lakers 8??Aqua 8's, Chrome 8's, and assuming i'm understanding the hint properly, a new colorway for the 8 based on the teams Jordan beat back in the day. So I guess they've just given up on next year huh?
Just dropping off some info for 2015 you guys may or may not know...

As far as the three-peat 8's isnt the OG black colorway already Blazer-ish? Kobe had some nice 8 PE's and didn't we just get a Suns-esque colorway of the 8's?

It would have to be a combination colors from LA, Portland, Phoenix, Seattle, and Utah so we'll see how that turns out.

Combination of LA, Portland, and Phoenix. It's only the first 3peat. White based shoe, championship trophy tongue logo from OG Playoff samples

"3-peat" Jordan 8...white based with colors of teams that he beat in the first 3-peat. Blazers, Lakers, Suns.
And oh yeah. 3-peat Jordan 8 also doesn't have usual chenille material 3-D tongue. It has a tongue from a previous sample.

My bad, I was theorizing based off the initial tweet not specifying if it was both 3Peats or one over the other, thank you for the clarification. I just hope they use the orange from the Suns in a way that looks good or hopefully their black? I guess we'll have to wait and see

Despite trying for the doernbecher (as I'm sure everyone did) I don't like 8s in general. So a what the 3peat eigtt would definitely be saving me $. I'd for sure put that extra $ towards the raging bull 5 if I missed out..... **** knocks on wood ****

Hoping any of those V's actually do come to fruition. I for sure think the Black/Metallic V's will drop in August due to the White/Metallic pair dropping in a few months and the Black/Metallic 6 low's dropping in August. Along with the fact that JB always sticks to color concepts when it comes concepts (last August being the Sport Blue month).

you and me both, if the Black/Metallic V's and Raging Bull Pack V's drop along with these upcoming White/Metallic V's I'll be a happy man 
.I agree, even though the remastered project isn't panning out how most people anticipated/hoped it would, if both Metallic V's (Black's yet to be confirmed) along with both pairs of the Toro Bravo Pack drop along with the other confirmed/rumored shoe's this year would be a wrap when compared to other year's

I guess since I wasn't around when the pack sat (that's what I've heard) something about having both even though the rumor was that they won't drop as a pack this time around and then throw in the fact that I love black based shoe's and wasn't able to grab the black 5LAB3's comes out to me needing both. Unless they release after August, the Black Metallic V's do drop in August, and the Black Metallic V's do it for me enough to happily pass on the Black 3M V's

These...look very interesting. The more I look at them the more I like them....kinda pulling for these...OP where are you on the Jordan 11 confrimation. Not tryna rush but the anticipation is killing me.
I was strongly campaigning for the 11s that were supposed to look like this mockup to come out.
Hope I get my wish.

I don't think 8s are as popular as 6s since they kinda have a polarizing design. I'm sure aquas will sell because of the hype but retro + cws of 8s have historically sat (i.e. peapods, suns, etc.)

The only 8s to me worth buying are the playoffs and DBs. Playoffs are just so classic and perfect looking and the execution on the DBs were on point. Anything else to me naa. Not a big 8s fan. Chrome 8s are nice but I wouldn't buy them

In the minority but I like the raging bull 3m dunk more than the 5
