Nike Air Jordan Retro 3 OG “Fire Red” 2022

[freshkicks95]

It’s OG colorways only for me. The other colorways are nice (was tempted to buy the Desert Elephants) but don’t need them. Luckily, I am over the hype phase and only buy what I truly like.

I'll say this. It doesn't matter what others like because it always end up to that individuals personal preference. Now to have these back in true form (shape, color, low EP, tongue etc...) is a dream... It's always refreshing to have a piece of legendary history THIS CLOSE to OG standards.

JB making colorways that resemble OGs isn't anything new. Money is the game! If they can keep consumers buying these retro plus without actually giving us OGs, they will.

Prime examples:
Katrinas-similar in color but shape, tongue, EP is off, no NA
Denims- Sorta similar in color. Shape, tongue, EP good. Plus they hit us with the NA on the back. Clear tab was a No Go..
Cardinals- Similar in color, right shape, tongue, low EP, no NA.
Put all 3 together with neccessary components and whadda ya have...

Now they've started this "Reimagine" crap. So now I "Imagine" we won't be getting Chicagos or White cements for a while...lol

For the record why did some of ya'll buy Cardinals knowing these were dropping this year? Now some of you are torn due to redundancy?

Impulse buy

Despite the supposedly low hype on these I think these are going to sell out everywhere online within an hour

Once people see these in person, it’s over.

Better within an hour than what it would have been in 2020-2021: Technical difficulties followed by Instant "OOS"

I do see the hype on these gaining momentum as they are going unopposed. It's early in the month and people still got bread, and itching to buy something. These gonna be it this weekend

My order email from EA last week has always said “Arrives 9/16/2022”. I’m guessing that I should still be in the clear and not have it effected by that trailer incident? I haven’t gotten any cancellation notifications.

I only want 1 pair. I just want to make sure I don’t have to be up for Saturday.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

If you aren’t hyped for these, maybe you should get out of the so called “shoe game.”

 

[headdetective]

Im not hyped but I’m lookin forward, does that count lol

That counts. lol

 

[headdetective]

I can stay in the shoe game

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

If you’re a shoe collector or just love shoes or admire the GOAT’s basketball abilities, why woukd you pass on these?

Other than not have any money to get them right now.

These are basketball history, man.

Anyone else under 30 on this site?

If your knees or back are shot, you’re old. lol

 

[slaughterx]

What if you just dont like em? I wear very little red... like maybe 5% of my wardrobe.

 

[ill4eva]

Some of y’all really doing too much by trying to convince people to like this shoe. Lol

Get em and make red 6% of your wardrobe jk jk I know you like to match but these can be pulled off with many styles and colors. I personally say get em just for the culture but if these aren't your bag then you aren't missing out on anything. Its just a shoe at the end of the day. One doesn't need every colorway if thats not their goal. White Cements are right around the corner anyway pad your pockets with the money saved for those suckers.

That woukd be ME.



Hey man, I just don’t want people to regret itin the long run. I’m not just thinking of myself. It’s not like I get a paycheck to influence people into buying them. It comes from a genuine place.

These have a touches of red. It’s a well balanced clean shoe. But you have Katrina’s so I guess you’re good if you wear little red.

You can call Nike CS and they should be able to tell you. I have some Dunks on order, and they said if the package didn't get picked up yet (which it wasn't), I should be fine.

Good looking pair.

Good lookin left...these pairs have some elephant print inconsistencies. This is one of the nice slimmer ones.
