Want to purchase a pair of basket ball shoes but not sure which is the right one for you? The most popular basketball shoes possibly ever created are the Air Jordan shoes. The price tag on these shoes varies greatly and it is often difficult to tell if you are getting a genuine pair or a replica.

There are many knockoffs created by scam businesses, they look real enough, almost perfect, but can be in fact be fakes. How do you know then whether you are getting a real pair and getting the genuine article or you are getting a fake pair and being part of a full scale ripoff? There are many businesses that will take gullible consumers and sell fake or replica Air Jordan shoes, not only online but on black market stalls on the streets. Either way you don’t want to be part of a ripoff and you want your genuine Air Jordan shoes, but what will you actually get and where will you get them?

The problem is that you don’t know if the shoes are real or fake if you base your decision only on price, because genuine shoes can also be sold at a much lower cost than the so called genuine Jordan shoes. Genuine Jordan can sometimes be sold at 25-30% of the normal cost. You can buy these shoes online or from the so called black market operations. Those people who are not aware of the various different versions of the Air Jordan may have no idea what the differences are between the fake or knock off shoes being sold by a scam artist or the real genuine or replica product being sold by the big business in America or a wholesaler. It is very difficult with good quality knock offs to tell if they are real or fake. The main reason for this is that all of the Air Jordan shoes will be made in another country.

As an example, if a factory worker called P1 (Person1) in Asia somewhere is making Air Jordan shoes that will be shipped to America for sale as the real genuine article for perhaps $300 or more then the person next to P1 in the factory, we will call him P2 (Person2), is also making the same shoes they are called a replica and a knock off version because it is not going direct to the “Big N”. You know which company I mean name has only four letters in it and based in America. The shoes that are sent to the “Big N” are they therefore real or fake? They are quite probably made next to P2 who makes the shoes for a wholesaler so which ones are real and which ones are fake? Which ones are genuine and which ones are replicas? When you buy the shoes made by P1 at $350 you may in fact being more involved in a ripoff, since these shoes may be the same as those made by P2, sitting at the table next to P1, but they are called a replica because they will not go to the “Big N” in the USA? Which is real or fake? Which part is the rip off, buying the same shoes for $300 being a rip off or buying them for $99? You have to decide which shoes are knockoffs and why? Do you want the so called real shoes made by P1 or the replica and so called fake shoes made by P2? Tricky isn’t it!

So when you consider the fact that the shoes are quite probably made in the same factory but distributed to different retailers/wholesalers for different prices, where is the scam? The expensive so called genuine article made by P1 or the replica or knockoffs made by P2. You have to make the decision whether you want to pay $300 or more for a genuine “replica” made by P1 or the “fake” replica made by P2 and pay less than say $100. They are mostly made in the same factory so how do you figure it out?? Fake or real, real or fake $300 or $99! I want the shoes made by P2 and pay the better price for the same Air Jordan shoes – don’t you? One thing is sure those who are selling Jordans at $99 per pair are not making billion dollar profits.
