  9. I liked the color way.. Didn’t like the “Swede” in the middle thought material should have been the same as the toe area

  11. People are so stupid. When a quality Jordan 3 comes out with no hype everyone says they are trash. Bet if they were talked about for 3 months before release & given a nickname like UNC3s or Carolina3s people would be going crazy over them. Dont believe in hype its not real, Its marketing

  13. This could have easily been an OG c/w back in the day. They look way better in hand than in pics. If this would have been a SE UNC they would be reselling for $500+ right now just like the XV SE BR did.
