  • Are unauthorised authentic pairs as good as they say? Are they simply fakes or are they better than your standard replicas? We put a UA pair through the test to find out!

      You'd be a fool to pay 1500 for some shoes. Even if you have the money. People are so stupid today. They're basically the same shoe. I wanna know who is gonna authenticate your shoes while you wearing them? Most people don't have the balls to say your fly is open. SMH.

    Great review, I rock UA all day on foot. Not into reselling at all. No one on the street will be looking at your shoes with a microscope. The UA quality has grown tremendously. One small note though. The lighting comparing the two shoes looks off, like a filter has been added. You have to have both retail & UA in hand to make your own comparisons. Either way you have to be happy with your product.

      UA means that its the top tier replica or made in the same factory as the originals but to get the best looking UA (replica) depends on which seller or which batch you get them from LJR batches seem to be the best.

    There are very few people who would be able to identify if it's a UA or Original pair on someone's feet. If you have a choice to save money and not a small amount but a huge one specially when it comes to Jordans then the smarter option would be to rock a UA pair and you can also make it your beater shoe as well😎

This is good old marketing at its greatest.. And we go back to a year ago when the Carmine 6 came out and the carmine red bled into the midsole.. And here's another example.. Goat selling low quality reps the rebellionaires 1s.. I saw that review done by Jacob Marcellus.. He was visibly pissed off

    Comparing the boxes on Retail vs. UA is kinda funny. The only time a sneaker box is important is when you sell the shoes. If you bought a pair of sneakers that wasn't made by/for Nike then You wouldn't be selling them as a retail pair of shoes. So in my opinion you comparing boxes is just reaching and digging for issues. I also feel like you were just trying to find issues with the UA pair vs. retail. If the leather and craftsmanship is good quality, then I don't see the point of searching for issues... You stated from the start that you don't, never have, and never would buy Replica sneakers. You always bought retail, and wear retail. When you open your video with that statement, I knew what you would discover when you compared UA vs. retail.. for me, being able to brag that you paid $1k for a pair of sneakers when you could have paid a fraction of that tells me you aren't very smart.

      The real UA’s are the same material & same consistency as the retail shoes & a lot of resellers sale UA because you can’t tale the difference when you get the top tier UA from the right seller 😎 dont waste your money on resellers if you can’t cop the real or if the real ones are too much then just go UA I’d say.
