Mine started doing that and I didn't care, but I think they already started separating on the medial side, that's why I stopped wearing them. I need to stop being lazy and fix them.

Anyone know of someone around LA you can pay to do that kind of repair? For slight sole separation

Man if this is true 2022 model
But they look like 94s.
It's a 94 with a new hang tag.

Damn! Your air bubble looks fogged which is usually a bad sign for them close to falling apart or is it just the angle of the pic?Wore my 2011s today, maybe for the last time…

It's fogged. Full transparency, I did baby these over the years and probably didn't wear them as much as I should/could have.
How often should you be wearing them to prevent things like this? I was told just wearing them lightly around the house once every couple months is enough to maintain the sole over 10+ years

It helps but it can also depend on your weight as well.
Periodically defogging the air units helps too, imo, to maintain pressure and avoid collapse.

the air Jordan 3's that came out in the early 2010s were terrible, I remember getting the black cements and they were already cracking after a few months, it was after this that Jordan brand finally dug in to improve quality (and prices went up)

Those 2010-11 3's were not only chipping heavy, they also had the patent leather shine on em.
So trash

The air pressure box? What why? How do they even correlate?
Edit: pair actually looks like it was sole swap of the 94 and they added the air pressure box.
SMH!! Playing to many games

My 2011 pairs are strictly for running local errands in. The chipping happened quickly with those and while I'm not a "quality" person, the plastic they called leather was absolutely terrible. The folds and creases were intense.

And of course midsole paint chipping is different than midsole cracking.
Sometimes they get conflated.

I was in my Senior year in high school when the 2011 White Cement 3s came out. I wore them joints to death lol I absolutely loved them and I hope this pair isn’t insanely aged because a fresh clean pair is always best.

Looks like a cooler if you ask me. I dont have a clue what is going on in that pic. All I know is its a 1994 WC. Maybe somebody wanting to release those "First" images. That aint it. I dont know if they are swapped because the yellowing is consistent with mine. Might have been a paint job on the black area though.

It’s the air pressure box without the white sleeve. Looks soleswap to me, the midsole isn’t perfectly align to the sole.
I’m guessing he just did it for likes/follows

Dude replied immediately in his IG comments after he posted that it was simply a pair of 94's with a Pressure box. He wasn't trying to pass these off as anything actually releasing.
