If tyre the same mold as the true blues I'm going up a size again. Those are very narrow.

A fellow NTer who gets hands on things early sent me this. Says extactly like true blues. Same elephant print color, mold, insole, etc.
Yup, pass. The vinyl they used on the lower/non-tumbled leather portion felt so cheap on the true blues as well as the rest of the "leather" I easily passed on those, these look exactly the same.
Welp, JB can keep their "exclusivity", I'm good.

Maybe it's just me ( maybe nostalgia...first pair I ever spent my own money on), or the aging of the shoe... but the 1994s still look the best to me.

Nah, it aint just you. The 94s are my favorites, too. We had that discussion a few pages back, lol.

It should be under $295 CAD. For example, the White & Orange Gatorade 6's that just dropped were retail $190USD & retailing for $255CAD. The All green 6's that will drop on the 30th will retail in the states for $225USD and they will be retailing for $300CAD. So if these black cement 3's (which I will 100% be copping, they look sick). will be $200USD they'll probably be somewhere aound $275CAD.

‘94’s definitely the ones I mess with the most as well.
Not surprised that we’re essentially getting the TB’s from last year. Anything else would have been a Christmas Miracle...

88’s and 94’s looks great!
Is Nike/JB goin to actually put decent leather on the BC3’s like the WC’s??

I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little disappointed. Especially after seeing the shape on the Michigan PE's. As I said earlier, I'll reserve final judgement...

I can see myself getting 2 pair. My 2011’s would become beaters, a clean pair at that.

If the EP is tan then I’m definitely sticking with my 01’s, that would just ruin them.A fellow NTer who gets hands on things early sent me this. Says extactly like true blues. Same elephant print color, mold, insole, etc.

The more I look at that comparison pic, the EP is just cut to small/low/slim & dark on the 88's (and maybe just my pair as a GS size) but as soon as that EP got wet... it smeared into just a flat gray, I was devasted when mine got wet. They were ruined instantly...one good thing I can say about this newer EP is it's a lot more durable... that might be it though.

Figured this would be what we'd get. No way were they going to change the mold to how it was decades ago.
Leather on these still look like oil spills and I just cannot get with the toe/box shape. I wouldn't say these are' trash' but I'm all set with these.
No thanks.

Glad so many on here are passing. I’ve never owned a single pair of BC3s, so ain’t picky, I’m happy to finally get even ONE pair

Exactly. I fully understand if you grew up with these shoes and want them to be true to the original.
But I was born in 1992. These shoes hold zero significance to me nostalgia wise. They just look pleasing to the eye.
Getting an 88 or 94 pair ain't an option for me. So these will have to do.
