Quality Guide
Understand the real difference between OG, Surplus,7A and other grades.
No marketing lies. Just manufacturing truth.
Accuracy
OG / Retail
Official brand-distributed retail pairs sold through authorized channels. Materials, tooling, cushioning, packaging, and QC strictly follow brand specifications.
Accuracy
Surplus / Factory Excess
Genuine factory-produced pairs released due to overproduction, cancelled export orders, or old production cycles. Structurally retail with possible minor cosmetic variance.
Accuracy
UA (Unauthorized Authentic)
Produced using original or near-original factory molds and measurements, but outside brand authorization. Shape, weight, and finish are extremely close to retail.
Accuracy
Semi-UA
Retail-accurate silhouette with selective material substitutions. External appearance closely matches retail, while internal cushioning or compounds are simplified.
Accuracy
10A Grade
High-grade replica tier focused on shape accuracy and overall finish. Materials are good quality but differ from retail upon close inspection.
Accuracy
7A Grade
Balanced quality tier for daily use. Visual similarity is acceptable, but materials and cushioning are standard market grade.
Accuracy
6A Grade
Noticeable differences in material feel, weight, and comfort. Suitable for budget-conscious everyday wear.
Accuracy
5A Grade
Entry-level build focused on price. Shape is approximate and long-term durability is limited.
Factory
Exit
Status.
Surplus units are NOT reconstructions. They are genuine products that exited the production cycle due to over-stocking, seasonal expiration, or minor aesthetic QC failures.
