Jordan 5Lab3 in Black to release on May 17, 2014

both are just OK at best to me, the 3 is such a classic shoe i dont need them to look like moon boots
 
I love my silver pair of 5labs but idk what it is that's holding me back from getting the black pair
 
I don't understand this line of thinking. I mean it's great if the 3m shines a lot, but how often are you gonna be wearing them and they'll be shining? IMO the black ones look better in the daylight, I could care less Which one shines more.

Well considering that in day time the Sun is out and most places have certain lighting in their establishments, I'd say they would be shining often. This is not like glow in the dark where you have to be somewhere really dark to notice the glow. Plus I have plenty of black based shoes. So that plays in effect also. I don't have many grey/silver toned sneakers. Pretty simple line of thinking for me.
 
@G Money 87  Your 2 pairs look significantly different in sizes. I'd ask if you sized down on purpose on the black but your silver pair looks unworn so you wouldn't know how they fit, right?
 
i finally got my shipping confirmation on these from FTL....

Grats on the pick up boys!  I have a feeling that the going rate will be about $370 in a year.
 
Should I sell my used Fear 3s to fund for a pair of these?  Maybe it's time to switch it up.  Used Fear 3s still fetch a pretty penny...u think used 3Lab5 will ever get atleast 75%-100% of your money back down the road in VNDS?
 
The more pictures I see of these, the less I like them. I think the problem for me is the elephant print, which is a staple of the 3, just isn't apparent enough. Happy to see resell prices aren't very high though. Who knows, still might pick up a pair down the road, I like my 3m 5's, not sure why I don't like these 5lab3's more.

In my opinion they won't fetch near retail used. That creasing issue will hurt their value severely.
