Without seeing them in person I would say they are legit. I have held/compared the best batch reps in hand and they do not have this soft leather on the toebox. They have a harder leather that creases un-naturally if that makes sense. Also, the best batch reps have the toebox shape very close but not exact, and this toebox looks legit imo. Lastly, the fact that the insole comes out without shredding it to pieces is a good sign. The rep factories tend to put excessive glue under the insoles and they dont come out clean.
This pair is one of the closest in terms of reps are concerned so please dont take my opinion as the end all be all. I am by no means a professional legit checker but I do have knowledge with these in terms of the rep batches. The box (in hand) is a huge part of legit checking as well and that is hard from photos.
Thanks a lot, yeah the toebox leather is super flimsy and think ahaha, already creases pretty much but very softly. Insole was easy to take out I’d say and the box looks clean, I can send some pics if you need to authenticate them
Just YouTube how to QC TS Fragment Lows and it’ll show you what to look for on the box. It’s mainly the QC sticker with the lines. Everything else with the box is harder unless you have a for sure legit pair to compare to. I would recommend using Legit App and also taking them to a trusted reselling store to be checked out. When you spend that kind of money it’s better to quadruple legit check.
QC sticker will have faint looking lines/bars in it. I have only seen like 1 or 2 rep shoes that have this but you can still tell. The plastic sleeve should also be decently sturdy.
If you used all those apps you should be fine. The soft toebox leather is a big tell for me on these along with the bulge at the front of the toebox. None of the high end close batch reps have the same leather quality or toe box shape as the legits.
I’ll check the sticker once I’m home. Yes the leather was a surprise. I’ve had couple retail pairs but this one has a very creasy leather, never seen sth like this before on this model.
It's not good. The stitching is not good. if I were to be super technical I might go as far as to say the needle the factory used was too thick. Real fragments stitching is much neater. The holes for the stitching are tighter etc
I’ll note it, but again, it’s almost impossible to tell nowadays. Seller showed me receipts and checks came out all positive. I’ll try to put my soul at rest
I feel who wears reps tbh, but after paying 1.6k I want them to be retail. Again, after 4 different paid checks and 90% saying legit, I need to chill a bit
they look real. if 90% of consensus is telling you they’re legit, they’re legit. You’ll always have that 1 person that’s gonna say rep literally just cause lol. I understand wanting them to be retail paying that much, they check out in my opinion.
ofc, I’m like 100% sure they’re real after looking at photos in detail. people that validate nikes being fake due to stitching obviously have zero idea about Nikes QC lol.
EDIT: what triggers me is the flimsy leather on the toebox, and I just noticed that the box is smaller than my Travis Olive I just got (same size)
My opinion ITS fake
Explain why please
Black color ITS to Dark this toe box terrible and stitching
Which stitching and the colour is normal to be dark and slightly glossy
Stiching swoosh No Dark color its Dark or by light
I don’t understand what you’re saying 😅
damn it looks good sorry but I was sleepy looking at it
Lmk when you fully wake up then ahaha 😹
ITS legit my opinion

I used CHECKCHECK, legit app, legit ch and another one. All came back authentic.
How should the QC sticker look like?

Yes all the apps said legit, just wanted to go the extra mile
Btw I checked and there’s no sticker, apparently it’s not supposed to be there in the first place
From the photo i’ve seen, I’ll say Legit
Fake. The stitching around the swoosh is a dead giveaway
How?
It's not good. The stitching is not good. if I were to be super technical I might go as far as to say the needle the factory used was too thick. Real fragments stitching is much neater. The holes for the stitching are tighter etc
That could be QC tbh, but I hear you
It's funny that you say that because the stitching on the other foot is much better. But for me that's even more of a reason not to buy them.
Yeah sadly frags are know to have one of the worst QC. Now that you’ve looked at all the pics, what do you say?
Hard to say. But I'm still leaning possible rep.
I’ll note it, but again, it’s almost impossible to tell nowadays. Seller showed me receipts and checks came out all positive. I’ll try to put my soul at rest
Blessed bro. I feel that. That's why I rock retails and reps. Haha. Here to help all the best I can.

Thanks a lot 🫶🏻 you’re right 100%

This is legit.
