Jordan III REIMAGINED “White Cement” -March 11th 2023

[jordanhead718212]

I will laugh so hard if they finally get the elephant print right after all these years. That alone will make most of the thread turn and ignore the reimagined part, I guarantee it.

Now slated for March 11, 2023.

Warn others before posting potentially offensive content.

The devolution of the greatest Air Jordan is hard to take.

When I hear people complaining about shoes not looking like a shoe made 34 years ago.

 

[headdetective]

Even worse when they complain about a mock up

 

[rainking]

og specs my ***

Og ep, height, shape and materials or nuiiin! Naa meean!?

They've proven over and over again that their definition of "OG specs" is basically just an OG colorway with Nike Air branding.

In for 1, but I will still continue to reconstruct my 03s with a Nike Air back tab

 

[rbk93]

Let’s just hope these aren’t hard to cop. But I’m in retail or resale.

 

[dipsetgeneral]

Size 12 please.

It was a general statement. Until recently, we hadn't seen anything resembling the original since '88.

In case it needed to be said, the 'only a mockup' argument only works with unknowns. Everyone knows what these sneakers look like, but how they'll look remains to be seen. Regardless of color placement, the sneaker is the sneaker, which was my point.

You get an E for effort and T for nice try.

Whole lotta crying in these kinda threads when pics come out, and dudes wanna say hire people who really love sneakers to get it right. Whatever that means.

what are we supposed to be reimagining here? that the cement 3 originally looked dirty and dingy?

The only thing I reimagine is that these clowns didn't jack up so many retro versions in the first place.

they don't want you to remember getting the original and having them in hand nice and white and fresh

they want you to remember how they looked after a couple months of beating on them

I dont care for a little yellowing. I expect that. But I hope they dont pre crack anything on the shoe.

Ya they hyped up the whole “OG specs” thing on the fire red 4s and there was nothing changed/improved on them besides fixing the tongue.

And to the people at JB, they nailed it lol.

They said the same thing about the playoff 12s

I am dreading seeing what they do to these. The way they did the Chicagos are terrible. I will take some yellow but that cracked **** is a no. I just do not see anything "reimagined" about it. You cant reimagine an aged shoe into today and it make sense. Why would you? JB selling fake vintage shoes now? Is that it?

If you really think the Chicagos are terrible, then you might as well give up on these.

I think the Chicagos look pretty damn good myself, given the fact that we knew they weren’t giving us the OGs, which we would all prefer…universally. I would much rather have some cracked leather and have the colorway basically look pretty close to the original, rather than yellow mid soles that significantly change the look of the shoe.

…that’s just me.

They must’ve bought a ton of cracked leather the way they’re throwing it on every other shoe these days. I don’t understand those chis at all. They could’ve been decent with the cracked leather just on the collar, a sail midsole and the oxidized outsole. Instead we get cracked leather all over the shoe.

I have a feeling these will have cracked back tabs. Something like this.

This is gonna be hard to get. But i still prefer the non “reimagine” version.

I will wait to see what they do with the 3. JB seems to change their mind on what reimagined means from shoe to shoe. Again, the yellowing and or pre oxidation I can deal with. But the cracking of a brand new shoe, no, they can kiss my ***.

This here is my biggest worry. Would they be this dumb?
