Just received my pair and the Blue is in fact not True. They look to be the same Blue as the Wizards Pair

Yeah these looking like damn near the same shade of blue as the Wizards 3’s
Already have the super uncomfortable TB 3’s from 2016 so I’m gonna wait for that sales price of $154 no tax free ship baby! Or that VNDS “worn once” pair for $120 lol

You need to do a side by side comparison if you're going to make the claimI don’t usually care to complain but I remember the blue being a little brighter these look industrial

Hey by all means, if anyone wants to take his sizing suggestions and run with it, go ahead lol. I just know that’s coming from someone that consistently says he sizes down on mostly all the Jordans he owns. Guess it depends on how you like your shoes to fit. RI WC3 still fit TTS to me despite being slightly roomier. I’m sure these TBs fit TTS just like all the other 3s do. I’ll be going TTS per usual.

As a fellow 14 card member, this. But I also try to get extra pairs and return to the outlet so I can pay it forward for the next bigfooter and hopefully they enjoy them and not just end up as a resell flip

The wizards 3s are nice, honestly having those gives me no reason to attempt for the tb3s

Can someone with pairs in hand chime in on the sizing?
WearTesters said to go half size down and usually I wouldn't believe them because I know homie wears his shoes a bit too tight but he did say that his Black Cement and Fire Reds ran TTS while these and the White Cements were slightly big.
These match my experiences to a T.
My current Fire Reds and Black Cements fit perfectly with my TTS 9 but for some odd reason, my White Cements (not sure if QC issues), fit just a smidgen big.
I wouldn't say I would've preferred a half size down but sometimes I wish they had like a 8.75 size.
Anybody that has both the TB's and BC's, how do these run?

Decent
Yeah... My imagined joints are TTS as well.
Shape is great... EP lines are too thick/dark. I've gotten accustomed to the thin ep lines

True. But what doesn’t add up is that the 2016’s were also listed as “true blue” in its official color on the box and both blues look nothing alike lol

One of those looks like it was taken with the flash on and the other doesn't.

Doesn't the Wizards blue look closer to this year's pair?
I've found his sizing suggestions reliable for a decade+, but part is that I kinda figured out the relative correlation between his comments and my preferred sizing.
If he simply says TTS = going with my regular size
Half size down with comments like "these are huge," "I'm swimming", etc = ends up being a valid case to go half size down.
Half size down or TTS with " if you want a 1 to 1 fit" = go with the relative half size up from where he settles.
Goes into detail about how a shoe is too tight = reliable belief to go have size up from regular size.
There have been a few select instances that didn't land right, and I think it's because of foot shape. He's more willing/able to work past the base of the last being undersized in order to eliminate dead space in the upper. If I'm hitting the hard edges of a shoe at a given size, it's just not it.
The Not-True Blue 3's are a maybe for me. At the very least the materials and cut sound like they're better than the 2016 to pass as a potential beater.

Hope they all don’t have a short tongue like the BC Vietnam pairs. Don’t want to have to search for a specific country of origin pair again.
