TB Air Jordan III – International Release

True Blue Air Jordan III

True Blue Air Jordan III

News leaked a while back about the return of the True Blue Air Jordan III, and the images that hit the web earlier this week ended all the They Say. We got word yesterday that the TB Air Jordan III will be an international release only. That’s exactly what the e-mail said folks.

Hopefully Jordan Brand will give the states True Blue love because God knows we all could use another pair. No additional info was passed our way about the specific locations, so keep checking back for updates.

Got more details? Don’t be shy, drop a line in the CS.

  3. ^Not sure, but that sucks if JB doesn’t drop them in the US. Maybe it will be like they did with the Cool Grey Spiz’ikes.

  22. Comment by Converse King May 30th, 2009 at 11:17 pm

    That’s a decent looking shoe. But since they’re Jordans they’re very likely to be overpriced.

  23. Comment by futastar May 30th, 2009 at 11:23 pm

    MisterMcFly23 I agree with you 100%. Hopefully they do the true blues like they did the cool grey spizikes and release them to us later in the year because if they don’t me and JB gonna have to have a talk.

  24. Comment by SPRADLEY8 May 30th, 2009 at 11:23 pm

    Orlando and L.A. in the Finals???
    Now, with all the Kobe and LeBron Nike puppet commercials on TV,
    you think Adidas and Nike will work out something for a Dwight and Kobe commercial??? So much for a Kobe VS. LeBron Finals…!

  31. Comment by His Airness May 31st, 2009 at 12:01 am

    And what the heck is this BS?
    Are you kidding me, JB?
    I guess I am gonna have to look in sites like PYS or Marqueesole when they release… this is not a smart idea!!!

  32. Comment by DICErz May 31st, 2009 at 12:29 am

    What the hell is wrong with JB whoever is running things must be smoking crack man for real I was looking forward to Aug man they don’t want to bring the true blues back out here but they want to feed us this fusion crap

  38. Comment by charlies May 31st, 2009 at 1:53 am

    honestly without a source still maakes me feel that there is something fishy. If anything it would only release in the us, but that my two cents.

  39. Comment by starz May 31st, 2009 at 2:38 am

    equis damn that suk’s bro you already had your b day outfit and shit well who know’s i just know that im ganna have my money right from now till december and especially next year!

    LMAO everyone getting hyped about the TB3’s for nothin!!!!

    I was just hoping to get an extra pair

  42. Comment by T-LoC May 31st, 2009 at 3:25 am

    This info is FALSE!!! I work for Foot Locker in NYC and I was standing right there this morning purchasing the nubucc 12’s when my general manager gave the word from our DM that we’re getting these 3’s in August along with the package too!!!

  43. Comment by starz May 31st, 2009 at 4:08 am

    t-loc forealz!? thats whats up bro good lookin out can you do us a favor and myabe get pictures of the 60+ package early?

  44. Comment by T-Rav May 31st, 2009 at 5:55 am

    T-LoC, I’m just gonna choose to believe you and save my money for this release. I don’t believe for one second that an OG colorway would be an international exclusive.

  46. Comment by Shaun May 31st, 2009 at 8:13 am

    This is the worst news ever. Go Lakers.

  47. man this is BS!! the only release of the yr i was waiting on and JB messed it up.

  48. I don’t f*** around with stuff like this….when these hit Marqueesole, I ordered em that day…..Yeah, I paid alot, but to me it’s worth it, especially if this crappy news is actually true, which I hope it isn’t…….

  49. LAst international release was the black gold spizikes, and canada got them, so im hoping we get these

  50. I don’t believe it. The grey Spiz’ike’s were suppose to be an International release only and ended up here. I still have my 01’s which are piss yellow on the back so I do want another pair or 2 but I think these will release here especially since JB knows they will sell out.

  51. Comment by RICHIE May 31st, 2009 at 11:13 am

    ^23edge LMAO

  52. Comment by Dope Boy Fresh May 31st, 2009 at 11:16 am

    I KNOW WHERE TO GET THESE AT!!! And no I would not be paying those HYPEBEAST prices. I had the Cool Grey Spizikes before they released in the states and I know that this place will have these too. I ended up passing on the black/gold and the purple/lime Spizikes and this place had all 3 of them. They also got the Miro 7s last year. As well as the Titanium XX3 and of course all the CDPs.

    BUT I’m in retirement status and I’m actually selling all of my sneakers. Check my stuff out at dopekicksandtees.blogspot.com Everything must go.

  53. Don’t believe what you read on some message boards about the Air Jordan 3 True Blues being an international release only.

    The exact release date hasn’t been put out there yet, but, rest assured, that Europe & Asia will see these released first and then they’ll hit the US shores.

    So, now that you know, check out the OSD Talk Show on Wednesday at 9:30 PM for the exact US release date at http://www.obsessivesneakerdisorder.com/.

  54. Those motherphuckers @ JB n GO LAKERS!!!

  61. Comment by Eric May 31st, 2009 at 3:13 pm

    This really blows, I hope JB pulls a fast one on us and releases it later throughout the year.

  62. Comment by trey pound May 31st, 2009 at 3:22 pm

    u do realize that the U.S. is considered an international state?. . . . so saying its an international release can mean that its releasing anywhere there is a retail store that sells nike/jordan merchandise in the world, that is unless you guys have somethin else to tell me

  63. Comment by macabrecrown666 May 31st, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    Everyone here is acting like sneaker shops in other countries don’t ship to the U.S. I got my cool grey spizikes from snipesshop and paid retail for them, and this was before they released over here.

  64. The pack thats comming out around the same time as the true blues…..are they the 60+ pack?

  65. ^^^^^^^ yes its the 60+ or DMP 3 pack consisting of Raptors and Orlando VIIs and the TB IIIs will release in the U.S…. dont worry. International release just means they will also be releasing at accounts worldwide.

  66. Comment by starz May 31st, 2009 at 5:09 pm

    yeah T. its the air jordan 7 60+ package comes with the raptor 7’s and new colorway of the orlando magic 7’s trey pound you serious! thats whats up its not turning out that bad anymore! :D

  67. almost nothing is limited anymore, so I bet these things hit alot of online spots in August…..the companies always pump everyone up talkin’ about how the release numbers are gonna be really low, and then you see em everywhere….you’ll probably be able to get these at the gas station, or get a free pair when you order a pizza from Dominos.

  68. FUCk cum on JB pls release in dem US they fuckin Beautiful

  69. Comment by edizzle May 31st, 2009 at 5:50 pm

    wait..doesnt international release means it will release everywhere?? international means “concerning or belonging to all or at least two or more nations” according to the dictionary. unless the word is supposed to be overseas release only.

  70. Comment by BUSTED SNEAKERS May 31st, 2009 at 5:57 pm

    ^^^^international also mean outside of one’s nation……

  71. Comment by XkrispyELI May 31st, 2009 at 6:07 pm

    G-roc, when they say an “international release,” that means only europe?

  72. Well, do you guys always expect to hear good news? We have to hear the bad from time to time, and this is the time. Lmao

    That´s nice! Looking forward to getting these babies…

  85. I justed talked to Nike as it stands G-Roc is correct. International in “Nike Lingo” means anywhere but the US! So, right now we are a$$ out! Unless Sneaker Game is tight you can cop up to a size 12. Right now and its not the Bay! Good luck-

    P.S,

    A lot can change between now and then!

  86. ^ its just not justed! Lol a little upset right now! I’m a 13-14

  90. Comment by jaime June 1st, 2009 at 11:57 am

    I wouldn’t stress about the ‘international only’ title if you want a pair. I copped a pair of Cool Grey Spiz’ikes when they FIRST droped wile in Paris becuase (A) they’re clean and (B) they were rumored to be international only. What happened later that year?? JB dropped them in the states…
    Don’t stress these, they’ll drop in the states.

    G-Roc, good looking on the update. It a shame they’ve made it an international release. It seems like Europe/Japan have gotten a fair share of exclusives I’d of liked. Ahh well…

    TokyoMike: I don’t get why someone would pay $345 on Marquesole for a new pair. For $345 you’re starting to approach the value of the 01 pairs. I dunno if its just me but if I was to spend that much on a pair of TB 3S I’d rather spend a bit more and get another pair of 01s.

    royal swagness: “R guys r dumb” judging from your post I don’t think you’re one to be calling people dumb.

  101. ^^Charles…..I look at it this way…..I spend ALOT on kicks….I make a GOOD salary, so $345 on one pair at this point in my life is NOT alot of cash to me. If I was 18yrs old and strapped for cash, no way…..but that’s not even close to being the case. I bought used Supreme SB’s for $500, constantly buy new pairs of FBT’s for over $300 a pair….I’m financially in a place to do it and not have to worry about it……

  109. Comment by young sneakerhead June 6th, 2009 at 3:02 pm

    ***starz*** confirmed from the same source as well. the international bull is only a qs, meaning that the shoes will be a limited release here in the states but a qs internationally. hope this helps

  110. Comment by jayy June 9th, 2009 at 4:59 pm

    So let me get this correct. The True Blue 3’s “ARE” going to be release in the USA but, going to be limited?
