I wished JB could find the 1988 template for some damn 3s. Low profile isn’t JB’s game, that high rise print on the toe wants to make a statement.

Nah that's what dude said happens a lot in Asia in that long *** post.
And as cheap as Nike is looks like they’d be for saving money on elephant print. LolI wished JB could find the 1988 template for some damn 3s. Low profile isn’t JB’s game, that high rise print on the toe wants to make a statement.
Possible early drop

For the BC3 and JTH, yes. Not for the Free Throw Lines.That already happened
Complaints equal progress. 11’s have changed and are almost true to og. Hope the complaining never stops, keep these companies on they toes.I don’t understand the constant complaining. We aren’t getting any OG templates. None of the shoes that have retrod have been identical to the original as far as 1-13 are concerned.
Get over it.
for EU it did. that's what he's referring to.For the BC3 and JTH, yes. Not for the Free Throw Lines.
You are mistaken if you think this.Complaints equal progress. 11’s have changed and are almost true to og. Hope the complaining never stops, keep these companies on they toes.
This. I have the TB3s 2016, sport blue 3s and compared them to my friends BC3s 2018 and I can see NO DIFFERENCE in the quality of the leather.Just got these in. In my opinion there is very little difference in quality between the 3 of them.
In terms of sizing, the sport blue are a uk8, the true blue are a uk8.5 and the black cement are a uk8. These sizes fit exactly the same.
Ah yeah. I was saying since EU got an early drop, we potentially could.for EU it did. that's what he's referring to.
yep, I hope soAh yeah. I was saying since EU got an early drop, we potentially could.
Supposed hack on the snkrs app... u scribble on the BC3 to reveal the white pair... online people saying UK only, or even fake. There is a video floating aroundSaw this on instagram. Not sure what if it means anything for the US release.
It's not just Asia: There are still a lot of fakes on eBay that come over from Asia.
One of the things they (re-sellers) do in China is...they get a bunch of factory variants (or "Chang Huo" -- which refers to additional factory stock produced without Nike's knowledge), and mix it in with the real stock.
So for example: let's say they bought 20 pairs from the legit retailers. They will break up each of the 20 (left and right shoes) and pair it with a fake. So all 20 right shoes will be paired with 20 fake left shoes. All 20 left shoes will be paired with 20 fake right shoes. The real 20 pairs were purchased at retail, and the "factory variants" or fakes were purchased for under retail (wholesale prices). So now they have a total of 40 pairs to sell and it didn't cost them the full retail cost of 40 pairs. They lowered their cost and because one of the pairs is real, they often use that one for close up pics and etc. If one of the shoppers complain, they will say the other pair is made in a different factory (which may even coincidentally be true) and that the other pair looks fine.

Am I the only one who thinks the retros look better than the OG?
You may know better than me, but you can’t expect people not to vent their frustrations sometimes esp. when there’s a platform for them to do so. You should know better, there was a time (even with the earlier retros) when these products were great and now they’re lackluster. Come on man get with it.You are mistaken if you think this.
From a casual standpoint, I can see that.
