White Cement IV Returning Spring/Summer 2025

The OG Nikes and Jordan’s made in Taiwan and Korea were made great imo
Hell yeah my OG 13s from Taiwan stood the test of time. I wore them for years. Can’t say I remember what the tongue said on my earlier Jordans.
These are the 4s I currently own and really all I need. This is strictly my opinion so no one needs to get heated, but in terms of shape and quality the reimagined blk/reds are the best of this group. Yeah, I know it’s not “OG” spec, but the leather quality, the softer midsole polyurethane and the toebox shape is on point.

In terms of what I would prefer to wear it would be the 2018 blk/reds if the toe box were better. I like the less bulky feeling even though it’s not “OG” shape. Rant ended, flame suit on…

I don’t see anyone getting heated you don’t need a flame suit. That’s a solid group of 4s, you have my full approval 😂 not that my opinion is a reflection of the majority at all. In fact I’m kinda on an island all on my own.
 
The WC 4’s are way more tech looking than the 3’s. The WC 3’s are more casual/lux look where as WC 4 are more sporty/hi tech version. It can be worn the same, but it’s small differences imo
To me they look like two totally different shoes and I absolutely still want the WC3s. This is my second time having the WC4s and I’m STILL waiting for reimagined 3s to drop in price. I’ve wanted reimagined and the free throw lines from back in the day. I hope they will just do a regular release of those shoes for once. That’s a shoe I would double up on without a doubt.
 
For me I'm a 3s over 4s guy.....but the fit will distinguish when I wear the WC3 or 4.

For 3s I can put on whenever and go.....but because I lace 4s so there's no movement of the Wings it means when I'm in 4s I'M NOT TAKING them off until the day is done you know.

I'll definitely find days to wear both tho....I also think 3s look better with pants/jeans and 4 look better with shorts so that'll help me too.
 
So many people posting doubles, triples and some quadruple pairs.

Is it safe to say everyone got their pairs?

Is it safe to say this was an easy release?

like, If you didnt get a pair, did you really put that much effort into it?
I’m gonna try my hand in store tomorrow since it looks like they’re widely available, I already ordered a pair on kickscrew but will probably just sell or cancel that pair if they let me

I dig what you're saying, but the last question never made sense to me. Most folks have some sort of threshold.

For me, if its not on the NEX website now, more than likely I'll pass. I saved myself $70-80 by not going the DSG route, even with a gift card and a couple of $20 rewards.

I can still want a shoe, but not press myself into a day and night search for them. Carmine 6 is my favorite Jordan and I didn't purchase one on release day years back. 4 years later, I got 4 pair and did not pay over $130 for any one of them DS. Sometimes these resellers play themselves. I let them kids do the work lol.
 
Might double up and get a 10 to test it out. The MBs out of the box first few wears had my pinky toes a little scared but that mostly went away, these on the other hand aren't like that at all.
Nevermind they’re pinching my pinky’s now lol
Appropriate username for this comment lol

WC3 >>> WC4

I love them both, but the 3s are better. And if you disagree, talk to me in 5 years after the mesh has yellowed on your 4s
for me I think the 3's look fine with jeans/pants but amazing with shorts

4's look great in both options (personally)

wc3/bc3's are goated doe

I agree with this. Although you can’t go wrong with either. The first time we see elephant print on a shoe and not sure, but one of the first times we see the splatter technique.

Aesthetically speaking though, the WC 3s have a cleaner look with less variations and texture going on so they’re easier to coordinate with any outfit.
 
There really wasn't anything special or even good about the '16 materials, and the fact that the mesh yellowed so quickly was sad. Even a VNDS pair looked so bad when they yellowed. It wasn't like the entire shoe looked nice and aged; it just looked odd.

I don't have these in-hand yet, but the shape/height/rolled over tongue alone beat the '16s. Unless a collector wants to have all versions, there's really no reason to own those anymore (except for maybe beaters I supposed).

MBs are NOTHING special material-wise and I expect these will be similar. Not sure why they go so hard on the PU coating; kind of a shame. I'd rather have some flaws and imperfection in the leather than super smooth and flawless with the plasticky PU coating.
Would mink oil help it or worsen it?
 
My First pair of Jordans were the 1989 BC 4's. Used my 14th Birthday money to go buy them. This was the best purchase in my entire life. Nothing made me more happier then putting them on and going outside to see if I could jump higher. I really thought I could. I really wish they could match the Black Durabuck that was used on the 1989 and 1999 pairs. What a beautiful shoe. Maybe one day they will figure it out. The WC 4's are also beautiful and glad to have a few pairs. On another note does anybody know who DTLR and Shoe Palace use to ship their shoes/ USPS, Fed Ex, or UPS/
 
Damn man.

Now I'm regretting not going for a 10.5 instead of the 2 size 11's I have coming in.

I love a snug fit but was shook about pinky kill.

KanyIZZY KanyIZZY How do these fit compared to the recent WC & BC 3's? Similar?

I would say they fit closer to the WC 3's (more TTS/roomy). The BC 3 was snug for the US pairs but the China pairs fit more TTS (like the WC 3). I think these are more on the roomy side/fit like the WC3.

For refernce:

WC IV - 10.5
WC III - 10.5
MB IV- 10.5
BC III (china) - 10.5
BC III (US) - 11
BC IV Reimagined- 11
