The angled line at the bottom of the quarter are always partially hidden by the midsole on real ones. I don't know why the fakers don't do it; it doesn't seem like it'd be any extra work, really. What zippers did they put on yours anyway?

they look "real" but they differ from the standard geobasket.
the toebox has the design of the old swoosh dunks.
the "padded stripes" on the back extends all the way around, whereas they normally stop where they connect with the triangle shape design.

it's a bit awkward that there is inconsistency where the white line ends, it goes from going fully into the sole to almost ending before it. but tbh, it pretty much never varies as much as that pic though. the variance is usually between the side with and without the zipper, where the line usually goes deeper on the side with the zipper.
