I was searching around on eBay for some older full tilt boots when I stumbled upon these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Full-Tilt-Ski-Boots-Black-Blue-27-5-Mens-/221770558776?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33a28e2d38 I was wondering If anyone else thought these were fake?

Aren't they supposed to say 'By Tom Wallisch' near the FT? Also it says black/blue boots, could be some idiot. It's all a conspiracy

They look dyed and kinda frankensteined, but look like genuine full tilts other than that. No where does it claim to be the Tom Wallisch Hot Doggers, at least no where that I saw. I think they are just older full tilts that were dyed blue and he got the strap from the TWalls.

Well it would certainly be the easiest boot to replicate. But still I would never understand why anyone would do it. Could easily be factory defect or something.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


seriously, that was funny.

no you dolt, no one would make a fake ski boot, its too fucking expensive. Its not like FT holds itself to some mystical level of quality that jacks the price up. They have less QC than most places that produce the fake shit for Chinese markets.

That is actually probably correct, Thanks for clarifying
