Travis Scott: Canary Yellow REAL vs FAKE (Jordan 1 Low)

Last Updated on June 10, 2024 by Ch David

This is the only legit legit check you’ll need for the Travis Scott Canary Yellow 1s (or “Elkins”).

How to spot fake Travis Scott Canary Yellow

The short answer is: Check the size tag and see if the text is too thick. Fakes always have the wrong thickness over there.

1. Size tag

• Authentic: Has thicker and more solid inscriptions.
• Fake: Thin text.

2. Back Logos

2.1. Cactus Jack

• Authentic:
  • Cactus Jack face → Thicker, denser stitches.
  • Patch → Thicker, less dense stitches.
• Fake:
  • Cactus Jack face → Less hair/stitches at the top of the face.
  • Patch → Thinner, shorter stitches.

2.2. Air Jordan

• Authentic: Thicker inscriptions and basketball.
• Fake: Text logo + Lines in the basketball are too thin.

Besides, see how the authentic shoe has a darker shade on the suede, while the fake has a lighter yellow.
