Do you reapply acetone on the spots that you touch up?

I acetoned the whole shoe before any paint was reapplied I'm assuming that those red parts are still acetoned. I might reacetone the toe box area but right now I'm just reapplying where the cracks are. The paint concoction I made is a mix of black matte and duller finisher. I'm repainting the parts with regular black leather paint then I'll reapply layers with my concoction.

I painted mine black too. My problem is that the white midsole keeps chipping.

Yep! I can't wait for the fire reds. I'm copping 2 pairs of every Nike Air OG colorway of III's they release in this new mold.

My customized RCs still look good but I've probably only worn them 5-6 times. It's worth it to me. The 2018 BC 3s are horrible.

I’m sick knowing I was born just a few years too late to experience these. We’ll probably never see anything close.

I feel you, i painted mine too and its starting to crack more. About to leave it as it is Chi to LA SB's style.I wore them a few times and just wore them like I generally wear sneakers. It looks good but they require touch ups. I'm reluctant to do that because I put in mad work on them to keep reapplying paint. The black on the rest of the shoe is immaculate though.

If JB ever gave us this as a retro, Id pay $400 easily.

This is what all these newcomers don’t know when they think our complaints about the modern retros are just whining to whine

Most pictures I've seen of OGs don't even come close to that shape.

Wild y'all even liked that post.
The WCs definitely look way too bulky. The BC3s are closer to that IG post but it still looks like a sloppily built shoe.

Miss my 2001’s. The last good retro of the Black/Cement’s. Nike Air is nice but shape and materials used are just as important to me.

Yeah the next rendition gotta have less elephant print. Every time I come in this thread I get the urge to sell my DS 2018 pair.
Then I realize that 3 is such a dope shoe. I’m on my 4th pair since 2018. Literally wore pair 1 everyday for two weeks because of how versatile they are.
