For the record why did some of ya'll buy Cardinals knowing these were dropping this year? Now some of you are torn due to redundancy?

Idk how y’all are even comparing those trash cardinals to these. That shiny *** midsole and jumpman on the heel make them irrelevant.

Absolutely! I passed on those without feeling any type of FOMO.

Its really smart to post stolen hauls on insta... esp when you have tats pictured that can easily identify you. Should be a matter of time before they are caught, shouldnt be hard to track the sales of so many unreleased shoes with QR codes.

Lol at the dude blocking his face in vintage pictures 
.
I’m 26 and these are a must cop. Younger crowd that is passing on these doesn’t appreciate history and goes to show they are only in for “hype” or resell.
Can’t wait for these

Been on this site since my freshman year of high school
I remember how hype people were for the Aqua 8 retro in 07 since it was the first time they ever retroed.
My mom bought me a pair, God rest her soul.

One thing the Cardinals have on the other 2 that I like is the EP in the lace area. In the above comparison they look alittle cleaner as well...
Certainly doesn't change the facts that the Fire Red rules over them both...
A lot of July Guys in here. I hit 41 in July as well.... Salutes...

Probably because they were worried about JB inevitably f****g these up with some yellow tab or pre-scraped leather B/S.

I really don’t like when they make the midsole shiny. But yeah, the Cardinal 3 just doesn’t stand a chance against these.

That’s the thing too that makes these a must cop. Jordan Brand didn’t jack these up with the pre-aging or other
they do to avoid giving us truer to the original.

100%. I'm happy to see they did the right thing. The white cement 3 is my Jordan grail, so I'm reaaaally hoping they just ditch the reimagined nonsense for those too.

When you dudes get girls, you can't get with her, because she doesn't look as good or isn't as smart as another girl? Her butt is smaller so the girl is trash? Some of y'all are weird and need to get off the internet. Dudes kill me with the weird *** internet/Skip Bayless hot takes where everything is either trash or a grail. And a lot of you are way too old to be communicating like 15 and 16 year olds do.

I don’t even pay attention to JB releases unless an OG colorway is dropping nowadays. Less passionate for the shoe game plus less time. As I got older and the process of releases became different and more digital, I jus got less interested. Miss the midnight drops or camp outs at Niketowns and malls. Jus more fun then. Hell, in the 90s, the days of skipping 3rd period to cop and come back at lunch with the new Js on. Good times. Once all the OG colorways drop that I want, I’m out the game…

When they started gettin the 3's & other models closer to the right shape I stopped coppin all Jordans unless the colorway speaks to me on a visceral level. Like if I see it and close my eyes and the Matrix shows up with the white room and all my wardrobe, clothes & accesories in my shopping list, carts, and wishlist pops up that is what will make me want them and make them a robo-cop. Then there's OG colorways in these new molds....that just goes without saying. Always wanted all OG colorways in remaster form from pairs 1 through 8 ever since I got my first pair of Jordans(Cardinal 7's) with retro card in 06.

I wouldn’t even compare these to Cardinals with the different shade of red and placement of the elephant print. If anything, I passed on Katrinas cuz I prefer Fire Reds over those.
