i been watching this guy since i was 16 im 23 now and i just have to shake his hand before i die cause he never switched up on us and i apricate that so much
glad you do what you do. I appreciate how straight to the point you are in your videos and how you go really in depth with the details. As a viewer, I can really tell you just love sneakers and that's dope. Thank you and have a great day.
Dope comparison👌. Gotta love the OG shape of 3s. I just wish Nike would be more consistent with the toe box elephant print. Some pairs are cut nice and low. While others are cut way to high. Just my preference.
I bought my first pair in 1988 when I was sixteen. Back then, we called them ‘88s, ‘89s, etc. I owned what today’s kids call white cement, then I bought the Red 88’s (the black heel base was red). I wish I’d kept them but there is something still off about the Retros and 2023 elephant print. It’s still… I dunno “off.” I want to buy them but which pair do you think is the closest to my old 1988’s?
I can see you went down 0.5 for the 2023s? Do you do that for all newer 3s or just these reimagined 3s? And if so, did going down work out better than staying TTS? Thanks in advance. Great early look as always
I agree…esp that Nike air on the heel tab of the 2023 “reimagined” 3s…way better…the 2013 nike air on 88s looks awkward/fake on the 2013…font seems more bold on “reimagined” which looks way better!
I gotta admit I’m kinda pissed they didn’t make the tongue part all puffy on the reimagined pair like the 2013 pair. As far as I can remember the tongue on the white cements have always had a fat puffy tongue. But I love everything else
The new shape of the 3 is so much better people don’t realize that the 3 wasn’t all fat and puffy looking with that phat tongue 👅 like most of the retros have been for the longest
That Nike air on the back heel tab on the 2023 looks way healthier than the Nike air on the heel of the 2013 “88” retro!!!😮 I’m digging the vintage/“reimagined” theme on these 3s!!!!
Idk man I’m 33 and I’ve had the 2013 pair but I think this one is so much better. I can see some folks not liking the vintage look but they got the OG shape down to the T dam near.
@@class7469same I’m 22 own both pairs rn and as much as I love the 2013 88 3s they are just inferior to the 23’ retro people just love being a contrarian
The toe shape and the painted back tab on the 2013 is garbage period. Also having the Jordan on the bottom vs Nike is another missed detail. Vintage details aside, the 2023 retro is much closer to an actual 1988 pair and that’s a fact.
All these cats on here talking about they don’t like the yellow on the 2023 version in three years are gonna be the main ones calling this the best white cement ever to release
There's no way , the 2023 is trash 🗑️ ,JB ruined em just like they ruined the Chicagos 1 high og with this lost and found bs. Ruined 2 classics. Thank God I own 2013 88s and 2015 Chicagos.
