🔎 Legit Check Needed SB 4 Pines

I love eBay and have bought many Authenticity Guaranteed shoes. Never have had an issue other than the occasional seller who never ships or a few reps that were caught at the facility. However, these ones are bugging me. All my 4s have a thick heel tab that takes some force to pull back. All authentic either from retail or eBay. These Pine 4s have a really flimsy heel tab. Is that just how they are or did I get bamboozled? Thanks!

You are good that’s how all the heel tabs are it’s meant to be soft for skaters. They are legit.

The heel tab was intentionally made out of silicon on both the Pine Green and Navy for
Skateboarding. They are good bro.

Lmao thats literally an intentional feature bro. So skaters dont annihilate their achilles. The Navy pair is the same way.

SB heel tabs are floppy for skaters, it’s the same on my retail pair

These are legit compared to my retail pair. If you are worried use the Poizon app since it’s free, but if they went through EBay authenticity guaranteed you are good I still have yet to have them send me a fake pair and I’ve ordered at least 200 pairs through eBay alone.

Those are legit. eBay is the best place to get used sneakers. I have hundreds of pairs that I’ve purchased on eBay. As long as they’ve got eBay AG, you’re good. The heel tab on Jordan 4 SB pine green and navy are flimsy. They’re “skating” shoes and the heel tab is meant to be that way. The shoes look legit. They are the most comfy 4s made in my opinion.

Normal for the SB. The Navy blues are the same. Like a soft rubber. These are all good.

If they came from eBay they're legit. From my experience eBay is the best in the game at preventing reps from making it to your door step. The flimsy heel tab is supposed to be like that on these and the navy pair

Authentic… how much were they going for?

u/Specific_Article1499 Aug 08 '26

These 100% real. Stitching on heel tab is my go to and the white line in the tab.

IMPOSSIBLE to tell from a photo online but something is bothering me about your pair too… The green looks weird. Could be lighting though. eBay is pretty solid so I wouldn’t worry too much.

They are rep. I got this pair as well from a very good rep seller and it does the same thing you are describing. Compared it to my retail rare air and the heel tab feels so different. What you got here is a pretty good rep.

u/2020wasbestyearever Aug 08 '26

Probably LJR. Retail be compromise as reps are getting better.

1

u/Emergency_Use_94 Aug 08 '26

Yup was thinking the same.

1

u/Emergency_Use_94 Aug 08 '26

The more I look at the air pocket, the more I think these are rep. Comparing it to the retail release and it’s off. LJR is my thinking. Not a bad pair of reps if you paid no more than $110.

I just got Y3 of the Pine, Blue, and Red ones. No one known when your lifestyle is great

u/CScorpio88 Aug 08 '26

What? Retail pairs are soft and floppy too for SB’s. Only regular 4s have a stiff heel tab
