    Can anyone provide some insight on if these look authentic or fake? Thinking of buying these but something just seems a little off. I figured I'd ask the experts here.

    Counterfeit. The collar is a dead giveaway.

    That's what I thought as well. Thanks for the confirmation.

    The whole shape of them just looks wrong.

    Didn't the seller put that in the description? - you think it might be a selling point.

    It's the parent who's selling them for their son so probably didn't know

    can any one in the know nod or wink at me to tell me if this is true? If it is, I'm delaying all purchases for turf/indoor court shoes till this is out in July

    Also - abit ridiculous to be charging $160 for what seems to be more finale than a proximo. K-leather is great, but the Calf leather on the Tiempo Legacy is so good I don't think its worth paying the premium to upgrade from the finale to the proximo.

    I mean at least with MercurialX/MagistaX you get the flyknit upper + dynamic fit collar (bigger fan of it for small-sided)

    I think you are also paying a bit for the Lunarlon midsole, but I agree with the Legacy comment...also you can get a MagistaX Finale Street with the same Lunarlon outsole and calfskin for about $80-$100 depending on sales and colorways. That is a pretty comfy and high performing indoor boot. http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/pd/m..._clickid=672c090a-1ebb-4fe1-b9c2-dcf918e1de58

    Is anyone picking up the low cut HV2 or Magistia in the techcraft pack? I am not a fan of the upper on the HV2 or Magista synthetic models, but the techcraft uppers do well with the admittedly nice last shapes of the two models. Same they don't make the low cuts in AG though.

    I have the entire pack from when it was canvas/volt. Big fan...

    The new white/black tech craft pack is simply beautiful. Now I just have to chose between the vapor and the superfly.

    I expect this tech craft colorway will be pretty popular because it's one of the few in recent memory that wasn't designed during an acid trip. I might snipe a pair of Obras if the mood strikes.

    The good thing about these is that they are going to be so easy to keep clean with the black collars. But I agree, why have a random black Tiempo? they could have done so more with that design.

    Because Nike ID maybe? They seem to be pushing ID with the Tiempos more than I can remember in the past. Pique, Carvajal,...others I can't remember off of the top of my head right now...not just giving the players these boots but also posting on IG, etc. that they use Tiempo ID's.

    After seeing some of the new tech craft boots up close I'm a little disappointed, the leather looked a lot more grey-ish in person than white like in the pictures.
