midsole chipped like crazy, really fast too.
rumour is they'll drop again next year, i'd suggest you wait. they have since improved on midsole paint. otherwise, if you cop the '07's get some angelus acrylic finisher and protect the paint before you wear them. pick up some fire red also, just in case.

I had to repaint the midsole on mine which was a giant pain (mostly getting all of the original paint off) but they are very comfy IMO. Hopefully they retro again next year though.

here in the jb forum. take it as a rumour for now.
the leather is ok. tumbled a little on the upper, but then the strip which goes over it looks cheap in comparison.

The quality was just okay. The midsole paint chips easily and the leather feels hard and plasticy. Just because it doesnt crease easily means its good leather. All in all, it was a step down from the 2001s.
However, the padding was good and they were very comfy. And the shape still used the 2001-2003 mold for the IIIs so that was a plus. My main gripe was how the elephant print was blacked out, it wasn't like that on the OGs.

Any Jordan 3,4,8 released in the past 5-6 years you might as well just strip off all the Midsole paint and repaint it yourself, even if you haven't worn them yet.. The White Cements from this year have maybe 1 or 2 more wears before they start chipping for me..
Fire Reds are the Worst when it comes to chipped paint.
