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

[illhistorical]

You’d hate me bro. I rocked a pinstripe Jordan jersey with some black cement 33 lows . To be fair only reason I got the pinstripe is because a homie let it go for a price I couldn’t say no to & those were the only bred colorway shoes I had on hand.

I'll allow it. Whatever gets the later models on people's feet.

Few yrs from now new thread new BC3s for yr 20something Nike/Jordan with a new gimmick and by that time EP and shape will be right and will be here to go back and forth with what's wrong and right

That black/gold womens IIIs that released in October was there latest gimmick and I believe they had decent shape (but not ep). I would love for a JB employee to convince us that was a better business move then retroing these again or true blues. The two biggest troll jobs of the year was that and black taxi XII (even though quality is good according to this board). Looks like next years biggest troll/gimmick is Mars for Her.

Sent one of my pairs of Black Gold 3's to SmokeCity Kicks to get them turned into Black Cement 3's. The Shape is fantastic, the EP is really low, the leather is really nice, they are going to look sweet!!!

Turning a newer pair into BC3s was the only option for me. I'm not really as obsessive in the details as many are. I couldn’t wear these though. No way.

 

[truenike81]

I'm definitely digging the og shape on recent retros and we all know new shape on BC3 people are going to double and quadruple up

Sold my DS pair a couple weeks back. Thought I had a crazy high ask up but I guess not. Couldn’t ship them out fast enough.

This release will quickly become irrelevant imo. It’s a wearable bc3 and that’s all it has going for it. They’ll be back soon enough in way better form.

I still cant believe they dropped these and then proceeded to fix the shape basically right afterwards.

Which 3s that they start fixing right after these?

I’m thinking the all red pair but might be wrong

unc 3s

 

[DB Cooper]

There was no reason we had to endure years of horrendous shaped 3's. Or any other model for that matter.

 

[willy156]

when do you guys think JB will retro these again with the better shape we've been getting the past few years

Impossible to know. Usually it's 7-10 years, but look at the Black Infrared 6....2014 then 2019. Frankly I was shocked it was so soon. And I'd argue those versions were not as different than a new BC3 would be over the '18 retro.

unc 3s

No, I think the Chi Unites (all red) were the first ones, they were February 2020.

I remember looking this up, there may have even been a shoe before the Chi Unites in late 2019.

 

[truenike81]

I say 26 27 the next retro of BC3s

 

[truenike81]

If I had it my way I'll take all 4 of the OG cw of 3s all yr long how they do AF1s just available when you need a new pair

yup this is the pair, I remember seeing this video and was blown away:

 

[skala]

just watched, absolutely crazy

they came out fire

 

[85ROY]

I can watch videos like that all day long. Well I can also do the same for people washing/detailing some barn find vehicle after 20 years or fixing up some overgrown landscaping that's been neglected, so take that into account.
