NOT $1500.🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Exactly bro
what website did you purchase the rep pair from?
I personally went out of my way to get a fake pair. Screw the retail market. Miniscule differences for 25 bucks of shoe.....
150$ for that batch, You got ripped off
Booker T search up replicas on reddit
@Booker T search travis scott dunk UA
Definetly I can get these replica between 10 and 30dollars depends on quality
The issue with this shoe is that the shoe is made out of Bs materials and it’s been proven already. So it’s only a matter of time when the fakes will almost perfect. Now comfort yea that’s where it matters
can you make a video about sizes of laces cuz idk wat size I need to buy for my custom shoes
I really want to know hes are these subtle differences really worth paying 10x more for basically the same shoe? Like for real? Is it REALLY worth it?
As I say in the video, it would be the same question if you bought a fake Luka or Zion Rookie card that is worth $1500 if authentic? it comes down to if you want to buy authentic or not, but if you are trying to buy a $150 FAKE Luka or Zion card and are flipping them as real for $1500, then that is a problem.
Done! I bought a pair of chunky dunky recently and I'll definitely use the app when they're in my hands!
Lemme know how it goes I was shocked how fast and effective it worked!
Hes Kicks hey man! I got my pair in hand and went for the 30 mins check, I got my results back in 8 mins and it was a pass! Phew! Keep up the great videos man and wish you and your family all the best! ❤️
Quick tip: Always do a black light check on the fakes, usually the black light will pick up cut and stitch lines and other markings, which you can't see otherwise.
Where’d you buy the fakes?
You spent 1/3 of the video speaking about the app. Wow. They must have paid really good
enough to buy those chunky dunks lol
Hes what do you think of Poshmark? There are a couple pair of Chunky Dunky’s on there that look good but I’m guessing can’t be legit for the price (400-500). Never used Poshmark before but tempting...
I got them UA pair, man they are nice and clean, and when I wear them, I don't have to walk on eggshells 🤣😂 cuz I pay 150 not 1400
Im just thinking, would someone go like, "hey man can you take of your shoe i just want to legit check it" would someone go that far?
Never lol. Wear da fakes if you're trying to get something hype or expensive
nobody does that bro
Heck, I don't mind rocking "replicas" I believe the phrase is "fake it til you make it!" So where did you get your non-authentics from? *asking for a friend

There are many sellers in the market, but most of them are middle man. I bought some pairs from different guys. Only one got me shocked really
DONE. I’m glad I download this app. I was skeptical at first but glad I watch your video! Great content! Much love!
Where's the link for the fakes?
they are not cheap reps but the quality is amazing www.flamsneaker.com
@@ACEKICKS thank you!
Still waiting on the dj name hes
can’t believe you pulled the trigger on real joints lol. at least you’ll have the fakes to wear around and beat up and you can frame the $1500 pair.
I really liked them, and was a bday gift for myself!
Hey thats my lap on the Nike OW dunks. Ayyyeeee!
Funny thing is reps are gonna get better because videos like this hold them more accountable 😂
Fr😂
Thanks for the free credit Hes! Checking my own pair of Chunky Dunky now.

id want the real thing so i can resell them
Re sale really messes up so many cops. Some people don't have a choice for reps lol
You mean the difference between a 100$ sneaker and a 150$ sneaker lol
No point paying crazy resell prices...
Dope vid! Salute Hes for always keeping it a buck!
To be fair it’s a $110 dollar shoe vs a $150 shoe

They aren't fake cause there made by the same people in the same factory
Can I say it's almost same? Already bought some and compared them with real, but the quality depends on where you buy from

Hopefully he didn’t buy a replica off a untrusted site again smh

I can afford it but with tgis economy isnt the best move to pay that much for shoes. I respect whoever does it but is my personal opinion. Peace
The shoes cost $100 not $1500 🤦🏽♂️
The fakes have better manufacturing then the real one.
Alreday had a try, just same as the video shows, so identical.
