NEW!
We all know the Nike x Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low collaboration, but in 2021, the team reunited once again to drop a nice pair of low 1s.
Though this time there’s another collaborator, and it is the famous Fragment Design brand, creating an awesome blue sneaker with Travis Scott’s Air Jodan 1 Low.
Fragment x Travis Scott’s Air Jordan 1 Low are very limited and really rare, and as cool as they are, we have to admit that there are lots of fakes out there.
It is generally good to know whether you are looking at a real or fake Travis Scott Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low, especially when you want to buy one of those.
We are here to teach you everything you need to know when it comes to authenticating Cactus Jack x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low.
To put it shortly, the fastest way to spot fake Fragment x Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low sneakers is to check the size tag inside each shoe, as well as the tongue’s label. You’ll always see the fake pairs with their text on the size tag at the wrong thickness and the tongue’s label’s text being too wavy and badly font-weighted as well. The real pairs are always flawless.
Let’s begin the guide on how to spot fake Air Jordan 1 Low Cactus Jack Fragment sneakers with the size tag because as we’ve said before, we like to believe that this is the best way to authenticate these shoes.
With this being said, let’s jump right inside the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Travis Scott Fragment sneakers, and let’s have a look at the comparison image below.
The image with the fake vs real Fragment Cactus Jack Air Jordan 1 Low above shows you four flaws – let’s take each one of those individually, in the same order in which they’re being counted.
The first flawed text on the fake Travis Scott Fragment 1 Lows is the one that tells us the unique style code of these sneakers: “DM7866-140“.
Looking at the fake pair’s text, you can notice how it has its numbers, and letters and the dash (“-“) look too thick and too bulky.
As for the real Cactus Jack x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Lows, you can see how their style code is thinner and how the characters are narrower than the fake ones.
Skipping one line of text from the style code, we now have to deal with the “UPC” text and with the numbers next to these three letters.
The UPC code is something with more of an internal meaning that Nike cares about more than what we do. The UPC code is also unique for each legitimate pair of Fragment x TS Air Jordan 1s.
The fake pair has both its “UPC” inscription and the numbers nearby looking too bulky and thick, and since these are too thick, they are also placed too close to each other.
Talking about the real Fragment Air Jordan 1 Lows, you can see how their “UPC” text/numbers look thinner and how they have more space in-between each character when put side-by-side with the replica text.
The last line on the size tag redirects you to Nike’s website, but this page should not really raise any interest. We need to check the inscriptions rather than where the website leads.
On the fake shoes, the text with the website is too thin and it has too few letters filled with a lot of paint.
On the other hand, the real Fragment x Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Lows have their Nike website text looking thicker and with way more letters filled with paint than the fake ones.
Basically, the real pair’s text has to be filled with as much paint as it can be barely legible. Weird or not, we don’t really know why the text is like that, but it just has to be that way.
Well, this text is pretty self-explanatory – it tells us that the shoes were manufactured in China, and the text is spelt in multiple languages.
Looking at the counterfeit Travis Scott Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low pair, you can see how the “MADE IN CHINA” phrases look too thin and how the letters are a bit too tall and big.
On the other hand, the genuine Travis Scott Fragment 1 Lows have the same block of text saying “MADE IN CHINA” with its characters looking thicker and shorter/boxier than the fake ones.

Proceeding to the second-best way on how to tell fake Air Jordan 1 Low x Fragment x Travis Scott sneakers, let’s have a look at the shoes for their interior tongue labels.
In the very first paragraph of this article, you can see how we’ve mentioned that this label can also easily tell you the authenticity of a Fragment TS1 Low pair of sneakers.
That is because the real pairs must have their label really precise and without any imperfections that are seen on every fake pair.
This image with the fake vs real Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 x Fragment comparison image above portrays how the fake pair has its text badly detailed, and how the real one is flawless.
1 – First of all, the “TM” text on the classic Air Jordan logo looks too thick and too tall on the fake shoes, whereas the real pair has this text thinner and less stretched.
In fact, the authentic pair’s “TM” inscription looks narrower and it is boxier than the fake pair’s word.
2 – Up next, the “NIKE” text and the rest of the line of text on the fake shoes are too thick, and the letters are too wavy.
Meaning? The fake pair has its letters too bulky and the words are placed at different levels, therefore making these look like waves on a larger scale of viewing the text.
Looking at the real pair’s text, you can observe how the characters are thinner and how they are all placed at the very same level, without being wavy.
3 – The third flawed inscription on the fake label is the “SWOOSH®” text.
The fake pair has its letters looking way too thick, and moreover, the letters are placed too close to each other, leaving too little empty space in-between each other.
On the other hand, the real pair of Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Lows have their “SWOOSH®” inscription’s characters looking thinner and with a larger kerning, therefore the characters look more aired than the fake ones.

The Nike x Travis Scott authentications team is happy to help you decide once and for all!
Moving forward to the third step of the Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low authenticity check process, we need to talk about the midsole’s text.
As you may know, these sneakers have an inscription that is quite long. Most of the fake pairs don’t have their midsole’s text properly font-weighted and spelt.
Looking at the fake vs real Air Jordan 1 Low x Travis Scott x Fragment image above, you can see how the fake pair has its text looking too thin.
This flaw can be the most noticeable on the fake Air Jordan 1 Lows if you look at the “TRAVIS-HIROSHI” and at the “F-8-99” text.
On the other hand, you can see how all of the inscriptions on the real Low Air Jordan 1 x Travis Scott x Fragment shoes have their text thicker and bulkier than the fake one.
Here’s a key tip when you want to spot fake Low Air Jordan 1 x TS x Fragment:
The text on the midsole should say “FA-21-MNJDLS-358-TRAVIS-HIROSHI/TOOLINGCODE: OS283 F-8-99“.
Looking at the image above, do you see any difference between the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment Travis Scott pairs’ inscriptions?
Well, the hand-emoji pointer may make it easier to see it: the fake pair spells “642” instead of the real pair’s text which says “358”.
This flaw is caused due to the little attention paid to detail by the replica manufacturers, and that is because:
With this being said, in order for a Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low pair to be authentic, you should see it says “358” on the midsole’s text, and never “642” – that’s the High Top pair’s number.

Going to the fourth method of the guide on how to tell fake Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low x Fragment, let’s have a look at the details on the back of the shoes.
As you may know, the left and the right shoes are different, and in order to keep this comparison tidy, we are going to start with the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Travis Scott Fragment shoes on the left pair, and then we’re going to look at the right pair.
The left shoes present Travis Scott’s Cactus Jack logo, as well as the Fragment Design logo below, and for the first comparison, we are going to look at the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Low Travis Scott on this side.
Let’s start with the beginning: the Cactus Jack text logo.
Looking at the replica Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Lows, you can see how the three lines at the top of the logo look too thick and how they’re too big.
On the other hand, the same three lines on the real shoes are thinner and they are smaller than the fake ones.
Up next, the fake pair has its Cactus Jack face logo looking too massive as it was fit stamped too deep into the blue leather.
The authentic Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low has its face logo fit less deep into the bleu leather, hence why it looks slimmer and smaller than the fake one.
Check out our other Nike legit check guides: Dunk Low, Air Force 1, Air VaporMax.
Leaving the left shoe aside with the Cactus Jack logos, let’s move to the right real vs fake Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low shoes.
Here we need to deal with the classic Air Jordan logo and with Fragment Design’s logo as well.
The picture with the real vs replica Travis Scott Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low shoes above shows you two flaws.
First of all, the letters in the classic “AIR JORDAN” text look too thin and too narrow, while the real ones are thicker and wider.
Then, looking at the Fragment logo, you can see how the fake pair has its circle/thunders fit too little deep into the leather, therefore looking too thin.
As for the real pair, you can observe how the circle/thunder details fit deeper into the blue leather, hence why the real Fragment Design logo looks thicker.
For the fifth way on how to tell fake Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1s, we are going to look at the shoes for their stitching on the footbed.
The footbed is the part below the insole, s in order to reach it, you need to take out the insoles of your Travis Scott 1 Lows.
We’re mentioning this side of the shoes as both the insole stitching and the footbed – they’re the same.
This fake vs real Fragment Travis Scott Low Air Jordan 1 image shows you how the fake pair has a lower stitching density when compared to the real pair’s footbed.
That means that the fake footbed has too few stitches all around its footbed, while looking at the real pair, you can see how there are many more stitches.
The steps we’ve written so far are the best ways to authenticate this item.
The next few steps are still reliable signs of authenticity but are for non-top-versions of replicas available for this item. We recommend sticking to the steps we’ve explained above to make sure you’re not drawing the wrong conclusions.
Moving forward to the sixth method of the guide on how to tell fake Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low, we are going to talk about the inflation level of the toe boxes.
In order to do so, we need to go to the profile sides of the real vs fake Fragment Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low.
In the image with the authentic vs fake Fragment x Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low above, we have pointed out how the fake pair has its toe box lifted up too much.
That means that the fake pair’s toe box is too far away from the ground, while the legit pair’s toe box is closer to the ground.
For the seventh way on how to tell fake Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low, we need to talk about the 3M reflective Cactus Jack logo.
This logo is supposed to be seen on the interior profile sides of the fake vs real Fragment Cactus Jack Air Jordan 1 Low.
As we’ve said above, there is supposed to be the Cactus Jack logo that can be the most noticeable when put under the flashlight.
Looking at the fake pair of Travis Scott x Fragment 1s, you can see how the logo is… Missing!
On the other hand, you can notice how the Cactus Jack logo is present on the interior profile side of the real Air Jordan 1 Low TS Fragments.
Proceeding to the eighth way on how to spot real vs fake Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment, we have to talk about the toe box again.
Though, this time we need to look at the shoes from a top-down view angle, as we have to focus on the perforations of the toe boxes.
This fake vs real Travis Scott Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low image above shows you how the fake pair has its perforations on the toe box looking too large.
The same perforations on the real Fragment TS1 Lows look slimmer and narrower than the fake ones.
Proceeding to the ninth step of the guide on how to authenticate Nike Air Jordan 1 Travis Scott Fragment, we need to look at the exterior tongue badges.
Precisely, the label which we care about at this step is the one saying Nike AIR.
Looking at the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Travis Scott Fragment shoes above, you can see how the fake pair’s registered trademark “®” symbols look too thick.
As for the real pair’s symbols, you can notice how they are thinner and slimmer than the fake pair’s “®” characters.
Moving forward to the tenth method on how to tell fake Air Jordan 1 Low x Fragment x Cactus Jack, we need to talk about the “Cactus Jack” tongue label.
As you can see from the real vs fake Air Jordan 1 Low Travis Scott x Fragment, the fake pair has its “Cactus Jack” text looking too thin and basically too stretched.
The “stretched” flaw can be noticeable if you look at the letters “C” and “U”, where you can see how they are too tall and seem like they use a different font from the real shoes.
For the eleventh method on how to tell fake Air Jordan 1 Fragment Travis Scott sneakers, we need to talk about the “FRAGMENT DESIGN” text written on the tongue’s badge.
The fake pair has its “FRAGMENT DESIGN” text looking too thin and uses a different font from the real pair’s text.
Speaking of which, the genuine Travis Scott Lows have their “FRAGMENT DESIGN” text thicker and use a font which has less curvy letters than the fake one.
For the twelfth and also the last step of the guide on how to tell fake Air Jordan 1 Low x Travis Scott x Fragment, let’s talk about the stitching on the white Nike Swoosh logo.
As you can see from the real vs fake Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low x Fragment image above, the fake pair has its stitching on the logo being too little dense.
The same as on the footbed, there are too few stitches on the fake pair’s Swoosh, whereas the real pair has more stitches and the Swoosh looks more consistent than the fake one.
