Check to see if the shoe is flimsy

Now when you are searching for these online you are going to find a ton of fakes. These are probably the most wanted releases out of the entire cheap jordans legacy. Their Authentic retros fetch the mid to high hundreds on e-bay. The copies can be found on the internet for $30-$100 bucks. If you have already purchased these or have the ability to look at various pictures, etc.. then look for the following:
First, off, the base of the nike air yeezy shoe has a very curvy baseline, then extends into a slight curve at the end. At the bottom of the shoe, you should see the slightly yellowed gum bottom (if they are deadstock) with a clean checkered design revealed in the middle of the shoe.
Secondly, the back of the shoe should have the 23 on a FIRM lip. The fakes tend to have a loose floppy lip instead of the kind that would rub on the back of your ankles if you didn't have high enough socks. The "23" should also be clean, and visible. The fakes tend to have a smashed together 23 on back.
Third, look on the tongue of the shoe, in the middle it should say something in some strange language with a jumpman in the middle. Once you see that, check to see if the shoe is flimsy. Can you bend it easily? If you can you may want to check back to where you got it from because they "got" you.
