Those shoes are as fake as flea market Jordans. If you see ridiculously reduced prices like that on all their merchandise, you can believe they came from China, and should be a major red flag. Nike.com is a legitimate site, not that.

Fake
Nike.com is the ONLY site selling real Nikes that is allowed to use the "nike' trademark in their domain name. Any other site you find using the name is actually breaking the law - it's called trademark infringement.
Best case - you get cheap Chinese fakes that fall apart the first time you wear them. They aren't leather, they don't look like the real thing, and the seams are glued rather than stitched so they fall apart
Worst case - they steal your money and don't send anything and your credit card company/paypal won't refund you as they don't offer protection on illegal transactions like purchasing counterfeit items. Or they are confiscated and destroyed by Customs upon arrival in the country and you face a fine for importing counterfeit goods

the name alone raises suspicion.

I can confirm the site is registered to a Chinese address, meaning that any product delivered would be counterfeits, it appears to be 3 1/2 years old which is longer than the survival of most counterfeit sites, I would think they most deliver in ,ost cases to stay around for that long.

Try to deal with better know reputable dealers next time

The 3 basic tests you can make of an online store.

1) Check the domain name whois owner information, many of the Chinese counterfeit sites will be immediately exposed, (anything from China would be fakes.)

2) Test 2: check the Contact Us page, if there is no identifying phone# or address forget it, imagine how easily an email alone can be ignored.

3) Search the web for complaints, try Googling: "thesite.com" scam, to see if it's been submitted to fraud site registries, a site under 3 months old may not yet be included even it deserving.

Here are some large respected shoe sites:
Zappos.com (has free shipping and return shipping) did have some bad publicity after their customer database was hacked.
6pm.com ( Zappos owned clearance store)
Onlineshoes.com
Shoebuy.com
Shoemetro.com
eastbay.com (shares facilities with Footlocker)


There are forums that are dedicated to sneakers, which can be educational.
