AIR JORDAN 3 BLACK CEMENT - NOVEMBER 23, 2024

[ALi]

I’d say those are more than decent. Type of leather matches, elephant print same on both and not too high, and it has the sleek toebox. Definitely keep for me.

Thanks I might just stick with these. Other pairs I had were definitely not as good. I can't expect perfection even though we should be getting it with the $220 price. That's crazy to me how they are charging so much for shoes with so much flaws

SNKRS pair was cheeks. Very happy with my Nice Kicks pair.

Yeah we can’t settle for the amount we’re paying but still gotta keep expectations in check since they’re mass produced shoes. Just have to find one we’re happy with.

second pair came in from dark initiatives, vietnam pair like the shock drop. one of the toe caps has a slight curve to it but IDC. the print is consistent.

The correct heel tab spacing on @threeforthewin’s pair alone makes it an entirely different shoe. The “AIR” sits properly spaced above the cement print without damn near touching it like the VW1 (Vietnam) pairs. Overall shoe sits higher and seemingly uses the same mold from the Reimagined WCs. I just scoured eBay for over an hour and couldn’t find a LNM (China) pair to save my life unless I somehow overlooked it. I’m going to need cats to post their sources/vender/seller and help us all out. If these China pairs are existing like that then it seems Nike only allowed them to make a few size runs. The call to change/tweak the shape came from Nike, not Vietnam. My desert elephants were made in the VW1 (Vietnam) factory and we all know how the shape came out on those. They were flawless and just like Reimagined WCs if not better in terms of shape. I’m so thrown for a loop and don’t know what to think that at this point I’m just going to rock my 2018s until we get this all sorted out lol. Damn.

dhtowng I think I found a seller on Ebay that has multiple LNM pairs size 10. I will let you know after he gets back to me with pics for verification. From initial glance, the elephant print height is quite high.. but the shape is on point.

Seems to be a consistent quality on the lmn in pics I’ve seen. Trade a slightly more sloped shape than good Nam pairs for higher toe cap EP

All of the “2018 pair is better” people disappeared once the 2024 pair dropped. Haven’t heard a peep from any of them ever ever since these released. Lol.

Don't go on IG then. FULL of 2018 lovers in all the comments.

So is the LNM pair considered the best?

Has anyone copped from Oneness? Thinking of copping from there cause it’s cheaper but not sure how those pairs are coming out.

I got my pair from them for under retail. Will be delivered tomorrow will keep you posted.

It’ll say it on your box too

Made in China

My pair of SNKRS came in, the left pair's front elephant print looked like a lopsided hairline while the right pair was pristine...I returned it within 1 hour of having them

was just at Nike collective store in Pasadena CA, they still have size 11, but it was left overs from people doing the mixing/ matching bs. might as well call it the what the AJ3s cause it literally had different leather texture (smooth vs pebbled), different elephant print (light faded vs deep dark inprints) and backtab alignment (right shoe was slightly slanted).

If you have a shop account you do. Definitely not working for me and others in different threads. I’d get my wife a pair if I could use the code.

Bet, definitely post pics

While I prefer darker EP, it’s not a big deal to me.

What would make these damn near perfect however, is some semi-premium tumbled leather.

…shame these don’t have that.
