FINAL COMMENTS;

Looks 7/10. Profile and look is good. Disappointed with non-original sole. Faux leather looks okay at best but doesnt even compare to real leather. That being said they look no worse than any other basketball shoes at this price point by big name brands.

Smell 12/10 -- smells like glue and cancer

Build quality 6/10 They look like theyll probably last a season or two if I dont ruin them -- will post pics every few weeks

Lastly, they fucking squeak like plastic because theyre made of plastic. Hopefully when they break in theyll stop making noise.
