There's a definite difference. Honestly I think 4s are better.

That had nothing to do with his question. He asked about how they fit, not your preference.
IMO they fit like the IV's, pretty much true to size.

As stated before in other threads this is the shoes that started it all for me just like many others on here in 03. Just something I was thinking about and think I noticed. THE JORDAN III MIGHT OUT OF ANY JORDAN LOOK THE MOST DIFFERENT IN SHAPE AND MATERIAL CUTS THAN THE OG. Everyone on here bashes retros for quality shape materials etc, but I dont see much of that than the paint chipping. And I am not really talking about the quality of the materials anyways. I am more talking about the shape and cut of the materials.
I am not bashing the shoes I am just pointing something out I noticed and find interesting. It seems to me that the elephant print has grown in size since the OG and the black print is thicker. I think this is due to how elephant print is so associated with Jordan. The way anything with a Jordan sign sells well anything with elephant print sells well and that is because of the Jordan III.
Now it looks like the cut of the elephant print on these looks smaller than recent retros, making it look more like the OG to me. Take a look at some pics of MJ wearing in 87 and you will see what I mean.
Sorry this post is so jumbled/unclear/not concise but its late and I just wanted to get the observation out/spark up some convo. I find it interesting how critical people are of the shape and cut of materials on Jordans especially the classics but not on the III's for some reason. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST LEAST BASHED SHOES FOR SHAPE AND MATERIAL CUT WHEN I THINK IT HAS SOME OF THE MOST DRASTIC CHANGES.

I haven't wore my true blue's yet.. After watching the CDP ones crack like crazy I don't know what to say. I'll post up pics once I get my sample pair in and show you guys if it cracks after wearing it.

These will probably fit like the retro 3s within the past few years (Cool Greys, Flips, Fire Reds) which means they should fit TTS.
03s however run about .25-.5 size big.

I'll take a pair. These are one of the best J's off all time. I know quality wont be the same, but everything changes over time.
They look good in my opinion.
