This is interesting since Flight Club is known to overprice the sh*t they have and some UAs even have slipped through the cracks.

To be honest, none of that sh*t is fake in today's time. All of it is made in China or some other Asian country.
The only thing that distinguishes "real" from "fake" is the place from where it was purchased.
I've literally seen UA pairs next to store bought pairs and there is absolutely no difference. And when I say "no difference" I mean it.
When you have the rise of so-called "authenticators" to tell you that the stitching is 1MM off and the stitching under the insole isn't the same as a pair that was bought at Footlocker, then you know the game has changed.
Nowadays you have re-sellers selling to other re-sellers. The re-sell bubble is going to burst eventually. There is always something new on the horizon that will be hyped out of this world.
People see a shoe listed on Flight Club or Goat for 1k and believe that it's worth that. Nah. That's simply an inflated price and what the seller HOPES to get for the shoe.
Just because something is listed at a certain price doesn't mean it's worth that. I have the Air Jordan 1 High Diors.
In my size upon release, they were going for 25k on the resell market. That was 10 times the price I paid for them. Which was a little over 2k. Currently they are sitting on Flight Club for 9k.
Them sh*ts aren't moving at all, and they have sizing from 3.5 to 20.
