Air Jordan III OG Black Cement returns Feb 2018 - Nike Air on the back

[JACKFROSTY843]

i want the fire red 3s BAD............

What does the mold have to do with the elephant print? I thought the mold was the shape of the shoe and then the elephant print is added to it.

I didn’t imply that they were related I made 2 separate statements.

Elephant print looks rather similar to the 2001. I’m starting to think people just like to complain.

Follow me on IG btw _aquamanjay

 

[rbk93]

Actually like the black EP on the Fire Reds.

 

[Aquamanjay_]

I doubt the mold will get better. 3s keep getting lower and the toe box higher. If not improve for the 30th Anniversary, when?

60th anniversary. Lol. It takes Jordan Brand a while to get things right.

 

[JRepp23]

The mold is here to stay. At least for now. Accept it. Fire red 3 with Nike Air is welcomed for sure.

Dear Nike/JB,
Buy a damn 3D printer, scan the OG, print said mold for all components of the shoe and satisfy the masses for God’s sake. I mean if SpaceX can land freaking space shuttle Boosters on platforms in the Ocean, why can’t YOU get dimensions right on a SHOE? Shoes definitely aren’t rocket science.

I mean we're talking millimeters but you can see some black above the EP on the 01's and you cant on the 18's. I think the 01's are too high to start then you make the EP a little higher to where it covers the whole toe back and its stupid.

Im buying one of these. Dont want to not have a decent condition pair of BC3 before JB tries again but Im not going to be the one buying up multiple pairs of a crappy remaster.

 

[Aquamanjay_]

I remember when folks back in 2008 were angry about the shape of the CDP. 2018 looks to have gotten worse. In 2008, i couldn’t have imagined that 3s would change even more. Still grabbing these tho retail or resell

 

[1988supersport]

The cleats got better shape. Okay im f'in around on that one. But they kinda do got that OG shape lol.

 

[Kim Fatty the Third]

60th anniversary. Lol. It takes Jordan Brand a while to get things right.

I’ll be collecting Social Security checks by then.

 

[rbk93]

People said CDP 3s were one of the best retros quality wise in the whole collection.

 

[1978S]

Sheesh are those really the 2008's up there? Shape looks great on those especially with the side by side with the 2018 pair.

 

[Nujavez]

Lol 60th anniversary. I'll be 58 by then. Atleast I'll be the fly old guy with the OG mold cement 3's jk..

 

[Aquamanjay_]

People said CDP 3s were one of the best retros quality wise in the whole collection.

I don’t remember any CDP besides the 12s and 13s getting any praise for their quality. I can personally vouch for the lack of quantity for the CDP 1,4,6,8, and 11

 

[Iceman92]

Actually like the black EP on the Fire Reds.

Never cared for it at all . Always wished it was that dark ash grey like the OGs even if the retros was a shade darker than its counterparts but black is just a turn off for me

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

Lol 60th anniversary. I'll be 58 by then. Atleast I'll be the fly old guy with the OG mold cement 3's jk..

You'd be surprised how many 50 year olds are still on here copping kicks

 

[noblekane]

Jordan brand anniunced that they would be limiting their releases to keep the exclusivity of jordans..don’t quote me on that lol

thats pretty stupid. who is making decisions overthere? did they rehire gentry? the smart thing to do is release a high volume of og colorways and make new colorways limited. them ****** aint gon never learn are they? its going to take a few murders to happen over their shoes for them to finally get it

oh wait...

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

What up noblekane

 

[truenike81]

People said CDP 3s were one of the best retros quality wise in the whole collection.

They were TRASH crack n peel after 2 wears.

 

[Laces-Out!]

They were TRASH crack n peel after 2 wears.

Just pulled mine out last week, definitely still rocking with cracked paint and all.

I feel u couldn't save mine

12s and 13s def got praises. Want to say the 2s, 3s, 6s, and 7s got a lot of love too, but that could have been more so for a classic CW than actual quality.

CDP 11s and Space Jams 11 are just SMH.

Never cared for it at all . Always wished it was that dark ash grey like the OGs even if the retros was a shade darker than its counterparts but black is just a turn off for me

Prefer the lighter black on the 2007 retro, but don't mind the 2013 either. Just feel it looks better than a cement like elephant print.

They were TRASH crack n peel after 2 wears.

At that time, especially for me, take what you could get lol. Will say it kind of prevented me from purchasing 3s and 4s or even wearing them as much because it ruined resale value.

 

[SoleByThePound]

99 bred 4s are one of the best js ever. A rare case where the Retro was better than the ogs.

As great as the 99 retro was, it was not better than the original. I swear the things I read on here.

You know the folks complaining are gonna cop anyway

Elephant print looks rather similar to the 2001. I’m starting to think people just like to complain.
