Do you remember when we first saw this pic..........

The words "Tinker" and "XX3" are like Jedi mindtricks to some.

If Mayden or Edwards came up with these, if they were the XX2 or the 2K9, plenty of
people would be happy to find fault with them.

They're nothing much to look at, or to play in.

Not the weakest post-retirement model, definitely not the best either.

I strongly disagree.

Didn't really like dem when they came out...but then they started growin on me and now I got 4 pairs of XX3's
 
Sorry, In my eyes, the XX3 was a huge let down built on a bunch of hype. It was supposed to be one of the greatest performing basketball shoes, and failedmiserable to the performance of the Zoom BB 1, which only cost me 80 bucks at the time. Not only did the traction suck, but the upper hurt my ankle because itfelt like cardboard, and the side of the shoe blistered my toes. Now I will admit that by looks they had potential, and I was excited to play ball in them, butin the end they were a very huge disappointment, especially for 200 inc Tax.
 
all the hype and controversy at the time. how could anyone who was around then possibly forget.

the love is slowly but surely growing still. reflecting after the smoke clears after the promising 25th anniversary will bring even more love
 
I had a feeling it was going to be that pic before I even opened the thread.
The XX3's to me are a beautiful looking shoe. I agree with El bro about the performance aspect.
However, I'm definitely not going to spend $200 on a shoe to hoop in.
 
the white/red my fav... wore mine couple of time.... due to being the 23rd of the series i had to copp...never regretted it either...
 
As of right now i could hionestly say the Air Jordan XX3 is the best of all time, if not best def top 3. That goon in the ESPN mag ranked em last. Idiocy.
