What sz are you again? Follow Corgishoe in IG if you dont already. He unloaded a few Mr Cartoons for like $115 some months ago. Earlier this week had some Brown Prides no box for like $50

Guess Ill bring this thread back from the dead instead of starting a new thread.

Bought some JayZ Jordan 4s. Replicas of course, because there is only 1 known real pair. Concept or custom, its still unclear on what they original ones were. What I do know is the colorway is lava. Id say if the original were concepts it was x'ed when Jay-Z signed with Puma later in 2017?

Similar to these but instead of the JayZ logo on the tag they went with the standard jumpman

Guess it depends on the operation. There are Large and Small ones making reps eh. Once you get past partners, Im sure the grunts are getting whatever the minimum wage is. IDK. Reps are getting so good these day perhaps better known replicators pay a little more for skill. I doubt it though, cause at the end of the day its still just a shoe and factory workers in asia.

I buy reps and authentics and it really is getting hard to tell the difference depending on what teir rep you buy. The batches of said reps vary from booty to 1:1. For example, I also bought a mid teir Jordan 1 Low Travis Scott for 45 dollars to go with those 4s. This is one of the several QCs pics of what showed up in hand in my warehouse. The shit isnt 1:1 if you know what you are looking for, but its very close. This Fugazi is bellissimo. If I were shady I could resell it to some dope for an easy 1k+.

I can tell these are fake right away. Look at the swoosh. It's backwards.

Havent really ordered reps or authentics for awhile but a buddy wanted shit from china so Ive added 6 shoes to ship too. heres another pair that showed up iun the warehouse. limited to 150 authentics, so yeah reps of the j4 manilas. fucked up box, but its not even a real rep of the authentic box. trash regardless.

As much as I like Jordans, I can’t rock them. I feel like a kid trying to be hard in them. I bought some once and just gave them to my nephew. But they are nice, just not my fit I guess.
