Sadly this shoe does not seem to be apart of the remastered program. Just b/c it has the Swoosh branding doesn't hide the fact that the shoes have a stiff, fake/forced tumbled leather upper. The quality of the leather isn't even on the same level as the 2011 release. Which is sad, b/c I love the TB III. My 2001's are my go to still to this day. I love the look of the shoe aside from the thick elephant print and deeper cut on the ankle. It's no real surprise that these did not sell out. I will reluctantly be returning mine to Nike.

Nike let me buy the shoes early. I was very excited for the shoes to arrive. I got the package and opened the box to find that the quality of leather was not as buttery smooth and soft as the 2011 true blue. The tumbled look of the 2016 pair is very simulated and not true to what tumbled leather really looks and feels like. Looking into the craftsmanship of the shoe, the left shoe had excess glue around the toebox. Further inspection there was a small horizontal cut on the leather on the medial side of the shoe that was about 5mm long. The midsole pant under the true blue portion of the shoe where the viz-air is, has very little paint on it. You can still see the polyurethane material and the paint is not smooth because it wasn't fully painted. I still suggest to ... MoreNike let me buy the shoes early.

Very satisfied with the fit and feel of the shoe. In comparison with the 2011 pair, it doesn't stand up to the quality of materials. I wish I took a photo of the dependencies but I boxed them back up and shipping them back right now as I'm writing this review. I give it 1 star of quality of materials and craftsmanship but 5 star on the rest! I already talked to a Nike rep and getting another pair in exchange.

I love these shoes and they were a great deal! Super happy with my purchase! They are in amazing condition as well buying sneakers on eBay is the best way to go because I never have to worry about a thing!
I have always loved these sneakers and use to wear them casually and for many different sports years ago. My wife decided to buy a pair for me as a gift. I feel the cost is extremely prohibitive but they are great sneakers and I will wear them as long as they last which hopefully is a long time at that cost. I'd also be afraid to wear them in certain areas where crime is high for fear someone would steal them.
Im really satisfied with the shoe I really think im going to wear these a lot thanks! Although I wish he wouldve described not having the proper insoles for these shoes. (Left shoe has some type of Jordan 14 insole). Shouldve caught it as well myself. Overall legit seller.
3s & 4s are my favorite Jordan signature shoes, especially when they carry the OG 'Nike Air' heel branding. Black Cement is a favorite colorway. These 3s are "legend". Very happy to get them on-foot. Made with soft tumbled leather, higher quality than most other Jordan retros (AJ 1s esp.) The elephant print really looks good against the black upper, with just enough contrasting grey & hits of red. One could make a strong argument for the Black Cement AJ 3 as one of the best Jordan signature releases ever.
So glad i won this AUCTION.! These kicks are in even better shape than I thought they would be. Sometimes it's hard to tell exactly even when the pics are pretty good. Would definitely buy again! Thanks!
