you get what you pay for. fake j's last maybe a week and thats without hoopin in them. Shit hurts the hell outta of your feet and will crease up hella quick. Walmart velcro kicks feel more comfortable than fake Js
How much do you think does it cost to produce real Jordans? They are also mostly made in China. The reason why they are so expensive is mostly because of the name. The only expensive part about making shoes is opening the mould for the sole.

You pay over $100 for shoes that cost less than five dollars to make.

i bought alotta pairs of Jordans and they last longer than other shoes that are cheap even tho they are cheaply made they are still better quality than other off brand shoes.
an average pair of jordans will last me about 1 and a half years before they get turfed out.

I'm not saying that fake Jordans are awesome, but when I look at mine, they are good. There are also many shitty ones, no doubt.

Here are my real and fake Js. The real ones I use for playin basketball. Wouldn't use fake ones for playing bball.

Sole seems to be same material. Also same weight. (top ones are the fakes)

Normally I don't wear Jordans except for playing, but those are the only ones in my size...

I only wear Nike, so I don't really know bout quality of any other shoe company. Don't get me wrong. I love my Nikes...

I bought some fake Jordan 4'sa while back. They looked very real and really couldn't tell the difference. Wore them for a while too until the sole started to rip in half down the bottom of the shoe. Havnt bought any fake Jordans since

lol at fake j's or anything fake for that matter. why pay any kind of money for some fake shit if you can't really afford the real shit?
I think you answered your own question there.

Nothing wrong with some fake stuff, some is trash some is hard to tell the difference. Go ask 10 random people on the street and they most likely would not be able to tell the difference.
