Box Tag

Fake Education: "For whatever reason, the box label came stuck to the box and not the lid and is for the completely wrong Jordan 3."

Outsole

Fake Education: "The traction bumps on the outsoles of the fakes on the back heels are sharper and more defined."

Laces

Fake Education: "The color of the laces on the fakes are the same color is the wool upper. On the real pair, they are slightly a different color."

Toe

Fake Education: "The cut of the panel this segment is focused on is a lot wider on the fakes. It is more rounded on retail pairs."

Midsole

Fake Education: "The bumps on the toe caps of the fakes are sharper and more defined and have an overall different look."

Tongue

Fake Education: "The tongues on the fakes are very tall."

Eyelets

Fake Education: "The lace hole tubes protrude beyond the upper on the fakes. They are level with the upper on retail pairs."

Heel Tabs

Fake Education: "A look at the back heel tab interior difference. There is a difference in color, as well as panel cuts behind the tabs."
