What's the difference you say? The retail one leaves a nice big dent in your wallet and the fake ones allow you to eat 😂

For everyone: If you pair has a chinese mark - it does not immediately mean that they are fake - the protection pack sat on the shelf in china at offical new balance stores (yeah chinese also wear originals - dont be racist) - also the insole hole check is not accurate because it depends on the size of the shoe where the holes on the insole end up
- so you need a second pair of the same size to check that - also the shoe tree papers can be different - i recieved two different shoe pairs with two different shoe tree papers inside - both are legit

I would say the best spots to check it are the overall colour, the suede material and the seams that are difficult to see, and the heel part especially the holes on the back part (in the video you can see how unclean they are and on the original pair, they run in a sharp curve)

[HarbringerSalami]

Does the fake have the same comfort as the retail one?

[jayredz]

I prefer NB for their comfort and durability. Are the fakes noticeable interior?

[YexnyXD]

The suede on my pair is very long and almost stringy, what does this mean?

[peterorfanos]

My box has Chinese label but the colours are right even on the web part on the underneath also the swede is rugged and resembles new ones

[sir_squonks_alot_castro]

My box looks just like the Chinese label. Suede is very thin and I had to brush the suede for hours…to make it look close to real. Date on shoe saids 9/22 so not sure if that’s right. Oh yea box had a stamp on it. Found it near the goat barcode sticker on the outside. Looks like someone tried to take it off but the stamp is still visible. Get a black light flashlight to check everything! Especially with that box

[GamerBoss]

I have a weird R8 on my box when shining blue light, and then on the back of the shoe there’s invisible ink/stitching marks at the exact half way, normal or fugaze?

[eyoub]

Where did you buy the fake shoes please ?

[moonlightxlines]

Could have just said the mesh on the toe box is darker on the fake. These actually fit chunkier

[scuttyHoOG]

Where and when did you buy these when u bought them? Just for some clarification so I can check my pair against yours.

[sterlingruth]

are 2002r and 2002r protection pack the same chunkiness if same size?

[Zeachh]

Just got my pair from stockx, seems chuncky and the back triangle panel looks like the fake pair you showed in this video, but everything else looks legit, thoughts?

[Tallterryjr]

I got a pair from goat and I’m kinda iffy, under black light on one shoe the stitching glows and my pair is from China with a mfg date of 092022.

[sikarinariyasantikul]

If it from china it alway fake or not?
Or they have real made in china too

[rzone]

Would the lack of white dusting on the green part of the heel considered to be fake?

[andrewthomas]

Well done. Consider doing some "on feet" and comfort after 30days of wear comparisons.

[felps]

Hey bro, good review abour 2002 rain cloud. Did you see the prices in Stockx is going down? It’s because New Balance China been restocked this cw imo. They call “Refined Future” the Protection Pack collection and there are some differences between them. The main difference is the “first” Protection Pack was made in Vietnam meanwhile “Refined Future” are made in China. Suede is not that good as it was and quality decreased. How about make a review comparing both (supposedly) legit pairs?

[meneferra]

The fake is spot on but not over the original price tho, 50 bucks standard flee market price will be cool
