Mears was actually able to photo match this to an exact Getty Image photo.

Was actually a style match but seller wording was misleading. Question was posed on ebay auction.

Re: Photo matched Dykstra 86 WS cleats
What's the point of stating 1986 WS style matched if Dykstra worn these same type of cleats during the 1985-89 season. I was able to find better photos of Dykstra wearing these same style cleats on getty images for 87,88, etc.
It only give a seller opportunity to state it may have been used during the 86 WS.
I don't agree with approach.

Re: Photo matched Dykstra 86 WS cleats
The MEARS Letter of Opinion has a "Leap Of Faith" level of 0. Their comments on a no provenance item is:"THE METS WORE BLUE SHOES FROM 1985-89. (What an opening line). "GETTY IMAGES VERIFIES...DYKSTRA WORE PONY SHOES..."(I feel a lot better now). The math of their thinking doesn't equal authentic. How can the words,"attributed to"+"no provenance"="authentic"?
