Bought some fake Adidas stretch socks from Ali to help keep people from buying fakes.

First off do not buy these from anyone who has a high contrast shot of the shoes and/or refuses to show you the back of them.

The pic on the left is the dead give-away seeing as it doesn't have the three stripes of suede leather running down the heel-cup. The material isn't anywhere close to the pair of real ones I own. These are more of a thin velvet if anything, far too reflective.

The pic in the middle at the top shows that the piece of suede at the front is too rounded and just barely covers the toes as opposed to fully wrapping around the toe-box like the real ones do.

The sole is actually pretty decent, although the material is a lot stiffer than the real ones and there is noticeable color bleed from the velvet/suede dye into the sole.(Although, this is known to happen with legit pairs too).

Not too bad for only costing about 95$ after shipping. As far as I know, they only produce replicas of the low versions convincingly well. I've yet to see any pictures of high versions.

If anyone wants a dump of the full size images I'd be happy to.
