Air Jordan III OG Black Cement returns Feb 2018 - Nike Air on the back

[SUSHI AND GRITS]

Shape looks great, but the mismatched EP's look horrible. Stop it.

They’re gonna dry and look exactly the same as the normal EP tint once dry. I’ve done it to 2003 white cement 3s before. It’s wet from the wet towel right now. I will post final result pics tomorrow.

Man, tuck that tongue liner in and its everything I could ask for in a bc3

thanks for doing this bro

If you wear them around please try to keep us updated on the wearability. Im also wondering if the shape will stick.

 

[tonytobacco]

Im getting excited about this. I thought that 3 hole in my collection would never get filled.

Still drying from the water.

Iron that toebox!!

JB needs to take notes. This shape is everything!

Gentry is probably mad about this

It shrunk that much just from steam? Will the shape hold?

The shape stays the same. I’ve done this to multiple pairs of Js, Air Maxes, Skylons, etc. Only shoes I don’t do this with are my Vans because it’s unnecessary.

Hopefully this goes viral and JB starts shaping their product proper from the jump.

Make sure the cloth/t-shirt is wet every time you place it over the shoes before ironing.

 

[HellRazor1978]

Def gonna try this once I get a second pair!!

So does ironing actually shrink the material? Or is it purely looks? Will it go back to its original form

Will the EP dry back to a normal color?

it will dry and return to normal, happens when you clean em as well

I meant if the overall shape of the toebox remains slim like the after effect, or is it a temporary alteration

 

[tonytobacco]

thats jawdropping

It’s not temporary.

 

[tonytobacco]

f'ing WOW man, Im speechless

So down for this.

 

[lamekilla]

Think I’ll try it on my ‘11 pair and if all goes well I’ll do it to the ‘18. Amazing

 

[Gordonson]

Some of these responses to a basic toebox ironing are hilarious

That said, it didn't even cross my mind to do it to these; I'll have to. Looks way better in my opinion.

 

[jbeezy95]

As much as I don't like the little elf shoe slant shape that they came with, I definitely would not be doing that to my kicks. I'd rather buy something like sneaker shields to even out the toebox while I'm wearing them.

 

[rainking]

Now I wish I had a pair, too

So, er ... suddenly thinking I need to do this to my WC 4s ... holy smokes.

 

[D_eezus]

Can’t wait until may

 

[forest hills]

Might hafta iron my pair as well now because the toebox being slanted really does make a huge difference on these.
