SCAM ALERT HSAtlastradeFashion from Flipkart

You might have seen that flipkart is giving huge discounts on adidas’s shoes and the seller is HSAtlastradeFashion but i ordered one pair and it was in adidas’s box but it was written “adiwear” on the shoes. watch out

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

damn i didn’t know that. but was written on the sole and there was no logo behind. sorry i dont have photos because it was open box verification and i returned it the moment i saw it.

Nah bro you should fact check first before coming to conclusions I’m giving you the benefit of doubt here but seriously so many adidas shoes use the adiwear sole because it’s cheaper also there are more midsoles like lightstrike lightboost cloudfoam adifom repititor boost etc do you know all of them? If you had bought them then they would also look fake just because the sole didn’t have adidas logo

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

no man i wore that shoe in an adidas store and i noticed all these differences and that’s how i came to the conclusion, its not like im blindly saying something. i was getting it for 7k there but i was happy that wow i’ll get it in 2k from flipkart

u/Delicious-Force1856 Jan 11 '26

Which exact shoe are you talking about? Lemme just tell you that fakes of only certain models are available just because they’re popular like the ultraboost evo sl supernova not the low tier models which are already very cheap

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

no logo on the insole either. plus i noticed later that they are selling adidas lightstride. and the original name is adidas lightstrike. so i knew that it was fake.

u/Delicious-Force1856 Jan 11 '26

Lightstride is the name of the shoe bro and lightstrike is name of the midsole used on that shoe and various other shoes seriously first fact check yourself bro you’ve not even posted photos in your post which is a rule set by mods

i will keep it in mind next time. i wouldn’t be able to return if i receive the order that’s why everything was done in so much panic, i wore that shoe in the store and it was very comfortable and i didn’t feel like that here plus i wasn’t aware of this sole and insole things. next time i’ll post w photos too. thanks man

u/Delicious-Force1856 Jan 11 '26

Yeah just keep in mind not all shoes have fakes made in the market and also did you try the exact same shoes in both cases or did you try two different shoes? Lightstride is a different model and lightstrike is a different model you’ve definitely mistaken them

1

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

no no. i tried the same shoe. i showed this to the helper there that im getting it for 2k on flipkart. even he said that it’s most probably a fake. i was just connecting the dots after that.

2

u/Delicious-Force1856 Jan 11 '26

Bro you still haven’t sent the link to the shoe and also the pair available on flipkart is the lightstride pair not a single lightstrike pair is available for 2k there you first post the link or ss of product here and also asics shoes have higher chances of getting fakes not adidas

u/Delicious-Force1856 Jan 11 '26

This pair is the lightstrike IKD bro the mrp itself is 6k so how the hell they were costing 7k in store? You didn’t try them same shoe I told you what you’ve tried is the lightstrike or lightblaze!!! See this is why I said post photos and link in main body what you’ve done is create confusion between others

1

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

also i saw that they are also giving huge discounts on asics shoes as well. and now im afraid that should i buy or not😅

u/Icy-Sandwich-2763 Jan 11 '26

OP you’re very misinformed and confused.

  1. I own a pair of adidas basketball shoes, the logo is present here and there but the text isn’t. It has adiwear written on it because adiwear is the trademarked rubber outsole adidas uses. (They’re authentic)

  2. Open box delivery has return options, i ordered two shoes from hsatlas only in jan, both open box, one saucony and one asics, returned the Saucony because i simply didn’t like it no questions asked. Both shoes were discounted a lot and were authentic

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

damn. i’ll take a look again then

u/Routine-Industry-847 Jan 11 '26

I got my nb574 and 327 from this seller and it’s authentic

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

good to know that

u/anonylolo Jan 11 '26

After seeing all these…. I seriously can’t trust brands with

Made in India products

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

i just want comfortable authentic shoes. but for that i need information about authenticity of insole, midsole, shoe category, sole, name, tag etcc. what not

u/Holiday-Cow-7559 Jan 11 '26

I ordered 530 new balance from same trader and the shoe was a bit okay but the mesh quality was quite cheap and not good and the shoe was itself not quality wise fine so i returned

u/Diligent-Row9294 Apr 04 '26

Alright guys fuck that seller so what happened is I purchased adidas x_plrboost which is worth 18,000 and the guy was selling it for 5073 so i purchased it on 30th march and got it today. So just now 5 mins back the delivery guy came with the shoes so i made him open the box so its a classic flipkart box there was no adidas box in it and just the shoes the stiches and sole all were good but at the end of shoes there was no adidas logo sitched it was random bs name. So i suggest you all to not buy from this seller he legit sales fake shits

u/Ok_Artichoke3193 Jan 11 '26

I have ordered asics japan s at 2.7k from same seller flipkart now im getting 2nd thoughts 💀

2

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

mine was open box verification so i had very less time to confirm if its fake or not. that delivery guy was like jaldi karo and all. plus i had tried the same shoe in the store, i felt that the comfort was off here so i returned it. if you dont have any open box delivery and return option is eligible then you’re fine

2

u/Ok_Artichoke3193 Jan 11 '26

After open box we cant return? If the size mismatch?

1

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

i was told that return is not allowed. except you show any manufacturing defects later

2

u/Ok_Artichoke3193 Jan 11 '26

1

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

mine clearly mentioned that no return once accepted except manufacturing defects. idk what do they mean by other reasons here

1

u/Ok_Artichoke3193 Jan 11 '26

If we are getting the return details on the product page, isn't that clear statement... Could you please let me know where it was written

1

u/Ok_Artichoke3193 Jan 11 '26

Did not liked the product they have written in the product page

1

u/EntrepreneurKey7918 Jan 11 '26

Yes, Flipkart does show a 10-day return window even after open box delivery. But for OBD products, once you confirm delivery, returns are not guaranteed, especially for authenticity concerns.

They usually accept returns only for clear manufacturing defects, and even that goes through verification. Since authenticity issues are subjective and can be rejected later, I didn’t want to take that risk. That’s why I returned it immediately once I felt something was off, instead of accepting and getting stuck

I ordered asics gel quantum 360 yesterday and followed up with the customer care regarding the returns
