Though the shape and elephantPrint looked fine, the oily shiny tumbled leatherAnd the weak comfort feel made me skipOn these and rather spent my money onThe aj2011.I still have my 2001 trueblues and now jbManages to make the black paint on the Midsole look glossy like patent. Seems likeJb does not want the core sneakerheadsSpending money on them.

I've worn them about 5-7 times and they still look brand new, literally. There aren't any creases and the paint on the midsoles are actually holding up, at least for now.

I hope that these are the same way because I'm going to wear them a lot, so I can rest my '01 retros for a little bit.

I Hear you on the on giving the 01's a rest. Mine have gone through some restoration work (Painting of mid-soles, Contact cement to keep the upper attached to the mid-sole), but if I must say so myself they look pretty damn good! People ask me about em ALL the time, but I can feel that they are ready to be preserved and displayed more than they are ready to go another 50+ wears. So, I'm hoping that the quality on these blk/cements will be like the white/cement's because I like wearing the blk/cmts...Just don't want to kill my 01's. And btw,  IMO, the TB's.....SUCK! I mean, I wear them, but I damn near kick rocks in them while doing so. They still look good, but the materials just make them look/feel like rigid cardboard boxes.

I figure of the Stealth III's seem to be of decent quality, the Black/Cements could as well...Fingers crossed!!

Great pick up.
 
Tumbled leather looks waay better than the white cements! Looks like real leather. OMG... is JB upgrading their materials?? LOL

I'm not really the type to double up (chaos kobe vi's were my first and only), but I feel the need to do so with these. Might even triple up, and cop one early and two on RD. Pics above look
