MN WORLD PREMIER: Air Jordan III White/Cement Grey-Fire Red 2011 Via Modern Notoriety *UPDATED*

It's almost like they knew the shoe would be worn in rain/wintery months so they made it a little more durable. Why can't all 3's use this paint?!?!?

They dont look bad at all.
but still 50/50 about copping a pair. Dont think I need more IIIs.

they look decent elephant print is nothing to complain about it fades over time anyways i'm just not liking the price tag i'm only getting them jsut to have a fresh pair....$130 would've sufficed this is coming from paying $100 for these back in '02 & '03, but $50 dollar jump? good thing i'm getting these thru my channels so the higher the price the steeper the discount

The flips aren't even a good example those were beyond crappy in quality compared to last year's TB III's they've held up better than most from wat i've seen

I walked around at the mall for 1 hour. That was it... I mean I know the Recent TBIII Paint was better but it still cracked after one wear for some people sort of like a hit or miss..... What kills me is that Nikes that use the same Air Revolution sole don't crack...... But Jordans that do , crack badly thats an unsolved mystery for another day
