Hey Guys! Today we are checking out the Nike LeBron 3 in the Barbershop colorway. Let us know your thoughts on them down below and whether or not you plan on grabbing yourself a pair. Thanks for watching!
These look cool. I'd want to see them in hand before I consider them. But if Jodi approves, definitely have to see them in hand. They look like a great outdoor shoe.
Always Dope to see the earlier LeBron shoes get some love, especially the threes. This color way looks way better on camera than in stock photos I may actually consider buying these now!
I owned two pairs of the originals (white/navy & black/gold) and they are some of the best outdoor shoes I ever owned. Those early lebron's (azg-iv) were TANKS! unfortunately the soles fell off a few years ago (this was right before I discovered reglueing was a thing) so I trashed them. It actually happened right after they retroed those cws and I passed (cause my pairs were still good).
I live in the greater Pittsburgh area and deal with Ohio natives a lot and they have all said AK-Run. I'm not sure if it's an accent thing cuz it sure is spelled like AK- Ron
I'm dying for a LeBron 4 retro. As a kid, I've never had a happier time than going to the Nike flagship store in San Francisco, back then called Niketown near Union square and picking up a pair of these. My classmates made fun of them. One kid called them ugly and I responded with, so's your mom but the fact that you exist means there's hope for everything. Got called in to the principal's office for a nice chat about the etiquette of conversing with peers but at the end, he said my shoes looked cool. Good times....
My brother, I still have a pair of the OG 4s in the box that I bought back in 2007. Tried to hoop in them a few years back on my birthday and the damn strap ripped off immediately 😂😂😂
I love the lebron 3’s too. I had the white/black/crimson cw back in 06. I tried grabbing the retro two years ago, 🙍🏻♂️👎🏼. The CTK lebron 3’s = grails. 🔥👍🏼👍🏼
I had the black and red/crimson pair when they came out. For me it was one of the best overall basketball sneaker for both indoor and outdoor courts. I played in mine for years until they finally had no more grip. The only issue I had with the is the weight, they were heavy duty. ✌️
LeBron became the NBA all-time scorer today. And I got this to commemorate it. Since its on sale already and then they chop an additional 20% off. Awesome pick up! I'm glad I waited.
I had my front zoom pod popped after around a year playing outdoor. Other than that, they’re great. Oh also, the metal lace aglets might cut them laces if one is to fast very tight. Luckily I didn’t ripped my 2018’s. I did back in the 05 tho 😆
Favourite bron shoe, great shoe! The traction is great on court, lockdown is great and the build quality was solid. Only beef is, the lacelets pop laces. At least on the original pairs it did since lacelets were metal. The snugness and Zoom compensate for the weight. Bouncy shoe!
The OG style lace aglets were metal and would shred your laces apart over time. Otherwise my first and favorite model of Lebrons to play in despite the weight issue.
The LBJ 3 were the most comfortable shoe I've ever owned but they were not the lightweight. Had the bred colorway on the release day. Retail was like $90 bucks!!
Had the all black lows of this model back in the day, those had the ballistic nylon and you are correct with the zoom air being comfortable and yes they do have the rope lacing and they were fairly light.
I got these off end clothing and laughed at how bulky they are. I started thinking about why lebrons never is really injured............. gotta be the shoes
They're almost giving this shoe away on StockX currently. Just received my pair this morning. I'm a sz US13 & I paid like $118 after fees & shipping. Everyone who messes with sneakers needs 2 pairs of these if they can have 'em for what I paid.....
One of the best performing shoes when it came to cushioning and all around fit....BUT... I got tired of changing the laces cuz the metal lace loops kept on eating them up. Also the leather gave a little over time so the forefoot has a little more space than id like.....
Lol no way I m wearing my 180 dollar retro classics for outdoor basketball man. I m going to wear the 30 dollar Walmart junk and I don’t care how quickly I burn through them.
Aww man these flopped. No one wanted these so many colors they could’ve chosen for the Lebron 3 and they did this lol smh 🤦🏾♂️ good luck to the Lebron line in the future.
I owned the original black/red pair. Played ball in em so much and owned the white original pair destroyed those. I wore these barber shops today. Love it feels so good. A little sneaker celebration for the Lebron James and Bronny James on the same team
Nice review, I think that I had these in white with gold accents back in the day. Very sturdy shoe, my pair lasted for years before dying. It's cool to see these coming back, just hoping for more colorways. Weartesters puts out another dope video!
These were great back in the day. The 2&3’s were the only main line LeBron’s out of the first four that didn’t feel like boots made for big men. In HS we got to pick which shoes we wanted from the team pack and these were my lock door my sophomore year. It was like hooping in a AJ 12 or 13. Really great. Oh, what did I pick for my freshman year you ask? One of the greatest shoes I’ve ever played in that they refuse to retro… the 20-5-5. Bring ‘em back!
I have a pair in black and gold few year ago. I think the heel cap is soft when compare to original and after playing a few games, my Achilles are starting to get pain. Do u have the same feelings?
these were my team shoes in high school, got them in 2008 and i wore them semi consistently balling/doing labor jobs till they got ruined in a flood last year
oh man back in the day i had the lows and beat the hell out of that shoe playing outdoors. you are not lying when you said it's built like a tank coz it was.
I got the "Houston Oilers" colorway when they came out and I love them. I ought to play in them but they're so pretty and I have other options so never did. But from a casual perspective they are comfortable
I had the black and red when they originally came out. They were very cool looking and a robust shoe. The rigid pointed tab on the heel can dig into the back of ankle a little if u are trying to play in them
