“About five years ago, my mom bought me a pair of black-and-varsity red Jordan XIIs. I had them for a month when I started noticing the side panel peeling off. A few days later the sole started peeling off. I compared them side by side with my friend’s pair and it became immediately apparent they were fake. My mother was none the wiser, she was just trying to make me happy, but never buy Jordan’s on eBay!” – Mike Posner
