You know what's funny? because of the angle & Perspective in the shots- I thought they were miniature shoes (like for a doll) then at the last pic I was like "How did he get his foot in that little shoe?"- lol.
If you wore socks like a normal person your sweat wouldn't cause the ink to run- lol.
TO the guy that said it was photoshopped, of course it was you dipshit. How would you like having your address put online for the world to see and fuck with you?
LOL...mine are from "Foot Locker"- lol. I've got a pair of Nike's that lasted 2 years without any unwearable damage...Gotta buy the super-expensive Nike basketball sneakers when they're 6-9 months old on a clearance rack for like $30-$50 bucks. They'll last years.
Also spray Lysol inside them after you wear them each night so you kill the sweat, moisture, and bacteria that causes them to rot (from the inside) quicker.
You could start by not buying things that were made in China. Remember to check the origins of every single thing you purchase in the future. In fact look through all your possessions and chuck everything that was made in China since they will fall apart sooner or later.
Everything you can identify in everyday scales will fall apart eventually. What sort of time scale do you have in mind?
I also fail to see how condemning the Chinese to indefinite poverty will make anything better. If anything growing the Chinese middle class so that they can afford to have high standards to subject their domestic industries to would make more sense.
I was making a point actually. If the dude actually did take a look at all his possessions, he would realise how dumb his comments were about China not exporting shit.
I mean seriously all those people who wants to condemn made in China goods should look at things they buy carefully. Probably 70% of their stuff comes from China, legit or not. If they are cheap ass enough to buy rip-off, they can't complain about quality.
You could've analyzed that the shoe box was newly opened, and the guy just tested if it fits right(or looks good on hime), thus, he doesn't really need to wear socks at that scenario.
Hey fuck you, faggot. I'm actually a Filipino, and fuck no we're no fucking gay ass Mexico of Asia.
If you've actually been there, you'll notice we are some of the most diverse looking Asians.. actually THE most diverse looking Asians ever. One day you'll be looking at a girl you think looks Chinese, and the next thing you know, she's from the Philippines. So hop off.
I AM there, and you guys are the maids, gardeners, hookers, etc. for the richer folks here (in and around HK anyways), same as back in the USA with Mexicans.
Depends on where you go in the PI a lot of places are poor but the places I went to were nice like where my parents are building their beach house, and some place called greenbell? or something like that is really nice I know it had a green in the name, but anyways all these hatters need to calm down with talking shit about the PI, cuz I guarantee you wont be talking shit if someone like Pacman knocked your ass out like he did Hatton...ANyways fuck fakes.
Sure there are a lot of questionable rip-off goods from China, but most of the proper licensed goods are also made in China. It is kind of strange to see comments about "China quality"... Do people even know where their products come from? I am pretty sure most people look at the "Made in... " tag. Isn't that like the most basic common knowledge?
The usual pro-China drivel. Since when are there any articles uncritically lauding Japan on this site? If the critical articles appear less harsh, it is because there is less to be harsh about.
Thing is, every time there's an article on China, you fill it with derogatory sarcasm to show how horrible of a place you think China is. Not so with articles concerning Japan, no matter how negative they may be.
I hope it has at least. With all the fervor being circulated towards Artefact nowadays I wouldn't be surprised if people went about getting their news and international viewpoints solely from this site alone.
certainly not up to nike's former quality standard, however billions of chinese goods are sent throughtout the world so this is bound to happen once in a while.. i guess.
comparing to the fake tiger, spray-on oranges, artificial eggs, poisonius milk products and tampon stuffed covers, this is nothing.... but i thought Nikes are made in china anyways....
1. Buy a China-made t-shirt w/ a Dragon pic on the back.
2. Wear it backwards. CAUTION:Don't rub lotion on your back.
3. Lie yourself flat on the floor for 2 minutes.
4. Strip off the clothes. The tatoo is now patched.
5. Don't bathe or else the soap and water will wash it away.
Haha, Artefact you got screwed....
(that is, if you are the guy in that picture)
But seriously, why counterfeit? The original isn't that expensive to start with anyhow....
Nobodz noticed, but if zou look closer, I think he/she got two left foot!!!!!
Buying shoes online? I never thought there was someone as stupid as a friend of mine, who does the same. As the most important clothing at all, you have to try it.
There are good quality products in China, believe me, but any american mark in china is a trap!
IF YOU BUY CHINESE, BUY CHINESE MARKS.
I wear only Li-Ning shoes, and they're really good made and looks great, better than Nike in my opinion.

We get a lot of fake clothing from China here in Czech Rep. It's okay as long as there's quality - the main purpose is to have clothes to wear, not to have a company's logo on it. With trousers, it's usually okay.
But shoes are a problem - if the shoe is bad quality, it will cripple your foot and that will affect your whole body, because you stand on it, it will throw off your balance and blah blah... it's just bad.
Just remember that made in japan was just as negative in the USA 30 years ago that made in china is today.
the difference lays in that japan make quality products today and china does not. Japaneses cars out weight American cars 9:1 were I live now. Must all appliances in my home are either made in japan or Korea. Only thing that's good about made in china is that when it does died, it's so damn cheap to replace.
1. Stuff made in China under Western supervision according to ISO standards
2. True China Quality indigenously made knock-offs
There is nothing necessarily wrong with stuff made in China as long as the whole process is closely supervised. Of course, without supervision you will end up with a Luis Futon purse full of lead-based fake eggs that attack small children and pets.
Key take away here - don't order fake Nike shoes direct from China on the Internet and expect them to actually be good shoes.
At least the mystery China shoe defect only labeled his foot. My buddy Jose P. bought a pair that had all these little hairs on them. He tried to burn the hairs off with a lighter when he was on the plane. Now he is in prison. I blame China. True story.
Your friend Jose P. was a dumbass. You forgot the third type of China quality. The type where both the manufacturer and the distributor are based in China. Just order direct from the official distributor and you can never go wrong

Buy a Nike EVER! Nike is a complete shitty product, should not even EXISTS in first place!
At http://www.ProductFrom.com one can check the origin of products. For now there are informations about 600 items. Let's hope that it will increase soon.
This is one of the main reasons Ebay bombed over here. Ebay is full of scammers selling crappy bootlegs. All Japanese people want original or they just won't buy it. Yahoo Auctions is harder to navigate and more widely used.
Nin on "What kind of jobs do you guys have?" My current school doesn't allow students to have jobs. I'm quite happy about that because I've been afraid of working in a largely social en...
OldYellowEyes on "Nippon Ichi" After years and years of developing 16 bit games long after it was acceptable they are finally failing. Amazing news indeed.
God dammit China, get your own shit.
Fucking Indeed!
If you look real close, it almost looks like the work of a Photoshop.
It's a trap too!
hehe
i like the nike mark on the feet !!!
most funny picture i ever see here.
Indeed, it seems to be a Photoshop work. Just look at the package! If it's really that blurry, noone could deliver it.
More sweatshop than Photoshop.
I think the package was blurred on purpose, to hide his address :p Just like he glared out his face.
@ Shanyy
You beat me to that quality joke. Hivemind!
@Anonymous who though this was the most funniest picture on here
lolwut have you seen ANY OTHER picture on this site :P
Lol...why don't you stop typing on your computer? It's probably made in china, and about 90% of your other things in your house
Nike children with aurthentic logo now selling!
You know what's funny? because of the angle & Perspective in the shots- I thought they were miniature shoes (like for a doll) then at the last pic I was like "How did he get his foot in that little shoe?"- lol.
If you wore socks like a normal person your sweat wouldn't cause the ink to run- lol.
Artefact is becoming a trap troll,, LOL
TO the guy that said it was photoshopped, of course it was you dipshit. How would you like having your address put online for the world to see and fuck with you?
Yeah, really... Dur.
Is it really necessary to call it a made in china pair of nikes? Seems redundant.
How much did he pay for them, I wonder...
Not as much as a legit pair of Nikes.
1/4 of the original price. My friend bought one, but it's still in one piece...
mine is in dragonbleapiece
That's why you wear socks.
And aren't Nikes made in China?
Mine are from Vietnam.
LOL...mine are from "Foot Locker"- lol. I've got a pair of Nike's that lasted 2 years without any unwearable damage...Gotta buy the super-expensive Nike basketball sneakers when they're 6-9 months old on a clearance rack for like $30-$50 bucks. They'll last years.

haha they wrote that Nike sign with a marker...and a non permanent one!
talk about cheap haha
oh China, just stop exporting your shit.JUST.STOP.
Hahaha...
You could start by not buying things that were made in China. Remember to check the origins of every single thing you purchase in the future. In fact look through all your possessions and chuck everything that was made in China since they will fall apart sooner or later.
Chuck out a good 90% of what you buy, then.
I should say Quality Control is the fuckwit here..
Chuck Norris
FFFFFFF

Tsukihime reference?
@megane: I'd imagine if cheap shits stop buying crap from Walmart they could solve their 90% of their stuff made in China problem right there.
dumb fuck deserves it anyway. who the hell wears sneakers without socks??
answer = idiots
yes its definitely his fault for not wearing socks...
i'd say hes a dumbass for buying nike, since theyre actually pretty terrible shoes to begin with.
Well at least that way he got the color on his feet and didn't ruin a pair of socks...
No way man! Then you'd have nike socks.
You could've analyzed that the shoe box was newly opened, and the guy just tested if it fits right(or looks good on hime), thus, he doesn't really need to wear socks at that scenario.
omg i lol'd when i saw the sticker ... hah china
It's that good ol' China Quality for the lulz again. -_-;
I want Nike feet. I can totally imagine plugging it into my iPod to track athletic love
If only i had a nuke.
and a delivery system too, if not, nuke arent much use....
nice feet :)
Lesson learned.
Wear Socks.
thats shoes with free tatoo
lmao most all NIKE's are MADE in China.
Not necessarily, most of the nike I see here is made in Indonesia.
yea but shoes made from thailand and indonesia is better than shoes made from china
LOL'd!
Or maybe, Pwn'd!
The pain...
Fucking chinese crap production.
Ain't most of our stuff MADE in China?
what?
his foot is made in china?
China is the new Mexico.
>Philippines is the Mexico of Asia
Fixed that one for you, faggot.
Hey fuck you, faggot. I'm actually a Filipino, and fuck no we're no fucking gay ass Mexico of Asia.
If you've actually been there, you'll notice we are some of the most diverse looking Asians.. actually THE most diverse looking Asians ever. One day you'll be looking at a girl you think looks Chinese, and the next thing you know, she's from the Philippines. So hop off.
I AM there, and you guys are the maids, gardeners, hookers, etc. for the richer folks here (in and around HK anyways), same as back in the USA with Mexicans.
Filipinos are not consider asians. Stop forcing yourselves into a group.
And the place is a shit hole, with a shit mix of everything.
Depends on where you go in the PI a lot of places are poor but the places I went to were nice like where my parents are building their beach house, and some place called greenbell? or something like that is really nice I know it had a green in the name, but anyways all these hatters need to calm down with talking shit about the PI, cuz I guarantee you wont be talking shit if someone like Pacman knocked your ass out like he did Hatton...ANyways fuck fakes.
owww yeah! Mexico of Asia ftw...
that label is so cool....Filipino ftw!
I know that person is you Artefact
Now the awful truth: More than half the things we use on a daily basis ARE MADE IN CHINA!
*dramatic prairy dog*
Here, for enhanced drama:
http://xspblog.com/2008/05/24/dramatic-prairie-dog/
*Checks all my figmas*
Yep, "Made In China"..., except with quality.
My guess is that it's fake, but who cares?
It's hilarious!
haha i lol'd so hard when seeing the nike logo on his foot... XD
Buying shoes by internet? There's none shoe store in his city? lol
Sure there are a lot of questionable rip-off goods from China, but most of the proper licensed goods are also made in China. It is kind of strange to see comments about "China quality"... Do people even know where their products come from? I am pretty sure most people look at the "Made in... " tag. Isn't that like the most basic common knowledge?
Lol'd so fucking hard.
~ I can just imagine the last piccie and HIS LOOK of WTFH!?
LOL! *cries as I continue to laugh too hard*
see this is why i wear socks when i wear my nikes
FUCK FAKES! people need to stop ruining the sneaker game for us collectors
If you buy fake stuff, it's your fault, stop fucking blaming China for it.
If those were real, the buyer will get a new pair from Nike.
Seriously I'm getting fucking tired of this site putting up all these negative Chinese articles. I'm not even Chinese; this is ridiculous.
I agree, China is not THAT bad actually.
So true, Artefact's way too damned obvious in his prejudice.
but you are okay with negative japanese articles?
There are more articles supporting the Japanese culture compared to Chinese.
Go search for the Chinese tag, do it, I can assure you that the article you find will be of negative impact to china.
The usual pro-China drivel. Since when are there any articles uncritically lauding Japan on this site? If the critical articles appear less harsh, it is because there is less to be harsh about.
Thing is, every time there's an article on China, you fill it with derogatory sarcasm to show how horrible of a place you think China is. Not so with articles concerning Japan, no matter how negative they may be.
Holy.....
That's why you should never buy something online...lolz
Same thing happens to me, got an action figure, but it's code card are somewhat damaged... Lucky for me, the action figure itself is A - Okay...
Yeah some people already pointed
out the hints of photoshop here.
And why is he holding different shoes
in the last photo???
This Chinese Nike article does not have a source. I have to assume this is an original article from Artefact. rofl.
What are you talking about. Artefact is God and he's the authority. He doesn't need any sources or corrections. Sources are only extra.
*Sarcasm has been detected*
I hope it has at least. With all the fervor being circulated towards Artefact nowadays I wouldn't be surprised if people went about getting their news and international viewpoints solely from this site alone.
Oops, too late.
certainly not up to nike's former quality standard, however billions of chinese goods are sent throughtout the world so this is bound to happen once in a while.. i guess.
Damn right!
This photo is fake
The shoes isnt even Nike. I'm been using NIKE for years and there is no such design of this model
They are "Nikes". Their fake Air Max 95's go look it up.
WOW go0d job it's a Nike Air Max 95 look it up
Ahaha.
I can imagine that this is Artefact.
comparing to the fake tiger, spray-on oranges, artificial eggs, poisonius milk products and tampon stuffed covers, this is nothing.... but i thought Nikes are made in china anyways....
How to make a Dragon tatoo on your back;
1. Buy a China-made t-shirt w/ a Dragon pic on the back.
2. Wear it backwards. CAUTION:Don't rub lotion on your back.
3. Lie yourself flat on the floor for 2 minutes.
4. Strip off the clothes. The tatoo is now patched.
5. Don't bathe or else the soap and water will wash it away.
lolerz
LOL
ROLFMAO!
I dont know Why but I cant stop lathing at his foot! XD
Priceless!
(got it... "priceless")

because now he got nike feet...
well that really sucks dude.. >.<
Congrats Artefact, you just got punked...by China.
(We all know that's you in the picture btw :p)
That's happened to pretty much all of my shoes. Big deal.
Haha, Artefact you got screwed....
(that is, if you are the guy in that picture)
But seriously, why counterfeit? The original isn't that expensive to start with anyhow....
wakakaka... lol that's funny

Just to let you know, congratulations on living in the most awesome country of Europe.
this world is made in china lol
why buy it online? Nike is a popular brand and i think it is available globally? you can have it in a local store near you
Really I am not surprised we expect anything from china
nguhahahahaahhaahha
i ... cant stop laughing... mwahahahahahaha
