Was able to see these grey toes in person. That painted midsole really kills the shoe. If your disappointed by pics and videos, you'll be even more disappointed in person. The rest is really nice though. This is coming from someone who loves the 13's, one of my favorite models. After seeing these today, I will be passing...painfully cuz I really wanted to like these

Damn I was on the fence because that painted midsole was really bothering me, I'll definitely pass now

That's unfortunate. I think the suede midsole is a big part of the 13 line. A JB fumble for the long standing fans of the 13. But a guaranteed sell out for the new school shoe heads.

Yeah guys, these would have been money if the midsole was suede. But they look so far off its not even funny. With the holograms it doesn't lok to bad cuz the upper isn't suede. Let the hype beasts have these. I can see it now, resellers trying to hype these cuz they "unreleased OG samples"

 

[wafflegeist]

yall are tripping over the painted midsole but you would honestly be upset if they were bleeding everywhere. its not such a big deal imo

 

[Xristosak]

but you would honestly be upset if they were bleeding everywhere.

I wouldn't. And I'm sure they could find a fix for, just choose not too

After looking at the grey tongues too I have realized white/reds>grey tongues. The white/reds just look more complete may just look for a DS pair instead (I hate when people call the white/red CW Cherry)

I think I am passing on the grey toe 13's and just gonna save up for the black/red 13's in December.

CO-SIGN. The white/red CW is so clean. I still have my lows in geat condition. Nicknames based on colors are just terrible.

Isn't the fact that the midsole is painted that the paint will start to crack or chip like the 3's and 4's?

Won't be suprised. Because we know they didn't fix that problem either, lol

 

[wafflegeist]

none of my 3's since the 88s dropped have cracked in the slightest

 

[Xristosak]

Which ones, and how much wear are we talking about? I haven't bought any 3's since 88's.

 

[wafflegeist]

88s, infrared 23, and fire red

fire reds are beat to hell and we worn like 3x a week for about 3 months

88s have moderate wear so once every couple weeks

Yeah that's defiantly going to happen, even if the paint holds up for a while it will eventually start to chip. The painted midsole makes them look cheep IMO. I just hope when OG CW's are released the midsole is the way it should be and not painted.

So your telling me your beat fire red 3's don't have cracking?

The Less Easier it is to mess a shoe up from reg wear n tear is a always a plus n my book.

 

[mj 23]

Honestly I prefer that maroon/ burgundy on the grey toes than the red, but to each his own

 

[maxsand]

So let me get this straight, the midsole is painted so that's y yall are not boppin?

 

[Xristosak]

 
not one crack

Ducktals.....j/k. I won't make you prove it, but that good. I won't if thats forthe majority as well.

CO-SIGN!! But I have to admit, you lost me for a second when you wrote "less easier", lol

I can't picture how a 13 will look with midsole cracking it's probably gonna look really bad.

 

[SteveSteve72]

Yeah it's going to look terrible.

 

[Xristosak]

Honeslty, having the painted mid soles is a pi** poor excuse. Look at the 3m's and the black/white, black/reds, and squadrons from last year. They all had the suede mid soles. I don't remember anyone complaining about them
