From the images above, I can already tell you that they will crack immediately. They have same the painting and texture that the CDP's had, and those didn't last me 15 wears before I had to sell them. I won't fall for that again. I don't even care if they had the Nike Air and OG style box, if these things don't last a month long what's the point of buying them?

The 03's were dyed, not painted. That's the disparity in the two.

cracking i can handle, but the og's didnt straight peel off like these recent pairs.  i think that's the part that most people are talking about.  like animal thug said we should at least get more than a months worth of wear before there's any paint issues.

None of my 3's have cracked yet....... I don't know why.... Will definatly keep my eye out though.... Either way I been waiting for these like I was waiting for the carmines .. Hopefully JB will get this resolved soon

 

[jordansneakerhead23]

They need to fix that paint cracking asap.

I agree, I hooped in my 03's for a whole season before they started to crack towards the end. I'm not sure if i'll even deal with these knowing how they will do. I shouldn't have to prepare to re-paint kicks before I even buy them

 

[addicted2thashoe]

I highly doubt it.

This is the 23rd anniversary of the IIIs release, hence the special packaging.

 

[abstrakt]

Did someone post these?

 

[yungone350]

i've never had paint issues with my 3's unless i scuffed them on accident, I really think its because i wear my shoes that they never fall aprt on me

 

[mikey23]

2 pairs is a must. 3's are my favorite of all time..

 

[mr718]

Sad to say but I'm sold on the box alone

SN: Why do all those boxes look like they were smuggled out of the factory in someones crotch?

 

[abstrakt]

^^ Because all those boxes were smuggled out of the factory in someone's crotch.

 

[memphissfinest]

^^^LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[senor chang]

People with these already and have worn them.... Do they feel like the 03 or do they feel like the recent retro 3's??

 

[downyboy]

box is a nice extra touch.

..so we can pretty much expect the same release packaging for the IV's in 2012, and the V's in 2013, so on and so on.....hmmm.

My dude BinYe stays with the lulz...

I'm confused as to when these are dropping. JB's official site says 1/22, the Air Jordan release thread says February, and this thread says Spring. Which one is it?

 

[yungone350]

release date is next year so will have plenty of time to figure out where to cop

yep, same with da yeezys, hence why those kicks don't crack either.
