I'm just happy so much stuff is releasing around these, should be easier to cop in combination with people's feeling around these....

No not at all. I don't see people complain too much about the rolling over on other 3s. Doesn't bother me a bit. But spending $ on these is still up in the air. I want at least 3 SJs...not gonna be easy on the wallet. On the other hand don't want to miss out on these and have Nike go back to jumpman on retros.^ Tongue liners didn't roll over until the 00s. I don't think they're as bad as people think. Game time decision because I really don't need these.
EP looks miles better than the early fake pics and in line with '11 pairs I think? Not the OG that we want, but NA without super-limiting pairs is appreciated. Slow progress towards OGs at Nike is a profitable strategy.The one thing that's pissing me off
Dark color, fine
Red tongue, ok
Huge elephant print on the toe? Ruins the look of the shoe completely IMO
He just wanted to jump on the "bash the shoe bandwagon"... but he has no idea what is talking about
I think we will be good, don't Yeezy's release on Black Friday too? If so, I don't see these being a problem anyways.

Theonly reason jb made the tongue red is because of the og. Everyone crying about the blue tongue needs to stop acting like jb pulled this out of their a**. Don't like the red? Oh well, jb has been "committed" to making all retros like their original 20+ old designs since last year.Could care less about the history B.... I had the 2011 and was the best 3's I ever own, was expecting a remake of that but nope they got this red behind tongue crap I didn't want. It's whatever tho guess it's my fault for beating my 2011 true blues to the ground. I'm out you can have these and this fake "History" preaching ish ya lames care about.

exactly just like the registered trademark on the tongue of the 1's .Theonly reason jb made the tongue red is because of the og.

You can not like them, but to jb this isn't anything new and they could care less if people don't like the tongue cuz they're still going to sell out and cash out.

If they really wanted to make them like the OG's they would have made it so you couldn't see the red from all angles.Theonly reason jb made the tongue red is because of the og.

My theory (totally just a guess don't kill me) is that when JB re retroed these the first time in 2001 and then again in 2011, they had a puffier tongue and it was showing, so they looked at it and said "hmmm something looks off." They saw the red and knew it looked off so they changed it to blue.
I'm completely okay with the red tongue lining but you shouldn't be able to see it if they were really trying to go back to the OGs. Also if they were really committed to this, they would change the shape back to the OGs and also make the elephant print small and thin.
Just my opinion of course.

If the 2011 was the best 3 you ever owned you automatically disqualified yourself from this discussion.

All this discussion on red tongue liners and EP thicknesd...if a detail that insignificant is what keeps you from buying...you didn't really want them.
Here's what I want to know having not owned a pair of III's or IV's since the mid-00 cycle...have they fixed the midsole material to keep the paint from chipping so bad? That is a make or break for me. I'm a big guy at 250 lbs so I'm putting some downforce on shoes even wearing casually. I don't want shoes looking rachet after a handful of wears.
you mean 2006-2014. 2012 bred 4s chipped with just a gust of windThey've got better, but by no means are they great. The 2011s weren't bad. Mine didn't start to chip until after heavy wear but its different for everyone.
Nothing will compare to the chipping of the 2006-2009 era.
My black/red/grey 4's from 2012 started to chip after just my 4th wear, no BS and no lie. I sold them immediately because I knew it was going to get worse from that point on.you mean 2006-2014. 2012 bred 4s chipped with just a gust of wind
