Tips

- If you’re buying Dunks from a reseller, check that the product label is clearly visible on the box and each shoe. Most counterfeit manufacturers hide them to scam people.Thanks
- If you’re buying Dunks from a third-party platform, like StockX or GOAT, be doubtful of any shoes that are being sold below retail price. Popular models, like the Dunk Low UNC and SB Travis Scott range anywhere from $300-$1000+.Thanks
