If you've ever scoured for Foams online and ended up on some shady sides as a result of a Google rabbit hole, you know that there are some pretty bad replicas out there. How bad? Check the listings below for a breakdown of the worst fake Foamposites.
10. Ugly Sweater
1.
These Foams aren't authentic, but the manufacturer is poised to run 'South Beach' into the ground just like the real Nike.
9. Supreme
2.
Initial word of Supreme's Foamposite collaboration spawned this rumored design. And rightfully so — the tasteless overbranding was a dead giveaway. Instead, they threw a curveball, opting for an all-over faux Versace print.
The best thing about this fake is that cut-off lettering on the fan-made rendering led to the manufacturer rolling with a 'Soprel' design.
8. Sole Collector
3.
There's two things at play here. First, these aren't even close to being our shoe. However, it does mean we dropped something worthy of being counterfeited. Thanks?
7. Bengals/Sharpie
4.
Credit to the knockoff factories for being a step ahead on 'Sharpie' Foams.
6. New York Giants
5.
Safe to say that Victor Cruz won't be doing the salsa in these anytime soon.
5. Light Up
6.
Just when Tyga was about to revive LA Gear Lights...
4. What The
7.
In this fake's defense, it stacks up favorably against the actual 'What The' sample that's been making rounds.
3. Checkerboard
8.
Because only a man of sophistication would wear chessboard Foams.
2. Leopard
9.
Copped some 'Posites, I'm sweatin.
1. Air Max
10.
This 360-Air Max version would also top a list of Nike Sportswear's most inevitable releases.
