AIR JORDAN 3 BLACK CEMENT - NOVEMBER 23, 2024

Would love a "shock drop" tomorrow so I can get this out of the way. Been missing my BCs since unloading them a few month's back in anticipation of these. I knew these would be better than those event though I did enjoy wearing my '18s; one of very few actual beater shoes in my collection.
 
fomo is real, ‘shock drop’ some inventory a week early is a great business strategy
 
I had to get a half size up on the last 2016 retroed and those fit perfect….

But if these fit anything like the current last releases like the Reimaginged WC3s or the last FR3s retro then I’m for sure just going TTS with these 🤙🏽
 
The thread previously discussed sizing. I recall they fit like all recent 3s EXCEPT WC Reimagined fit half size bigger than all other recent 3s. So if you want that fit, you'd probably need to go half size up; otherwise it's TTS.
 
I miss events like this around releases honestly. Kinda boring these days with just a SNKRS drop or raffle.
I'm the exact opposite. Standing in a line for a mass produced consumer product is in no way "community". Not to mention that historically these huge lineups have resulted in violence and robbery. There's nothing even remotely authentic about lining up in front of a pizza place to grab $240 shoes.
 
I’d be wearing them right now if I could get my hands on them today :lol: hopefully we get a shock drop tomorrow
 
I still have 2 DS pairs of 2016 BC3s somewhere in the shoe room 😂… time sure flies… where is our AJ 1 High Breds retro at JB?!?
 
Def believe this event was brokered by Clark kent.

I never knew about Scarr's Pizza until spoke about the shop and the AF1 Low.

Dope event. Scarr's Pizza is so good. Especially the Hot Boy flavor (the hot honey with the peppers and pepperoni)
 
Gonna be very interesting after this era and the next run of retros. Like how will they improve em. Still kinda surprised they didn't make these vintage looking or pull a reimagined move and toss some suede instead of leather.


Maybe 1 day they will put the jumpman back on there for a throwback lmao mark my words in 10 to 15 years itll happen

They were going to make these like that but people started complaining as soon as it was announced lol. Never even leaked a prototype just the word “reimagined” had a lot of people online crying about them. Few days later they came back and said they were just going to make them OG. And they’re still going to sit 😂

I just assume the shoes they’ve reimagined end up getting regular retros next and the other OGs they didn’t reimagine will get some alt treatment even if the reimagined series/title dies. Rinse and repeat.

Good I'm glad they going to sit some of yall act like that's a bad thing
Point went over your head smart guy lol. Most of the people that complain about this and that have no intention of buying the shoe anyway.

Yeah fr I can see that. If we live long enough might not even be a change at all next time. The upcoming aqua 8s are gonna be 1 to take a look at. The 2015s were almost perfect.

Not to derail but the 12s getting updated in 2025 got me 👀
