Anyone has a DS 11 and needs a 10.5 hmu so we can swap it out...
Is there any way you can trim that elephant print height down? If you're able to do that I'll buy them from youAnyone has a DS 11 and needs a 10.5 hmu so we can swap it out...

Ended up letting my pair go as well. I couldn't believe how badly these aged. The leather became so dry and glittered, even some leather balmer wasn't that effective. Not to mention the NA on the back was already discolored somehow.

Yep! Same thing here. Even my hang tag was piss yellow.
It was a bit tough but yeah the new mold blows them away.

Agreed, mine are full beaters now. They just look so bad compared to the new mold 3s that I said f*** it. They get thrown on all the time with no s***s given.No complaints here. BC3’s age like fine wine when used as beaters

I used a leather balmer/conditioner which I bought from Angelus Direct. I'm sure there are others you can use. From my understanding, the leather is dried out, which causes the glitter. Happy to be told otherwise if I'm wrong here. I started using it on my worn TB III's as well.

Been wearing these into the ground since I copped last year. Not gonna lie, wasn't a huge fan despite being one of the most popular sneakers of all time; they felt a little too tight and pinched my toes the first few wears. But after breaking them in, coupled with their universal wearability, they're constantly in my rotation. Sometimes I can't make up my mind what to wear so I just grab these. Can't beat em with a pair of cargos too

I'll admit, the new mold makes these look clownish.
But they still get the point across wit a fit, so I gotta keep em for now.

New mold looks much better, but these still look good. Can't imagine not having a BC3 in the rotation.

All I can say is "wear your shoes"! I had a 2nd pair DS stored for when my son grew into them. They started getting the glitter. I cleaned them up (easily) and got rid of them. My daily pair has NO yellowing or glitter; they look DS with some natural wear creasing...perfection.

I vaguely recall the Black/Cement III were re-released sometime in the '90s, clearly way before the retro market became significant in the shoe game. I just can't remember what year. Wasn't it 1994? If I'm not mistaken, I believe 1994 was the first time they rehashed Jordans when Michael Jordan was retired from basketball.
And I honestly wasn't into the III at all. I was actually not into Jordans anymore at that time the Black/Cement III re-released in the '90s. I got the original Infrared VI in 1991, then I lost interest in Jordans until I got back into them with the Black/Red XI in 1996.
I can tell this is a '90s picture because of the way these guys are dressed. Especially with Method Man having a Walker Wear accessory on his head because that brand made by Jam Master Jay of Run DMC & April Walker had expensive a%$ jeans that only existed during the '90s. I only saw rappers wearing it in photos, perhaps because of the price and lack of availability in stores. I think that brand was more common on the east coast than west coast. So what is the year of the Black/Cement III that Method Man is wearing? It sure ain't the 1988 version.

Yep, they released the two main colors in 1994 and then they sat. And sat. And sat.

Same thing happened with the 1's and 2's.
JB was dropping nothin but OG classics and cats took it for granted.
Now we get an OG every now and then, but we gotta suffer through a million throwaways beforehand
