    Jordan knows which shoes people will buy regardless of quality, so they know they can get away with lesser materials on them. Vice versa, they put quality materials on the experimental shoes to help bring people in, encouraging them to buy into the brand. Just my two cents...

    Aj 3 with finer lines on the elephant print, just like the OG, looks like one of the finest sneakers i have ever seen, even a not sneakerhead can confirm it. But at the moment u have those big strokes as you comented, the shoe looks very swaggy/funky thing. I wish the white/black cement future og models come with finer elephant print lines.

    I'm glad you were brutally honest with this review. They're still available online, which is crazy to think about. When these were first rumored to release this year I for sure thought I wouldn't be able to get a pair. It's funny that I have the opportunity to get them, but just chose not to because of that price tag to go alongside the cheap materials. I still want a pair though, being that it's my second favorite Jordan of all time, but I'm going to have to wait for these to hit an outlet or some type of sale.

Hope they truly remaster the Black Cement's when they come out again. This one is a disgrace, to me anyway; and yes, I had the OG's. Appreciate your reviews.

    NW have you been doing those app raffles? I really hate them and don't think they're as efficient as the old school phone calls. I'm bringing it up here because this pair is mass produced and I have a feeling I won't get selected once again. I've never been selected by the way and there have been pairs in stores except for the Shattered Backboards 2.0.

However I do agree the leather is better on the 2011s than this release and I wasn't even impressed by those either. Not worth the 220 price tag. My 2011s are starting to show some wear so I may pick them up if the price is right

    @Citybreakdancerman10 8 років тому

    I don't understand why JB uses completely different leather on different colorways of the same shoe, released only a month apart. Same thing with the insole, one will get the thin gray outolite and the next get the thick red. Material availability guess, but you never know what you are going to get.

      I'll take retail over resale any day. Jordan's are £170 in my country but resell adds a minimum of £30 onto the price. TBH £170 for a pair of Jordan's in nowadays climate is equal to the £110 20yrs back. If you have a problem with prices don't buy them ps Lebrons are now more expensive than Jordan's in my country now

      Its not about the amount of leather out there. Its about how its processed. Plus, leather mostly comes from third world countries....bad economies in the West meant that they had to drop prices to sell their inventory. The price of Jordans is about nothing but greed. I recently read that it takes like $16 to produce a Jordan retro....

    Is it true this laster version of the 3's has the best cushioning specially the heel compared to even the previous years released or is just the same ?
    Never had 3's or 4. Have the 1's but I almost dont rock them at all coz my feet specially the heel feels tired walking with them after a few hrs so I mostly rock the 11,12. as its really comfortable to on long walks on. I like how it looks specially with the OG nike logo on but I am thinking can I be walking comfortably ( heel cushion wise ) on them Thanks bro
