Here is a shot of the shoes in my office. They look better in a slightly darker setting. image.jpeg

Ok. Here is the moment you've been waiting for. Here are the replicas compared to the real MAGS. I can honestly say that these are REALLY well made. Just like the real Nike's. The biggest differences are the fabric is slightly green/grey and different texture. Also the LEDs are much brighter but the EL is much dimmer. The midsole is exact, the ankle buckle is exact, the clear soles are exact (except with less blue in them) and the fit is very close to the real ones. @cavx will be happy to know that the tongue is actually longer on the replicas. :)

how is the sizing of the new v3? Should we go half sizedown or a full size down or stay TTS ?

Personally I found them to fit perfectly to size. I normally wear a 10.5-11 in Nike and these were 10.5 and I had maybe 1/4" of room.
 
Well that's it, now that jedifyfe has given his verdict and the photos of the comparisons with the real MAGS have shown how good these are.....I'm gonna have to get some!
 
Also. The photos don't show it but the LEDs are the perfect color. In most photos they seem to all glow reddish-orange but I person they glow distinctly red, yellow and red. Exact same colors as the real mags just brighter and slightly more diffused (due to the frosting if the bubble)
 
im surprised they went the extra mile for the box and side items like that. and the whole things is ten times less than the cost of the authentics.

childhood dreams = fulfilled



edit: what about the insides/insoles jedi? can you stick your camera down in there and show us a view from the heel?

Jedi, so advice to take the right number for the foot? Not fewer? I wear a 10US, advise me to take a 10?
 
Here we go pulling the trigger as well! Good luck to everyone today lets hope the orders get shipped. As an added security measure is anyone thinking of getting a new CC after the order ships?

They are shipping in a plain white non descript box with the yellow box inside. The shipping invoice says shoes and puts the value at $40. You guys in the UK or other countries with import tax will be happy about that.
 
ok guys if you bank with Chase expect the first order to be declined. You'll have to let me know it is you doing the purchase.
 
Cheers Brad for the heads up on import tax I was dreading that on $600 :D
Now it's just wait and see on shipping notice email,hope not to long .
 
They look really great!

I sill don't trust them at all though so I'm happy to wait longer until everyone actually starts getting them.

The lights look great in that photo, much like the other photos from the seller. But is that still the same brightness as the 2011 comparison pics?

It'd be kinda dumb if they chose to dim the EL that much just for better battery life. I'd rather have 6-10 hours of bright EL than 90 hours of dimmer EL.

Would be interested to know how the brightness compares with our modded 9v V2 setup.
