AIR JORDAN 3 BLACK CEMENT - NOVEMBER 23, 2024

[trappedintime]

You've mentioned this thickness thing a few times, and nobody knows what you're talking about.

I saw the WC & BC pics, but still don't know what you're trying to point out.

Might hit up the optometrist. There’s an upper lip on the BC3 elephant print. It’s clear as the day is long it’s not stitched flat or is simply thicker but if you can’t see that I can’t help you

I noticed that too on those BC. Was wondering what was up with that pair.

Compared to the WC 3, that is definitely a cliff toe. You can’t tell me these have that same sleek aerodynamic look that the WC, FR3, or DE’s have.

I’m just hoping my pair don’t look like anything posted in this thread thus far.

It's the same toe shape, it's just curved upward off the ground. That comes from pulling too tight when the factory is stitching and gluing.

You'll see the same thing on the Chicago 2s and then all 2s released after got it right.

Ep height and boldness varies from pair to pair on every 3. Very, VERY different thing from the actual mold which is not the same if these BC’s are the final product.

Then explain how the WC3 got that nice slanted shape we all want and these don’t.

I thought we covered that last week. The 2024 3’s aren’t as tall overall. Not going to have as much of a slant from the toe box (not toe cap) if there’s not as much distance to the top eyelet. Just as the overlapping panel isn’t the same length.

I’ll have to do an overlay in PS for you tomorrow. I’m still suspect of all these pairs we’ve seen so far because even the green glows don’t have that thick upper lip on the toecap EP. You can see that doesn’t exist on the WC3, and it’s not just because of the shape at the end of the toe. It’s the material difference or you’d still see it (even with a flatter shape it’s stitched to).

hopefully easy to attain like the reimagined WC3. Entering a few raffles for sure.

 

[sickickz23]

You can see how much better the wc3s are even by that shot alone

Still in, and like probably for many here, for only 1 pair instead of 2…

 

[ill4eva]

Are you kidding me? Do your homework. That’s the coolkicks owner’s IG name and what he goes by. You can keep YOUR racist BS moving

Is it? Lol. I didn’t know.

 

[Chopsticks]

Still waiting for someone to post a real pair

Can’t unsee it. I’m sorry that shape is laughable considering what we’ve gotten the last 4 years. Out of all the releases of AJ3s that they could’ve done this to they wait until THIS one to change the mold for seemingly the worse. Then went with a super light grey, almost white EP nearly throwing the whole look off. Not trying to be a downer on these but they’re making it hard with each pic that gets shared. I’ve only seen 1-2 decent pairs. And those were barely good compared to WCs. Yeah they’re better than 2018s but that’s not really saying much. I’m holding out hope that foot store pairs are better than this and made from a better factory than whichever one made this early banana batch.

 

[nostalgia94]

Im just not understanding why they cant use the same manufacturing process as the WC3

 

[ill4eva]

Everyone is complaining now, but come release day, y’all gonna be buying pairs from 5-6 different sites so you can get the “perfect pair”. All that work, just to impress some nerds on a message board.

OR....you can post examples and explain clearer the first time instead of being a prick. What makes clear sense in your head might not for others. Now that you've specified, this does not make the overall shape of the shoe different. What we've seen is banana, and a little lip on the toe isn't going to effect the overall banana on the shoe. Do any of us want that lip thing? Of course not but that's not the point regarding the overall shape.

The post that you quoted does explain why it's not slanted. It's curved upward because of the factory pulling it too tight.

When you get your pair bend it down and you'll see it's the same toe on all Jordan 3s from the last 5 years.

 

[vinnuendo]

I think these new joints look good. Toe is still an improvement from 2018, thinner padding and folded over tongue is still a plus. But I wore my '11 and '18 pairs enough, I'm satisfied with only having the '23 white cements.

 

[skyeezy]

just sold my 2018 pair that i wore twice for 220.. hope these '24 joints dont dissapoint

 

[ntva28]

LN3 only!

Me either man. I’m just hoping these aren’t it, or that there’s enough variance that a good pair is relatively attainable. I already sold my 2018’s so I’m in for a pair but it just doesn’t make sense to me why these aren’t being made the same way as the WC3.

 

[ap24]

Y’all think the iron method can save the toe box on these?

 

[Kierris]

I can't wait for Nike to drop official pics.. I'm with Magic33 y'all are getting annoying now. If you believe you've seen real pairs and you don't like them then unsubscribe from the thread. No need to keep repeating yourselves.

 

[Bert.]

I don’t see a difference between these and 2018

My pair has the EP a lot lower on the toe box


But what’s funny is both my pairs of the WC reimagined have higher EP on the toe unlike most posted on here

Bought both from NDC HMMM
