Now that most of us have these in hand, what are your thoughts? One thing I will say is that I complained heavy about how thick the elephant print lines were before release, but my particular pair is pretty thin! Very happy about that! I don't have an OG pair, but I still feel that the grey could be darker based on OG pics I have seen. The 88 pair is 95% my favorite Jordan of all time, so I am excited to see if anyone does small tweaks we all can mimic to get them looking the way we want. SK8 the great mentioned putting baby oil on them to get it darker on IG, hahaha, not sure if that was a joke or not. But waiting to see someone else's results before trying anything, my bank account isn't set up like that....

This 11.5 looked tried on. Passed. The quality is alright, I wasn't like hyped or anything. One pair is enough. My pair arrives Friday.

They felt firm but well built. I dont why I was expecting them to be a little soft. In hand they look small. Like an nter said, the last retroes that I owned that felt pretty soft and had good quality was the 2001 bc 3 and 2003 wc 3. I was influenced by how nters were describing the 2022 fr 3 quality. I guess I had my hopes up a little, but in hand they're alright not bad, but not the heavy weight and soft quality I expected.

I’ve noticed that they really lowered the height with this release. 3s usually sit higher than the ankle but these sit slightly lower. There’s things they fixed but there’s things they modified on purpose to make sure we’re clamouring for another release in 10 years. Plus the leather is hit or miss depending on the pair you got. Nowhere close to the 01’ 03’ releases
