Nike Air Jordan Retro 3 OG “Fire Red” 2022

[wombat]

The yellow paint on the pants is dope.

…was that deliberate or an accident?

Looks like mustard from a glizzy.

Verdict: Accident

What brand are they?

I need to get a pair with some red paint for my Breds and Chicagos.

I had to Google the word “glizzy.”

…how did they come up with that?

Really great shoe.

Though personally, I prefer the lighter shade of EP on the White Cements.

So we not doing gifs anymore?

 

[cragmatic]

I think I might like these more than the white/cements, after several wears I really love them.

I might be right there with you. Definitely like them more than the reimagined 3s they gave us.

What makes them better than the WCs?

…in your opinion.

Used, Men's 14, 2022 Retro, Fire Red 3. I've taken care of the visible parts of the shoe as best I can. I wear them often so they are loved by me and the city streets. I adore the medial side of the midsole, it reminds me of a car.

I said it a long time ago, this is the ONE. White Cements weren’t going to live up to this retro pair.

I can’t disagree more

No laces is crazy but I'm glad you're getting your moneys worth. These look like they've seen some stuff.

My sz 14 brother. You took a classic and used it like it was supposed to be back in 88/89.

I dont want to get into comparisons. But fire reds were always my personal favorite between og colorways. But how they did this retro was truly a miracle - well at least my pair.

Obviously black and white cements have a greater legacy. Im totally indifferent with true blues.

They are definitely used! I really appreciate the leather that was used on the upper. The coat of paint that is above the leather did a fantastic job of repelling stains. Underneath that coat, the leather creates wrinkles that I like to admire when I'm looking at my shoe collection. This is my first Jordan Retro, color me impressed.

You would.

White Cements are great in their own right, but these they at least didn’t age. They released the proper way.

True but even with the aging, the WC is just such a cold, clean look. I love my Fire Reds, too, but to me they just aren’t quite in the same category.
As an aside, wore my Desert Elephants yesterday for the first time in a couple months. Still noticeably more comfortable than both WCs and FRs. So bizarre.

True, true, they are a cold clean look…but hey, I’m Italian, we love our red, ayyyyy! I’m just glad we have all three(including Desert Elephants). We got some great 3s to rotate in the mix and keep things fresh. Throw some AMM 3s in too and that’s a solid lineup.

Totally. I actually am down to my last pair of AMMs and thinking about selling. I’d rather just wear WCs at every opportunity, and I just have more than too many damn shoes

That’s ok. Just make sure you don’t sell those Fire Reds and wear them every once in awhile as a toast to spoonie.
