Air Jordan 3 Tinker Black Cement July 27, 2019

[Ritchie X Rich]

On a long-shot around 7pm after work tnite, I called the FTA in Philly & asked if they had any pairs in stock- dude said they had one pair of 10s (my size). So I stopped by the store just now before they closed and they still had them. I caved...but glad I did.
I assume they were a pair someone returned. As I checked out, he said they just got the pair back in 10 mins before I called.

If you're in Philly, no need to panic. We are lucky to have all these stores. All the Villas (and we have about like 10 of them in the city lol) received shipment on these Tinker 3s yesterday and today go on their specific IG villa account like Center city, Chestnut, South St, etc. You'll see they posted they got them, Ubiq had some on shelves today and Lapstone and Hammer had a bunch from leftover unclaimed pairs the other day as well. Just like the Clay Green 1s they all received late shipments at every single Villa today but everyone pretty much made their rounds around town to grab most of those. I love this shoe, but in terms of resell value they're bricks in this area just too many of them.

No stamp on box lid. But i did notice the qc stamp on the shoe trees...that is odd but its there.

thanks!

Almost as bad as yours, cant be mad when an NT brother oop’d em for me. Glad I got a pair!

 

[kg21]

Yes. This is exactly what I and my bank account meant lol

My apologies for misinterpreting.

Anyone know of any good spots in Florence, Italy to scoop Js? I’m here for a week and tried asking around haha people look at me like I’m not from here (which I’m not lol)...

I believe Backdoor Bottega is in Bologna. Also there is a Space23 in Bologna. That's like the next main train station (Bologna Centrale) over from Firenze SMN if you ever head north on the train. It stops there.

I am really impressed and happy with the ones I got from Nike. The leather is softer than the BC3s, about the same as FTL3s.

I’m sorry for those who got messed up pairs. Mine had some black stuff on the toe box but it washed off. I didn’t plan on buying these but am glad that I did. I think it’s crazy that these are going for $225 in my size on Stock X. I have a feeling that these will spike in value as people realize that these will most likely never be re-released and have a cool backstory.

Wanted to throw my grey laces from the Jordan 1 Shadows in these, but they're too long. I feel like a nice pair of grey laces would make these look much better. Wish I had a pair of red laces laying around.

Am I the only one that plans on rocking these with the Tinker hang tag still attached to the shoe?

Looks like I’ll be goin the StockX route for these. Might as well while prices are low.

what does NRG stand for anyway?

"energy"?

Nike Research Group, I believe.
or Not Really GR.

These shoes are nice . The $250 was worth the convenience of picking em up locally and getting to inspect the pair in person . I love the deals to be had on StockX but that fear of the unknown pair is never fun

These are great in hand. I'm always hesitant to unDS the first time, but will do so Monday! I would say the leather is very respectable; about the same as the LEFT shoe of my BC3. My right shoe on the BC3 was not as soft, but anyone else other than me or fellow NTer collectors, would likely never notice.

I don't care how available these are; they're sweetness, and the swoosh looks amazing along with the NA. I like the fact that this is probably a short-lived rendition, and could very well never retro in the future, so it's something special despite what the resale market thinks. I'm not really into the brown versions we've been seeing, but not ruling out getting another Tinker version if a good colorway comes up. Given my collection and usage, doubling up makes no sense, so it would need to be diff colorway that we haven't seen yet, and be attainable for close to retail.

Okay so i had a pair cancelled, a chance to re buy it yesterday and about to receive them tomorrow! You play good on this one Nike B )

 

[126006]

Mine are waiting for me at home. Can't wait to see what the fuss is all about.

These are cool. Birds eye view is dope as hell and the red heel tab sets this off really nice but I think the grey rand is holding these back. If that was white I’d love these.

Fit is the same as BC3. They slip right on which is really nice. Don’t think they’re as comfy as the BC3s but it’s been a while so I could be wrong. Good shoe but can’t justify it with the Katrina’s next week sothese will go back.
