How To Spot FAKE Air Jordan 1 Low Bred Toe in 2023

Soles

We have magnified the sole to see the texture of the real vs fake Jordan 1 low-bred toe. If we take a closer look at the real pair, we can see the rubber design texture is different. The authentic pair texture is fine like granules, while fake pairs are more triangular in shape. Checking the stars, we can see that the fake pair is more clustered while the stars on the retail pair are well-spaced.

While color is subjective when checking on your screen, we can see the difference that the fake pair is pale red in color when compared with the authentic pair it's more vibrant red in color.

Tongue Label

Denoted in a red arrow, we wanted you to see how sloppy the embroidery on this Jump Man's fingers, when compared with the authentic, the embroidery is more defined and neat looking.

Another to point out is the shape of this Jump Man, denoted in a yellow curved line, for us to see the proper arc of this Jump Man. Fake pairs Jump Man is more straight than the retail.

Toe Box

As much as we wanted to discuss the toe caps, they are very much alike in shape. The main difference to tell if it's real or fake is denoted in the yellow circle, the spacing on this part of the toe box slope is more narrow on retail, while denoted in red for fake pairs, we can really see that it's wider or more space.

Box Label

One of the most important details to check the authenticity of the sneaker is the box label. One of the common flaws of replica labels is the font used, denoted in a yellow oval, we can check the boldness of the letterings printed on this label. Fake labels are bolder when compared with the real box sticker.

Another thing to note here is the size 11 positioning and spacing. We can see how the fake label size 11 is further from each other. When compared with retail boxes, size 11 is closer and has less space.

We can also check the color of the gold prints on this box label, where the fake box label denoted in a red arrow is more bronze in color when compared with retail boxes, they are gold in color.

Rear View

Moving on with our comparison with the real vs fake Jordan 1 low-bred toe, we now inspect the wing logo.

Magnified to see the difference in font, where the letter N is looking too thin, though this is kinda hard to see, the stitching itself is thinner when compared with the authentic embroidery.

Another thing to see is the color of the leather on fakes is darker in color ve retail its more like a vibrant red.

Swoosh Logo

Next in line to check is the outer panel.

Denoted in red arrow #1. Checking how the swoosh is improperly cut, and the stitching is inconsistent on the fake pair. Denoted in #2 red arrow, we can definitely see that the swoosh tail is too thick, that it got tucked in, inside that heel capsule.

Swoosh is also too close with the cross-stitching and when you compare it with the real pair, you will notice the distance is further.

NOTE: These are both size 11.

Another one to see here is denoted in a yellow oval shape, we try to inspect the stitch pattern consistency. When compared with fake pairs, it really shows the big difference.

Sockliner

One more thing to check before we end the comparison between the real and fake Jordan 1 low-bred toe is the sock liner.

Denoted in a yellow arrow, we can see that its texture is different plus the honeycomb holes are larger.

Checking the tongue piping stitching, where the stitching is too close on the edges of the nylon mesh material with no extra material protruding.
