Air Jordan Retro III (3) True Blue - August 2009 (SneakerFiles.com) ***[UPDATED 6/2]***

The best way I can describe my bad pair is this: If you look at the right shoe in the first picture and the shoe in the 3rd photo, it looks like that but the tumbled leather is 3x more tumbled. All of your shoes are tumbled but not to the extent where it jumps out at you. That's the best way I can describe it. I don't want my true blues to look so tumbled that they look like a lizard.

Thanks for the photos dude; excellent shots of an excellent shoe. I hope I can get another pair like the ones you have.

The tumbled leather on one of them is as tumbled as the metallic 1's. I don't mind the tumbled leather on the metallic 1's, but it just doesn't look like right when one of your shoes is extremely tumbled and the other isn't, you know what I mean?

DCS23, you said you had 8 pairs. Were there any pairs that you had in which you noticed that one shoe was smooth and the other was very rough in texture? You said one side was smoother. Were the other sides just a little less smooth or were they rough and really tumbled like mine? Most people have said that the texture on each shoe was identical. Mine is far from that. Were there any that completely stuck out to you?

sorry for the late responses...its our thanksgiving weekend up here so lots of family stuff going on...anywho without pictures it would be hard to compare justhow 'badly' matched your sides are...the other thing is the mismatch is something subjective...you might feel it is wayyyy off while someone elsethinks its a little off...post up some pics of what you have and ill let you know what i think...my personal feeling though was that none the pairs that were'mismatched' were anything to stress over

Yeah man no prob, glad I can help, got my pairs from air19710617jordan(eBay). Great seller, fast shipper with great shoes. That's too bad that you'retb3s tumbled leathers bad. Other people had a really messed up tounge, laces holes and bad heel tab area. I'm happy both of mine were as good as they come.

CHECK EBAY U MAY HAVE TO DROP A LIL MORE DOUGH BUT LOOK UR BUYING SOME GOOD QUALITY LIMITED SHOES FOR 200-$230 UNLIKE THE POOR QUALITY SOON TO BE GENERALRELEASED SJ 09
 
for those who asked about canadian prices it will vary somewhat depending on a few factors:

are they coming from retail stores like FL, Champs etc. ?
are they from boutique stores that have their own markup?
after that then you have to account for provincial taxes (think about the different taxes in different states for you americans)...in ontario for example it is13% tax

this is how you can figure out total price after taxes in CDN dollars of course...then you can convert it to USD using a site like xe.com for uptodate currencyconversion
