No one for raffles. Have a feeling these will sit for a bit.

I thought the sweaters were going to go quickly. That makes it the 6th straight release to sit on shelves. BUT something is telling me this is going to be different. If they do sit, I'm def doubling tho!

Appreciate the pics @AirThompson

Same story I got from the young cat at FTL where I got a ticket earlier.. he suggested I should pass on these and get foams or something. That these were ugly because they have glitter on the midsole and the grey on the back is too light. I said oh, so they're more like the original? And he said he didn't know how the OGs looked, just the last ones that came out.

Yep... Might just do a release date walk in after all. The weather has been horrible in North Texas lately and I just can't sell myself on driving around in this mess for raffles. I'm taking my chances.

Just got my 3 pair delivered. And I'm loving the quality on these!

Good luck to everybody who plans on coping.

To those who have the 2015 pair in hand, how's the sizing?  I wear a 9 in most jordans but size down to 8.5 for III-VIII.  Do these run a tad big like previous VIIIs?

I don't have them but the best thing to do is to go to any shoe store and try on the three peat 8's

The three peats are leather so they'll run a half size bigger than durabuck. All my durabuck Nikes run true to size.

Go with a size 9

I could understand if a shoe yellows overtime but durabuck shoes are tanks


Hopefully the paint doesn't crack like the 2013 retro 8s. Two pairs is enough for me

you must not own anything with Durabuck. Especially in 8s, it easily wears off on the straps and it looks so bad when it creases. Durabuck also gets so dusty which makes it lighter over time and is much harder to clean than Nubuck. Nubuck is frowned upon but it's thicker and doesn't CREASE as easy.

Some places ARE doing them next week, but all of the places that's doing early raffles are not doing them next week. Atleast here anyway. Just put in a few more a minute ago and they all said they're going to make all of the calls this week...
