How to spot fake Air Jordan 1?
Quick answer
Air Jordan 1 fakes are checked via toe box height, hourglass shape from heel, wings logo embossing, size label font, and outsole stars. Colourway matters, compare to the exact release. Authentication before listing on Depop or eBay protects your reputation and buyers.

Bought Chicago 1s from a mate. Reddit LC says pass but I'm not convinced. How do you spot fake Air Jordan 1 properly?
Cop 'Em
Reddit LC is inconsistent. We use colourway-specific references: toe box, hourglass, label, heel stitch, R and stars on sole. Mates sometimes unknowingly pass on fakes they bought fake.
