3 statements, each one just kept getting worse

Truth hurts

 

[g-time]

The “made them with canvas on purpose because they didn't want to give you too good of a shoe,” is the line that got me.

 

[SonofSal]

*enter Will Smith slap gif here*

 

[engineer]

Definitely agree they made them canvas on purpose to make them worse. They’re all about collabs and not allowing their own staff access to good materials and/or logos.

 

[ZKO_24_7]

I think repelling gonna make this worse. I would just spot clean

What’s bad with repel on these?

 

[g-time]

nah. it’s been reported a good amount of retros this year are going to use canvas. This isn’t about “Making them worse on purpose. “

It's not about making them worse on purpose, you know that for sure?

How many Jordan retros are made of canvas this year versus other materials? A VERY low percent.

All we're basing what we're saying is off of 20 years of Jordan retro history, this company has a track record.

Any designer or sneakerhead is going to think leather first when they think of a Jordan 3.

 

[g-time]

So as a company, you’re not allowed to change it up and try something different because 20 years says we can’t? That means you should do away with retro+’s as well right? Because the OGs is what got us here. That’s silly talk.

The point is, why switch it up on THIS shoe? There’s been so many horrible colorways they could’ve gone crazy with but they finally land on a clean design and they torpedo it with canvas. It just doesn’t make any sense other than doing it on purpose. Why didn’t the AMM have canvas if it’s such a great choice of material?

 

[g-time]

They land on a clean design that everyone likes yet torpedoed it because it’s a material YOU don’t like? That’s silly.

This is not the first, nor the last Jordan that’ll switch up materials. Just because it’s not the materials you wanted, doesn’t mean it was torpedoed.

 

[engineer]

Haven’t seen anyone say they think the canvas makes the shoe better, only worse.

 

[g-time]

Same could be said for saying they torpedoed these as well.

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

Well I'm about to prove you wrong again.

I say they torpedoed them as well.

 

[g-time]

Well I'm about to prove you wrong again.

I say they torpedoed them as well.

That would be the only time you’ve proven me wrong, but with the three statements you made earlier, I’m not surprised you’re being silly again.

Don't waste your time man, some people will never listen to reason.

I think everyone knows JB screws us around on the materials and details we really want

Who the hell out there was asking for more canvas Jordan 3s?

These done with leather would have been .

 

[g-time]

Would they be nice would leather? Absolutely. Not really disputing that. The idea they purposely torpedoed a shoe because they used canvas is what’s silly. That’s what you’re trying to reason with.

They already did. Called shoe of the 2021 year

 

[abovthehorizon]

What triggered y’all?

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

Trump

 

[PremioBinSoleFlyUnion]

Do you think the upcoming Canvas IVs will be more sought after because of this release?

 

[slaughterx]

probably... but not by me.

 

[rainking]

If these were leather they'd be one of the greatest 3s of all-time.

Maybe, if they had NA on the heel.

Definitely a better colorway than the AMM3. These are like an aged WC3.

I dunno. AMMs are close to a perfect shoe for me. I love the colors. That damn canvas, though, makes it difficult to tell. If they were leather, I assume they’d be white and not the color of this canvas. So it would be different overall. But either way, it would be a sick shoe.
Personally, I’m among the crew that just can’t do canvas. Zero interest.

 

[Jakk55]

NGL I need a pair of 3's bad and these Joints look great , but I just can't do that canvas material, ****s get dirty just by looking at them. And forget about trying to clean em afterwards , need an associates in sneaker restoration b....

Have any of you ever owned Chuck Taylors? I never had trouble keeping them clean.

1. It's the red for me, it kind of makes them look like an aged WC3. Red on Jordans brings back the Chicago Bulls look.

2. On the AMM, I didn't like that big-quilted satin sock-liner.

3. And I say white leather or cream leather would still make this Muslin shoe better.

When I said greatest 3s of all-time, I just meant retros. I would never put these ahead of any OGs.
I think this is definitely a top 5 retro colorway of all-time. Just colorway though, not material choice.
