Here's a reference point for you... The leather on the white/cement 3's and true blue 3's are very very very similar to the leather on the white/red XX3's.
maybe you should get your fingers checked feel the leather
plus your vision and smell
your eyes are fooling you
the leather on the 23's is not the same as the 2011 3's
its a better quality leather on the 23's and it smells like real leather
do you have both ?
i do
if so smell both shoes
even after 3 years and a few wears the 23 dont smell or feel like a chemical like leather like this years 2011 cement's do
You're right, they're not the same. But I never said that. I said they were very similar.
Leathers can have 13 or more different steps within the manufacturing process. This number can grow when dealing with the different top coats, finishes, treatments, and chemical agents used and the time between each step of the process.
The difference between the two leathers is one different step in the manufacturing process. This step is the difference between the extra sheen that is seen on the white/red XX3's, and not on the white/cement 3's. And while they are not exactly the same, they still come from the same vendor. So again, they are very similar.
Also, I'll assume we are both referring to the vamp/quarter panel area that extends to the top of the toe box as well as the piece at the top of the tongue. These parts contain the higher quality leather while the rest are a synthetic leather.
they come from the same sweatshop
and thats Y3 in china thats the only similarity i could see
it seems to me you know something about leather though
