Maaan looking at these shoes and seeing that they are coming out is crazy! Being an 80′s baby these joints are classics. Lets you know that JB isn’t doing to well selling his other products, but at the same time he is listening to the street and giving y’all what y’all wanted so have fun copping! Got the ones that dropped a couple years ago so I’m goood.
MUST COP!!! Online only though??? I NEVER have any luck with that
For $200.00…. what a rip off… Jordan trying to get that Bron money lol…. Quality from the pics look nice… but $200!!! Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahaahah…
Keep it…..
Honestly I have no problem forking out $200 for these
Online release only, LOL gonna be a lot of heartbroken lil boys. Love 3′s but I can’t justify buying some that I already have minus a Nike sign. Good luck suckers. And thats 2 days before my b day.
Man nike can go kick rocks for this bull$#!t. St8 up & down . $200.00? Online only? Gtfoh!!
GOOD LUCK TO NIKE SERVERS IF ITS TRUE ITS AN ONLINE RELEASE ONLY HAHAHAHA SHIT MIGHT CRAZY IN 1.4 SECONDS!!!
Dudes doing reviews of these on youtube already. LOL actin like it’s a totally different shoe and ish.
I’m ok dropping $200.
But a Wednesday?
And online only?
C’mon man!
Online only is going to make this more harder to get…100 million people online at the same DAMN! time.
Figured they’d do something like this make ‘em extremely limited and what not but hey at least the asg pack drops the week after
What these suckers don’t know Jordan is on the bottom of the shoe not nike
Damn , I done sold my 2011 Jumpman Airs thinking these were dropping.
I’m still mad at the price tag, but it is what it is.
They should’ve just dropped as a QS with no release date.
Dang I was hoping to see suckers lining up and getting trampled over.
Trying to make me broke $200. Ha if they think people are going to get a big buy. And if that only online thing is true. Two ha’s for that.
What up with that????
I never can buy kicks on line on release dates due to the weak ass server always crashing. Oh we’ll.
hope my boy can get me these.. i get 2 favors for the year..this may be one of em!!!
Not knline only other stores will get them
my boy at finishline said they will be hitting stores seen it on the there inventory list or w.e don’t quote me but i cant seeing it being online only…
Eff-that! I ain’t beat for payn 2bills fro em joints. These 3s arnt even my top 5 alltime. They dope.but not top 5 for me to be payn xtra for em. Like s’body else said , I still got my joints frm coupl yrs ago. Ill hav 2 b good wit that
Got a pair of these already minus the Nike Air. I’m not one to buy 2 pair of the same shoe. If my 20ll’s were beat I would buy but since they aren’t it’s a no go. Good luck to all who want them though.
Yeah, they are nice. Hmm, $200.00 and online only. And on Nike.com too… Wow, no Eastbay, no Foot Locker, and no Champs… Good luck!
sucks that they are doing this online nike only BS… these will be impossible to get. just like that damn DB 9s.. nikes site is so lame…
Just give me the time of the day, and I’ll get online, and see if I can cop a pair just for fun!
Old heads who really care about the “Nike Air” should already have 3 or more pair of these posted. The young cat’s never saw MJ wear ANY shoe with “Nike Air” so that should be a total non-issue!!! If you ain’t got White AJIII’s already, you’re hella young or hella lame anyway so… 10 years ago, I would have paid $300+ NO question but today, tat’s not enough to make me break bread! I actually feel robbed being a loyal JB supporter since 87!
I know yall young niggaz dont remember when Js came out on Wednesdays. 80s babies only!
please tell me what time they drop
to many other nice sneaks coming out to be bothered really theyre not at all impressive or different as far as jays go mos definitely not worth two bill. jays are a dime a dozenbut on a positive note if you get congrats mayne 2013 is already full of other ways to spend ya benjies I swear to you these joints as far as symbolism goes are not the last that youll see
A must cop! dont flip keep it lock through Nikestore tweeter account!
This Air Jordan 3 is Back to basics! a must cop!
