Ernie Power brought to my attention this morning that he's been seeing a few fake Structures floating around lately- and he thought that it might be a good idea to create a thread to warn our members of known fakes so no one here becomes a victim.
So this thread is designed as a guide to known fakes-
this is not a legit check thread, please use the legit check forum for that. This is simply a place to post pics of known fakes and the list sellers that hawk them. This thread is for runners, ACG and cross trainers only!
Please note that the intention of this thread is to show pics of known fakes and to identify fake sellers- while I appreciate the thanks that everyone is giving, please limit your posts in here to discussion of what distinguishes the fakes, pics, and listing the sellers that sell them.
Here's the Structures Ernie showed me this morning- easily distinguished as fakes... Check out the tongue on them versus a real pair:
FAKE!
