Makes too much sense.
Doesn’t JB make every release of the shoe different to “honor” the original?

It's not even remotely that serious. Design is a subjective art.

Sad. As much as you go on and on and spend your days critiquing JBs shape/mold/materials etc. vs the OGs. For you to come in here and not co-sign what this man did to his 3s is just sad. Kinda can’t even take you serious now. If you don’t like the OG 3s, then you just don’t like 3s then. Just say that. What we get these days is not even the same shoe in comparison. Damn near need to log out for spewing such blasphemy. Comments and opinions like yours are one of the reasons why JB keeps giving us the crap they’re giving us when it comes to the 3s.
I love some OGs. Some I don’t. I typically go hard for the 4,5,6,7, and 8. I’m not a fan of the 1988 3s. I think the 1994 perfected the design. Sheesh

Not that serious yet he has an entire IG page practically dedicated to very subject of comparing retros to their original counterparts. Yeah, not that serious at all. If it wasn’t “that serious” I don’t think NT would exist or that he’d be spending probably hours of his day writing about the subject.

@ a replica perfected the design. I swear, the **** I read on this board sometimes is something else.

I prefer the 1994 retro aesthetically than the OG.

^^^^Haha. I have 3 pairs of those thinking I was sitting on something special or at least the next J-Rod. Boy was I wrong. Those things are god damn tanks now.

I didn’t know I was supposed to like Every OG or else. I y’all about the OGs I like on my IG. Calm down before you pop a vein.

Yeah that’s just wrong
the original IS the perfected design. Matter of fact JB is throwing out the imperfect designs, aka the “tinker” line

I'm saying that it's not nearly serious enough to get a post off with quotables like "Sad", "Kinda can’t even take you serious now", and "If you don’t like the OG 3s, then you just don’t like 3s then" in my opinion.
Yes, this is a site with subforums that care enough to have debates about the differences between silhouettes of the re-releases of a 30 year old basketball sneaker. That said, being passionate and letting yourself conflate your opinion on a subjective art form with some sense of correctness is just goofy to me. If the original shape of this one particular shoe doesn't do it for him, then it just doesn't. I don't even share that opinion but getting mad at it is silly.
He already chimed in himself though so I'm off it.

“Not that serious”, “then don’t buy them” and/or “do you” render this forum useless. Just sayin

I think we all knew that JB could have done it the whole time. It was only that they chose not to.

I’m having a hard time grasping the fact that musicians and entertainers get their own basketball shoes. You have 1000s of actual basketball players who wear them for a living.

This comparison shot is incredible
It's insanity.Even look at the arch comparison in the back padding.
These are the things we bring up in here during these releases but now it's "quit crying" and "these are heat" "5 pears minimum"
