OG Nike Air Jordan III Retro True Blue BLACK FRIDAY '16

[ducatiti]

So I've shrink wrapped my True Blue's since I've purchased them. After reading, I've learned that I am doing more damage by wrapping them like that.

After removing the wrap after a few months, I noticed that the leather actually softened up.

Any similar experiences here in regards to the leather softening up? I really wanna double up now that I feel the leather on these things.

What's the shrink wrap for?

What's the shrink wrap for?

In an attempt to preserve my kicks.. But I heard they crumble if kept wrapped for years.

no point in wrapping the breds. And midsoles on 11s don't crumble

So worth wrapping the SJ's and 72-10's to minimize the yellowing?

I mean it can help a LITTLE but it's more about how they're stored as in cool dark place, low humidity .

DS for $400 shipped. Which was honestly more than I was comfortable spending, but cheaper than I was seeing it anywhere else in a size 13. But these were literally number 1 or 2 on my list, so I'll get over the cost. Time to sneak these in the house past wifey though on that I been had these tip.

Eh, I'll cop those too.

I did hear that though, but I couldn't pass this up based on hearsay.

 

[sneakersnapshots]

Plus, I'm banking on BC 3s dropping instead of these.

So I mentioned that after removing the shrink wrap from my shoes after three months or so, I noticed that the leather softened up.

Now it even feels and looks like premium leather after applying leather conditioner.

Just wanted to share this to those who are not happy with the quality of the leather. I would have to agree though that the leather felt stiff right out of the box. Now, my shoes have a whole different feel and look.

Stick to Lexol for all leather. If you're curious, visit /r/goodyearwelt on reddit.
