Jordan III Retro 5LAB3 "Reflective" Limited Release $225 2014 Release Day Rumor. Reflective Silver/Black-White colorway, now that we've seen the 3LAB5's in 2013 and know what the name means, what do you guy's think will be incorporated from the 5 into the 3? The color's sound nice, and since I love the Infrared 3LAB5's I can blindly say I'm going to cop, what about you NT'ers? Any thoughts, predictions, maybe possible photoshop creations for you creative members?
 
Not owning any of the earlier releases and upon holding and looking at them up close it did change my mind the craftsmanship put into these do justify the price point. That being said just based on the description I see the some hints on the 3M material used in the green bean V and toro pack V but not thought the entire shoe.

Well since the elephant print of the 3 was all over the 5, someone on IG (I got my info off the post from Daily Sole's Instagram page within the last hour) said that the reflective tongue of the 5 would be the main detail feature of the 3, which makes sense with the color being "reflective silver." It definitely sounds dope, just the color's themselves makes me want these 3's, and the quality on the 3LAB5's justify the $225 price point and make me want these even more since I can already assume great quality and great detail. It would have been nice if JB would have used such high quality on their $170+ retro price tag and not just because it costs $225, at least for me it makes me believe it's more about the money with these companies now.

I love both Flip III's, and the Infrared 3LAB5!

I'm not sure how the 5LAB3 will work out though. I would hope there is still elephant print on them.

We have some very creative people on this site, so they may come through and PS some possibilities.

I'm thinking the main body of the 3 will be 3m and the cement print will be untouched (black) and the midsole will be white.
 
Can't wait for pics to suface!! I have both flip 3s and both 3Lab5s love em all!!!

That's what I was thinking and I'm hoping someone will soon come up with possible ideas, that's why I added the whole creative NT'ers come through for us lol.

That's a very good prediction, hopefully it isn't a late year release because the suspense is killing me after getting my Infrared 3LAB5's, but creative idea's in the meantime will do as well.

I can't wait for some kind of movement, I love the flips and I love the Infrared 3LAB5's as well (the gamma's are too loud for my style), and not to mention the quality on these. I just wish some of our creative member's would jump on these and put photoshop to great use!

That's a fair thing to say, not every shoe description comes out as expected. The Infrared 3LAB5 didn't seem so attractive to me after seeing the first 3LAB5's until I saw pictures so my hat's off to you for being smart with your decision making.
 
omg it says limited, they could look like dog turds and i'll still lose my frickin mind.

Gotta admit, I lol'd. I only put limited release because that's what the daily sole had put in their release info today on Instagram and because I know people were going to ask at some point whether they were a GR, LR, or the lovely QS.
 
Kicking myself for not picking up either 3LAB5, so I have high hopes for these. 
 
Aren't there pics already? Isn't this the grey pair that leaked the same time as the blk/sport bluess

I only liked the infrareds, I wasn't feeling the Gamma's though, they were too loud for my "calm" personality lol

I love how the flips look, and I'm seeing some on Ebay for not too bad of a price IMO ending really soon, but I'm not an expert on determining the legitimacy of them and I know that on NT you aren't supposed to post links so I guess I'm just passing up on them.
