Nike MAG replicas (V2 and V3 only)

[lukebrynycz]

Some more advice for your Mags once you have them. CLEANING.

As the experienced will know by now, the tongue is a bitch as it clicks from the velcro if you're not careful, and it turns yellow just from air. Luckily, it's easily reversed with little work.

The easiest thing I've found is just a small pot with some fairy washing up liquid and a bit of water with a cloth. You can safely use this on every part of your Mags with no staining. Works brilliantly even on the main grey material! Pics below. Can't believe how manky they look just from the outdoor atmosphere.

*Before (hard to see, but in person, very mucky yellow)

Hmmm... Unless that's just a ploy to nick Karins business? lol. I'd always go with Karin cos she usually gives you some discount if you ask nicely and also specify that you want even splatter paint with no marks on them. Sounds kinda obvious to us, but not to them.

I thought that was blind luck the first time. Then on the 2nd pair I did not specify anything and the shoes were not as good as the first pair. I did make comments for the 3rd pair and they were near perfect too.

Luke and Cavx thanks for the comments useful I wouldn't have thought to ask for that, when I re-order once my accounts verified I'll use the link you posted and ask for even splatter etc!

Cheers

Hi folks. I'm planning to procure a pair of Mags in the not-too-distant-future, and wanted to verify that the Mags coming from Karin Chen did, in fact, have the swoosh and the Nike Mag detail on the heel. I read several recent posts here indicating they did, but the image I'm seeing on the AliExpress page doesn't show the swoosh and only says "Mag" on the heel, despite the fact that it still says Nike on the strap...



Can someone clarify? If I'm gonna pull the trigger on this, I want to be sure. I'm up in the air (ba-dum-dum) over whether to order these or try for the less expensive halloween costume version and wait for a possible mod kit for those.

Decisions, decisions...

If you can afford the $250, then at least you know what you are getting. If buy from this other mob, maybe you get shoes (no branding and extra unwanted stitching) or maybe you don't.

Theu do come with the swoosh and lettering. They edit those things out in the pictures to evade legal troubles.

I thought that might be the case. Thanks for the info!

I also asked her directly this question - she confirmed they DO come with Nike logo's etc. I also asked her to send me a picture of the exact shoes I'd be buying. This is what I received via email. As above my order got cancelled until Ali Express verify my account which should be done by monday / tues time at latest then ill be ordering just like you!

 

[jhk1976]

Looks good. I e-mailed her to see if she has them in a size 8 US. Any other tips for ordering these?

Had anyone good experiences with other sellers? Karen wants 125USD shipping to Europe (only option) and some other vendors offer the shoes not only cheaper, but also with free shipping or at least reasonable priced...

Newbie here,

BTTF is one of my favorite movies and these shoes have been on my bucket list FOREVER! Im ready to make a move. For months I have been trying to figure out how to go about it.

I Know there are these models and the costume store models. In your honest opinion, whats the best way to go about getting these? Seems like a lot of you had luck with Karen. any input would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I've purchased 2 pairs from Karen w/o a problem. Just don't expect the electronics to last more than a handful of wears. :/

Does anyone have experience purchasing mags from jones fashion store on aliexpress? I'm looking at buying but ms.chen is out of size 13

Well it looks like the first review of these V3 MAGs is out.

Why do people do reviews that know nothing about the product? Its frustrating. But good that people are getting into bttf still

 

[cavx]

Good that this company actually delivered the product. All I have read is how PO'd people are about this.

Why do people have their font 5 times bigger than anyone else?

I think I've seen it in this thread before somewhere, but can anyone tell me what size Michael J Fox's mags were in the film, looking to hopefully order a set to mod and display, thought i might aswell get the size he wore. Thanks.

[MitasTouch]

I believe they were 7s.
