Is this legit? I always buy from official store at a premium. I know of stores offering at a discount but a bit wary haha

Cant say with 100% certainty. All these listings are stated as "涂码和取芯片" which translate to removal of labels or tracking chips. Essentially, Li Ning enforces strict price control on their authorized resellers. These resellers, in order to sell at lower than allowed prices and not be caught, will remove any labels containing sku or batch codes which can tracked back to the sellers themselves.

Heres where it gets kinda murky. Some unscrupulous sellers might use high quality fakes and claim them to be authentic but 涂码和取芯片 stock. Risk factor will be there if you want to buy at cheaper than rrp enforced by Li Ning. Previously i got my pair of Feidian 5C from a reseller on taobao which state "涂码和取芯片" but what i received was with all the labels intact. At worst, if really suay suay receive a pair of fakes then just file for refund on the respective apps.

Just to add on, can watch this video and decide whether worth the risk or not

Supposedly the tracking chip is well hidden and removal might affect how the whole shoe feels. Scare tactics or not.....up to ownself to decide.

KLSCM anyone? Didn’t know it’s so popular among their locals. Compared to our own SCSM haha

Wah scary. Thanks for sharing.

Think my next Feidian 6E will buy direct from LiNing.

Few days ago on Lazada, can get the price to $229 with coins.

Haha....i have seen videos for other Li Ning models where they hide the chip beneath the insole so removal is easy. Apparently for 9U and 6E its hidden within the layer of capsule foam so i dont know how you can remove it without damaging the foam. But i cheapskate lar.....will take the risk as long the shoe its not totally unusable.

Risk is always there of not from official store. But some PDD stores has badges authenticity to provide assurance. But it is just assurance not guaranteed.
I bought my Fei Dian 5C from one such 3rd party store on PDD. Around $40. Feel it is a real stuff based on expected weight and experience.

Serious, super shoes fakes, the first thing is the weight. Using Eva vs super critical foam, vast different.

Actually if very familiar with the China Market can just hoot. I watch some moments on WeChat, they always got such lobang but never share the source haha

I think Li Ning gave the resellers go ahead to discount.

Don't know is less demand or flooding the market.

The legit store(VIVI) I bought from is now selling for only 658 RMB!

On the other hand, Feidian 6E is holding up at 1000++ for now.

This store also say 涂码 though.

Tak boleh.....buy 1 pair from taobao official or SG official can 2 pair from PDD with spare change. Defeats the purpose of saving moolah buying chinese shoes if one is gonna pay full price for them.

 

[sales69]

Ya must say otherwise cannot discount. The box I received have the QR code intact though and with tags.

Can't speak for the chip. But should be good since the bounce is there.

Especially if standing one legged on Feidian 6E, it's like standing on a balance ball. That feeling cannot fake.

Li Ning invested too much for global recognition, their price is also going to match western brand too. No choice, rely on 3rd party seller.

That said, my SCSM FD6E will buy from official store, but trainers will look at 3rd parties.
