OG Nike Air Jordan III Retro True Blue BLACK FRIDAY '16

[jrossignol5245]

These were just fine. Leather quality not super but lines were clean, look superb on foot. A bit snug but no one should be nervous or afraid to buy these. When I wear them I feel like they will last for ever as well.

 

[wackazz]

Caved in after all these years and copped a pair. Scared of sizing but went tts. My 2011 are messed up bad so I needed a new pair lol

 

[crumps brother]

^2016 True Blues were small for me...killed my feet

seems like there was mixed opinions on sizing for these and 2018 black III's

 

[kingjay718]

True to size for me. Wish I doubled up. Oh well.

 

[dietervm]

In most cases I'm a size 10, always order a 10.5 just in case...this is the only pair of shoes were a 10.5 felt so snug...

 

[sneakaprince]

Sold my size 9 yesterday locally. Like many others the sizing was off on these and they hurt to wear. I'm a 9-9.5 usually and these were just such a pain to wear for more than just a trip to the stirre.


Paid 150 when they dropped sold for 165 a couple years later after wearing a couple times. I can't complain.

 

[HellRazor1978]

They do run a tad small. I went tts but probably should have gone up 1/2. The 2018 bc3 fits better.

True Blues 3s are my favorite Jordan of all time. The 2016s have been tanks for me. Thread revival came at a perfect timesince I actually recently started working on trying to darken the elephant print to make it more like the OGs. Not a huge change but I notice the difference.

What did you use to darken?

 

[super38]

What did you use to darken?

I used baby oil. Saw a restorer use it on suede in a video so I tried it on some beater 3s before tackling the true blues. Just keep hitting it with a few light layers of oil and let’s dry, then repeat the process.

don't forget...retail was $220 on these

 

[wackazz]

this the pair I’m buying this weekend for 220. Worn twice, damn near ds. Better than paying 300+etc on stockx.

 

[rooster]

I know it’s been 4 years but crazy that these are going for $350-400 now
These were widely available at around $130 for the most part(at least at Nike outlets)during F&F
Still can’t believe I only paid $88 for my pair
The sneaker gods were looking out for me on that day my friend lol

Yup, got mine at the outlet for $150. Luckily I was able to try a couple different sizes on because these do run tight imo.

 

[walkingBred]

Prices up cause there's only a small handful left per size on stockX. No more supply. Only holdouts left to sell.

 

[3thaman]

The insole was thick was one problem, almost got rid of mine until I took them out and used shoe horns to stretch them. Much better now.

Man I remember

discounts on discounts were being passed around I think I copped for like 140

[colosneakerado]

CityBlue achieved legendary status with their $150 price

 

[rooster]

I rank cityblue the #1 disco king
There was a stretch where they were just killing it
RIP to cityblue and mystery monday

 

[The Fresh Prince]

I remember securing my pair on hibbettsports.com for around $160

 

[sk33termcg33]

Got my beater pair from Hibbett for around that price... wish I got a 3rd pair now.

 

[crumps brother]

I bought them from snkrs for $200 and when I opened them up...

returned them real quick

later picked up a barely worn pair on the low

too bad they killed my toes...sold for more than I paid when I found out about the black III's being released

 

[xmigzx]

Remember buying these on SNKRS on Black Friday. Then received and email a week later saying they refunded me my money for the return, but I never returned them. So I contacted Nike and told them to charge me because I still had the shoes....and they never did. So I ended up getting the shoes for free. Hey at least I tried.

They should’ve been free for everyone. These were an atrocious disgrace.
