The III, especially white/cement, is my favorite model of all time, tied with the XI, going back to when I first got into basketball and shoes in 1989. I missed getting a pair of OGs. I missed the ‘94 retro because by the time I realized it had happened, they were gone. Got the 2003 WC retro, but wasn’t satisfied by it. Every retro thereafter sucked, so I never bought another single pair. I had given up hope of ever getting a good III. And then this AMM pair happened. It has satisfied a 32-year want for me. Great materials, great shape, great colorway. I really love white/gray shoes.
I can rock these to the office … to anywhere … with virtually anything. I will sell my DS sz 11, so I only really have four pairs LOL
Overkill on number of pairs? Probably. But at this stage of my life when I can afford it, my philosophy is: strike now, figure it out later. You can always sell them later if you end up not wearing them enough to need multiple pairs. Zero regret on my end.
