2001 Air Jordan 11 Retro Black/Varsity
Red-White
The retros are different to the originals in several aspects.
Firstly the "edge" of patent leather is black (it's white in the original).
Secondly, the insoles have a white Jumpman Logo (it's NIKE AIR in the original).
The "white" squares on the carbon fibre plate is greyer on the retros.
And the carbon plate is not as smooth and nicely finished as the originals.
Watch out for fraudsters trying to pass the retros as originals!! And
as of Feb 2003, there are many eBay fakes popping up. Most fake sellers are from
China and Hong Kong. It's hard to tell from the outside just by looking at the
photos. The carbon fibre shank plate is the most obvious giveaway sign. The fake
ones are poorly shaped and are usually a black piece of plastic with grey squares
painted on it. But please don't quote me, the fakes are improving and by the time
you read this, they would've fixed this defect. Just follow your instincts, if
it too good to be true, then it's a FAKE. The current market value of real retros
AJ 11 are around US$270 to $360. If you see one on sale for US$75, then it's a
FAKE. Caveat Emptor...
