Or we just like talking about shoes.

 

[doublemesh96]

Probably gotta wait 40 years for a decent incarnation of certain jordans

 

[SNEAKEATER_619]

I’ll probably get stoned for saying this but, again, they’re just shoe- actually never mind I am not going to open Pandora’s box.

I think they look good. I will definitely be buying a pair. That’s just me though.

I’m not going to miss out on a pair just so I can try to be a martyr that won’t even get noticed by the company I’m boycotting. SOMEONE is going to buy all these 3s, I might as well get my pair too.

 

[strictlystyles]

Can somebody hit me up when the shirts come out? i have 4 pairs of the last cement release plus I got 2 pairs of OG's last year so im over it, but I REALLY WANT THOSE TWO SHIRTS. whos sellin?

 

[tonytobacco]

I like the way he tried to rally the thread into boycotting the release lol. We're probably not even a fourth of the purchasing population. In for a pair.

Everyone in here complaining about leather quality and ep...you know you are all gonna end up getting them anyway right?

Stop lying to yourselves

just speak for yourself sir. only yourself.

 

[tonytobacco]

One of the few that truly gets it.

Obviously boycotting is not gonna happen and Nike wasn’t embarrassed enough by the tb3 quality issues. Plenty of people in here somehow keep defending those and saying they were acceptable so I can see why Nike continues to pay zero attention to detail.

I appreciate you continuing to bring up these issues even if others are tired of hearing it.

If the air Max 1 anniversary reshape never happened I probably wouldn't care so much. But unfortunately for Nike the cat has been let out of the bag and we now know they can do things right. So then what's their problem? That's what I want to know at the end of the day. There are like 5 models Nike has that they should take the utmost pride in. And as we round out the last one remaining, it gets mistreated like a red headed step child and left outside in the cold for a wolf like me to come tear apart in the night. Looking at these everyday will only remind me that the cut so many corners with them. I don't think I can do it. As of now I'm pretty sure it's a pass for me.

I'd rather buy bred toes and custom them into Breds or black tongues or spend money on building the perfect BC3 over time off of spare parts I find on eBay. I'm good on these though. This isn't the look I'm going for.

Well 2018 has just started, so I guess this thread is back to its usually "petty" self prior to release

These will be good for a donor NA tab and midsole if you’re restoring 94s tbh. Nike throwing you a bone...look on the bright side

 

[nt09]

guess im part of the 1% thats passing

"what you think you look like wearing retro 3s versus what you actually look like wearing retro 3s."

 

[woody23]

This release feels a whole lot like 2011. I remember everyone complaining about how bad those were too.

2011 ones were just as crappy as everyone said and i quad copped anyway. paint cracks after 1-3 wears like tf?
Im just not dumb enough to re cop this time. im straight. If i can find for 160 or so i might i wont lie about that but not 200$

Nothing has ever changed. Those were terrible.

 

[Remy LeBeau]

Yall care way too much about a shoe you don't have to buy.

 

[donjuan513]

The leather is super soft on these.

 

[djpaul23sabong]

I think complaints are fair and people need to respect that. Some people take what they are given each year not caring. Nothing wrong with that. Others have expectations and are detail buffs. That’s fine too. I wouldn’t want to be in a thread or forum where everyone just praises anything without critique. I’m guessing everyone is an adult in here, and adults respect opinions and views different than theirs.

You don’t look cooler complaining about complainers.

And Jordan Brand does in fact put more effort into the build of the jordan 1 than they do every other retro.

preach it!

better be after those cardboard TBs

 

[noblekane]

we get an exact release date yet? bout to go two sizes up this time

 

[djpaul23sabong]

this whole exchange

But seriously, I’m sure some pairs won’t have high ep just like with the true blue, my pair had ep just like 3s from before 2016

Some didn’t

i want those on the pic!

 

[d dot 23]

I get it and agree that the 3 and most of the retro line could use a improvement but the 11 was in way more of a need for an upgrade. But again I agree since it seems that the OG mold is the new norm for the 11, the BC 3 would the 3 to step their game up. All that said I'm N 4 1 pair.

 

[AIR J XIII]

There was a time in this forum when people were told to stop complaining because Nike Air was NEVER coming back...

 

[RustyShackleford]

I used to have a pair of King Flex Aviators.

Won't eem lie, he almost got my young naive self for a bottle of his struggle cologne

Only one of my homeboy's roasting saved my ***
