that's where my war stands..... not really worried about water..... it's the Blue & Black Jean Dye.... UGH!!!

someone needs to come up with that spray...they would be winning!!

Doing laundry works magic too..

 
Buy New Jeans and wash them before you wear them….

I don't THINK SO!

I wear 501 Levis - a lll the time…   When they are brand new.. They Kill my sneakers

Can't go out on the town with Old Washed Jeans bro

I can't -  Need a New CRISPY FRESH PAIR! ALWAYS!

plus levis are Cheap as hell price wise

Don't tell me you one of the dudes that wear the tags with them too..

Just got my Sport Blue 3's and I'm not happy with how light and cheap they feel. It feels like I am holding a fake pair of J's. I'm comparing it to my 88 Cements, at least with those, it's sturdy, and the leather feels buttery.  When I took the Sport Blue 3's out of the box... my first impressions are they feel extremely LIGHT and the leather feels different. It feels cheap like synthetic.

Why couldn't they make these feel like the 88 Cements but with Black and Blue?

The reason they feel cheap and synthetic is just that, they are cheap and synthetic LOL. @chronicsneaker  i felt the same way when i looked at mine but ay man it is what it is

I dont need a connect to get shoes. If I get them, I get them . If I dont, then no biggie. Besides, I highly doubt they'll remember me the next time I come in.

Second, YAMBS? No thanks, Im married.

Yep they'll remember you if you're a regular. Good to hear that you're married.

 The 88's were clearly premium sneakers coming in at $200 when all other shoes at the time we're $170. These 3 years later still come in under the $200, but people expect the quality to be the same?? Compare These to gr's like the infrareds.

yeah i agree 88's were premium sneakers as reflected with the price tag and shouldn't be compared; however, the quality on these compared to recent  GR  3 releases are much worse in my opinion .

 

[rchrstphr]

'88s premium? Ha. I'll take the leather on the Flight Huarache QS that just dropped over that plasticy crap any day.

 

[rsec]

88's  are premium for the 3s... forget the flight hurache.  how about the leather quality that they had on the retro 6 spizikes!!!!

 

[rsec]

the leather on those were a++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ x1million 

i wish they used that quality on all my js

havent goten these in yet, but honestly dont see much of a quality diffrence between 88s and TB3 2011 and the fire red 3's that came out last year.. i have all three and all of them are pretty comparable.

well if you haven't gotten them or haven't had them in your hand, you won't be able to tell. There is a HUGE difference in these and the 88's and TB's, and i own them all

really like these.. so much was contemplating getting a 4th pair. had the 9, but i just cant risk dropping 205without   seeing them first. my luck it would be some fugazi *****  looking pair

 

[Magic33]

Yeah, I don't think it was that the 88's were premium. It was Nike Air, that's what made it premium. Can't call it premium, when what was retroed in 2001 was better.

88's > fire reds > true blues

Part of the fire reds were 88 quality. The quality control of those was terrible though.

There must be large variation in the shoes people get. I thought the 88's quality was pretty high and the TB's pretty low. Those to me were very plasticky. I haven't received these yet to comment but I assume they fall I between the 88's and TB's.

agreed.  I think the "premium" of the 88;s are the Nike air tab and 200 dollar price tag..lol 

 

[hulk7280]

but i love my 88s and have been wearing em to the ground.

People kill me talking bout bc 3's have "real" "value" [emoji]128514[/emoji] Most of u never even saw jordan play in them but love to use that as an excuse. Its all bull. As much as the og sneakerbots will try to tell you different, this shoe is a modern classic. If these came out along side the bc 3's back in the day, people woulda threw a sh*tfit. Imo, since I love blue over red, I favor the cw to the bc, but not the quality. I double copped for sure. Hype is just off because it was a gr. Had these been limited, again ppl would be in here throwing sh*tfits. Glad they didnt. I'm absolutely in love with this shoe. Make no mistake, Jordan would have worn these. Lastly, stop comparing these to the 88's. The 88's were clearly premium sneakers coming in at $200 when all other shoes at the time we're $170. These 3 years later still come in under the $200, but people expect the quality to be the same?? Compare These to gr's like the infrareds.

This, my pair was 130 flat. Would have gladly paid retail but my friend through me an oop. This colorway is classic. The translucent sole bothered me a bit but it's ok. My only real gripe is the nubuck use instead of leather. These could have easily been an OG colorway. Want to seea blue 11 with this outsole one day

I just got my pair in from shoepalace. I am happy with them. I like these a lot. I am also happy I was able to buy these since I haven't bought a pair of J's for retail since I think the Motorsports VI. I'm also happy that the elephant print on both my pairs are similar unlike some of the other pairs I've seen on here. I think I'm going to get a second pair.

Can you post a picture of the socks they came with? I always wondered what socks the shoes will be bundled with.

How did the Black Flip 3s fair in the states? I'm not sure if they're considered premium but they sure do feel like it with the all leather sock liner, all leather tongue, no paint problems with the heavy use I've put them through... I bought them from Nike Stadium in the Philippines and they cost the same as any other retro that drops there (roughly $190).
