Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to snag a pair of Royal Blue Jordan 4s for a while now. I finally decided to go for it. First things first, I needed to make sure I didn’t end up with some cheap knock-offs. I did some digging online to figure out how to tell if they’re real or not.
I learned that checking the box is a good starting point. So, I inspected the box carefully. Real Jordan boxes have all the info printed clearly on the label. I made sure the box for the 4s was the right type.
Next, I moved on to the shoes themselves. I remembered reading somewhere that the size tag inside the shoe is a big giveaway. Fakes often mess up the thickness of the tag. I compared the size tag on these to some pictures of real ones online, and it seemed legit.
Then came the fun part, checking out the actual shoe quality. Real Jordans are supposed to have these bright, popping colors, and you can tell the leather and suede are top-notch. I looked closely at the colors on these, and they were vibrant. I ran my fingers over the leather and suede, and they felt premium, not cheap and flimsy.
- Checked the stitching around the soles and the mesh parts. It was all neat and even, no loose threads or anything.
- Examined the Jordan logos on the tongue and the heel. They were embossed just right, with those raised edges, just like they’re supposed to be.
Feeling Confident
After scrutinizing every little detail, I felt pretty confident that these were the real deal. I compared them to a bunch of pictures and videos online, and everything seemed to match up. I paid for them with satisfaction. And I put them on my feet and show my new kicks on Instagram. Man, I was excited to finally have these on my feet! They look and feel amazing. Definitely worth the effort to make sure I got authentic ones.
