roxysnonie Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 Ok lang pang porma ung peke. Pero kung gagamitin mo pang laro yan talo ka baka mainjure ka lalo. Ok lang naman bumili ng orig kung ipanlalaro mo sa wooden court. Na injured na ako dati sa fake na shoes bumili ako dati ng fake na nike cross trainer. lagi akong naiinjure boy, you must have money to burn... anyway, fakes or not injries do happen, and you cannot balme shoes for it... it could be how you play your game thats why you get injured, though i hafta admit, nike foamposite shoes do manage to injure alot of its wearers... question though... once youre wearing the shoe, does it really matter if its fake, replica or the real deal? then again, if you got money to burn, then pardon me...

roxysnonie Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I went to Cartimar yesterday & I saw the AJ3's being sold there are obvious fakes. The paint jobs are sloppy & the materials for the upper are synthetic. My friend's AJ3 fake look better. I've also seen the AA-AAA class. They almost look like the real thing but the problem w/ them is they don't have air soles & are good only for "porma". If you try them for playing b-ball, the risk for having an injury is great. yes while its true there are obvious "fakes" out there, it is obvious that once you go to these places, eg cartimar, greenhills etc, you are getting replicas or outright factory rejects...so why hit on them. ive got a replica aj3, i even got a sample torn down...lo and behold, it got the air soles and the urethane sole stuff in it, leather uppers too. want real deals, then by all means go t0 to nike stadium or nike park or other "authorized dealers" whilst the few of us who acrimp a bit will get two shoes for the price of one, and who cares if i break the shoe, ive got back up. remember, two for the price of one, ayt. anyway, its not about hitting on you guys, sure "original is best" but it this day and age,dont you think marketing has got a better hold on peoples thinking.

Van Wilder Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 i play basketball and whether fake or orig...pag minalas ka talaga ma iinjure ka, walang pinipili ang injury kahit Nike ang suot mo o KAYPEE the J19s i got from roxysnonie is pretty comfortable. :cool: the thing i noticed with fakes is that the sole is a bit hard compared to the orig, so pag mas matagal ka naglalaro mas maraming stress sa lower leg.

claypool Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I think if u will use it sa outdoor court mas malaki ang chance n masira agad,. pro kung sa indoor tabla ung flooring i think ok sya tatagal pa sya..... Quote Link to comment

Guest xbox_boy Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 boy, you must have money to burn... anyway, fakes or not injries do happen, and you cannot balme shoes for it... it could be how you play your game thats why you get injured, though i hafta admit, nike foamposite shoes do manage to injure alot of its wearers... question though... once youre wearing the shoe, does it really matter if its fake, replica or the real deal? then again, if you got money to burn, then pardon me... well hindi naman ako every other day naglalaro. once a week lang atsaka ung basketball shoes ko ginagamit ko lang sa paglalaro. so ang usual life span nya e usually 3 to 5 years.

Guest xbox_boy Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 well based on my experience marami na akong kabigan na na injured using fake rubber shoes. and isa pa madaling masira ang fake. tatagal lang yan ng 1 or 2 years. after that bili ka ulit. e para ka na ring bumili ng orig noon id rather go for the real deal mahirap ng makipagsapalaran sa fake.

Guest xbox_boy Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 bumili ako early this year ng fake na nike sandals. langya after a few days kung ginamit itong nagkaroon ako ng sugat sa paa. yan lang ang bad trip sa fake. Quote Link to comment
roxysnonie Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) we have no argument as to which is better...mine is on an economic point of view, with how things are nowadays. imagine a legit jordan 19 goes for 8,950, come on now... so you go by comfort, so what's the take on orig/fake shox basketbal shoes, i got my obserbvations on it, i wanna hear you guys out first!

Van Wilder Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 It won't really make much of a difference since origs and fakes are both made in those sweatshops in china. With Phillip knight's cost cutting strategy to generate more profit, quality of both products aint that far from each other. Quote Link to comment
Guest xbox_boy Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 well ang sa akin lang naman ung binibili kong orig e hindi usually nalampas sa P5000. I dont want to buy anything thats around P8000+++ Quote Link to comment
roxysnonie Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) well ang sa akin lang naman ung binibili kong orig e hindi usually nalampas sa P5000. I dont want to buy anything thats around P8000+++ dude van wilder, try and extensively use that jordan 19 you got from me nga, i've been hearing some complaints about its design(guys remember design ha, not from where it was made)... why? got some complaints that it hurts the shin just above the shoe collar, its the mesh, mataas daw pagka high cut nya... much like the shox, it rebounds too fast its the lower leg that absorbs the shoe's rebound action, Edited August 23, 2004 by roxysnonie Quote Link to comment
Van Wilder Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) ahh regarding the shin, just loosening the strap a bit and you'll be fine... and before the the mesh theres a protective cushion naman e, just make sure its fully extended. kasalanan ko din kasi mahilig ako ankle socks lang. hehe but overall i love this J19's...couldnt ask for more. nice pair of shoes :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool: Edited August 23, 2004 by Van Wilder Quote Link to comment
Dr.Love Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 (edited) I went to the Nike Park Outlet Store in Tutuban last weekend & the Jordan 19 mids they are selling there are at 30% discount. So the price is just P6,+++ something. This is the colorway I like. Edited August 24, 2004 by Dr.Love Quote Link to comment
Dr.Love Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 Roxysnonie: Have you tried playing on your AJ3's? Pwede ko bang makita yan before I could order from you? Quote Link to comment
