Air Jordan XX3 Premier Edition
Posted by Nick Engvall | Nov 17, 2008 The Air Jordan XX3 has seen it’s share of colorways, but the most famous colorway has yet to drop, until now. The Air Jordan XX3 Premier Edition featuring the black and red colorway that has become synonymous with “His Airness” sneakers is set to release.
The Premier edition will drop in the same way fashion the Titanium Edition did to start the Jordan XX3 collection off at the beginning of the year. Limited to 529 pairs, and available at only 23 stores, this version of the XX3 will surely be hyped beyond control. If you don’t recall how the Titanium release went, then a quick glance at eBay will let you know they are still going for $1000+. Someone say camp-out? These drop on December 23rd so get your gear ready, it’s gonna be cold! Lots of photos after the jump via TheShoeGame. |

Dec 22, 2008 at 10:49 pm

Nov 27, 2008 at 5:00 pm

Nov 18, 2008 at 4:52 pm

Nov 18, 2008 at 4:01 pm
I think these are the kicks in the new star trek trailer. captain kirk is wearing xx3’s as a kid when he’s running from the cops but i cant tell what color they are.
Nov 18, 2008 at 3:41 pm
they are kool but they kinda look fake
Nov 18, 2008 at 2:55 pm
I def. Agree with #10… The look like some ugly CDP S**T…. Don’t know what the hype is all about but I’ve seen WWAAAAYYY to many fakes in this exact colorway….
Nov 18, 2008 at 1:31 pm
Naw, I can live without these. These are the whackest colorway so far.
Nov 18, 2008 at 1:25 pm
NICEKICKS>
Youre right - These would fit right in. .These are made of the same material as the crappy 17s from the CDP. . .
These are not worth anything , this is a test - JB just wants to see if ppl really are wrapped around their finger
Im not even buying any of the Black friday XX3s bc they ugly
Nov 18, 2008 at 1:23 pm
YOU CAMP FOR THESE/ / / / You are AN IDIOT
Nov 18, 2008 at 12:55 pm
thanks jordan brand you suck!!!!!!!!!
Nov 18, 2008 at 11:19 am
YOU ARE ALL CRAZY. WHAT MAKES THESE SO SPECIAL??? JUST CUZ ANOTHER 529 PAIRS WILL EXIST, LIKE THE TITANTIUMS, YOU’ALL GOING NUTS OVER IT. GIMME A BREAK. YOU’RE ALL DELUSIONAL, AND YOU’ALL MAKING JB SO MUCH FILTHY RICH!!! CAMPING OUT FOR THESE, COME ON PPL. I WOULDN’T GET THESE EVEN IF THEY WERE A GENERAL RELEASE. YOU ALSO GOT THE 11/12 PACK DROPPING THAT WEEK AND THE MOTORSPORTS XX3. THAT IS OVERKILL. JB IS STEALING FROM YOU PPL, AND YOU PPL ARE LETTING IT HAPPEN. BESIDES, DIDN’T THE XX3 PHASE, DIDN’T THAT SHIP SAIL AWAY ALREADY. WE SHOULD BE WAITING FOR THE JORDAN 2009, AKA XX4. WHEN THAT COMES OUT, IT’LL MAKE THIS PAIR LOOK LIKE NOTHING. COME ON PPL, WISE UP PLEASE.
Nov 18, 2008 at 11:10 am
These are nothing but HYPE SHOES. I got sick camping out for the Titaniums and IMO, the Titaniums are still the best colorway to ever come out. These look really weird. The color combination makes it look really crappy and fake-ish.
Jordan Brand has gone lower than it could ever be in the shoe game. Lame release in my opinion
Nov 18, 2008 at 5:09 am
23’s r dead but if possible to cop will get a pair
Nov 18, 2008 at 2:30 am
These are sweet!! And they look WAAY better than the fake version that so many people been rockin since like Febuary!!! The red accents in the mid sole and red tops set these off right. If i’m lucky enuff (and i mean REAL REAL LUCKY) i’d be more than happy to fork over dat $230 price tag for a size 14. I’ll camp out for em if i get da chance. . . and get myself a nice X-Mas present.
Nov 18, 2008 at 12:43 am
OH GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK, NOT THAT STUPID 23 PAIRS FOR 23 STORES CRAP AGAIN. NO THANKS. THE TITANTIUM WERE OK TO DO THIS FOR, BUT NOW ANOTHER ONE??? ARE YOU KIDDIND ME…? YOU’ALL CAN HAVE ‘EM. I DON’T CARE THAT MUCH ANYMORE. I GOT SOME XX3′S ALREADY. THESE ARE OVER-RATED. I LIKE THE COLORWAY, BUT I KNOW I AM NOT GONNA GET THESE FIRST HAND, AND I AM SURE AS HELL NOT GONNA FORK OUT $1000.00 OR MORE TO BUY THEM FROM SOME SELLER…
Nov 17, 2008 at 11:56 pm
DOO DOO BROWN JORDANS! Awesome! [/sarcasm]
Nov 17, 2008 at 11:30 pm
maybe not worth camping out for, especially in the freezing cold. but if i could scoop em on release day i would. the XXIII’s grew on me over this past year i gotta say. its a real slick looking shoe, nice materials too.
love the shoe, hate the hype though.
Nov 17, 2008 at 11:26 pm
it’s “its”
Nov 17, 2008 at 11:04 pm
best 23 next to the three coming out friday
Nov 17, 2008 at 10:54 pm
Hmmm I dunno what to say.. its very hard to judge by these piss poor pictures.. you can clearly tell that the lighting is off (well there is very little light at all).. I have a feeling that these have potential but I’d like to see some better pics.
Nov 17, 2008 at 10:41 pm
they ugly but im a collector so im bout 2 cop as investment 4 da future but dats a hard week 4 me dat and the pack and than this week the hi 1s and then i want motorsport 23’s man jb seems to be gettin all my money in the next month startin sat
Nov 17, 2008 at 10:07 pm
Nope, not feeling these
Nov 17, 2008 at 10:03 pm
They nice but not going 2 da x treme 4 these.
Nov 17, 2008 at 9:14 pm
This does nothing for the XX3, in a positive sense, as the Titaniums…
But you BEST BELIEVE, cornballs are making plans to sleep outside for them.
Pretty sure many don’t have to “CALL OUT” of work for them, seeing as though most of them DON’T.
Might be the lighting, but they look “off” a bit.
Still, not worthy of a camp out. MISSED ME!
Nov 17, 2008 at 8:45 pm
these r ugly
Nov 17, 2008 at 8:39 pm
theyre straight. not at all ugly, just not as nice as the other BEAUTIFUL xx3’s.
Nov 17, 2008 at 8:26 pm
The Titanium’s were way sweeter than this pair but… LET ALL THE HYPE BEGIN AND THE HYPEBEASTS fight it out
Nov 17, 2008 at 8:23 pm
THEY LOOK TO FAKE!!!!!!!
Nov 17, 2008 at 8:13 pm
I’m ready for the AIR JORDAN 2009’s. These suck!!!
Nov 17, 2008 at 7:57 pm
Im feeling them…not Titanium status however.
I would definately cop for the $185, nothing more.
Nov 17, 2008 at 7:56 pm
oooh.who dnt have these.
Nov 17, 2008 at 6:58 pm
The red on the plastic and the ankle don’t match. Maybe it’s just the pic.
Nov 17, 2008 at 6:19 pm
mike bibby’s
Nov 17, 2008 at 6:02 pm
nice kicks !!!
Nov 17, 2008 at 6:00 pm
#9 where is the all stars
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:57 pm
Gotta have em
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:51 pm
i dont think theyre that bad…the remind me of the last shots
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:47 pm
They look good enough for 185 nothing more, but how dare anyone to compare these to the titaniums.
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:38 pm
These look ALOT like the XXI from the CDP…and people were running from those like the plague. I think i’ll get my video camera out and go make fun of all the lames camping out for these “exclusives”.
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:33 pm
I like the colors but I never really been a fan of the 23s
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:31 pm
WTF is DROPPING 4 SAME XX3’s on the same day???? Ill just get the WHITE RED AND BLACK xx3s on drop day…then get the motorsports for below retail after xmas…cause they still on ebay right now for retail and not selling!!! SMH!
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:30 pm
i guess… these are good though its just that the red wave at the tip of the shoe to the back does not match the red on the whole design
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:28 pm
wow!!! i really like these but i think the bred ones the dropped already and they bulls one coming out this weekend are better, but not taking nothing from these because they are dope.
Nov 17, 2008 at 5:24 pm
there cool, they were at sole mates event on saturday here
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:55 pm
yea, im glad these are weak because i already want two of the three coming on on the 28th. even with the unreal hype… easy pass.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:48 pm
PASS-O-MATIC…what is with the burnt orange midsole.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:41 pm
hahahhahhahaah these do look like these would be countdown pack XX3’s. itsmdallas thats a great comparison. lol
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:39 pm
i would agree that these aren’t the best colorway, but I would buy these just because the profit on the flip would be CRAZY.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:38 pm
LoL,
itsmedallas, if there was a CDP for the 23 this probably would fit right in
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Dare I say that these are the WORST XX3s?! I really couldn’t care one way or the other about how many are made, these are not attractive to me in the least.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:37 pm
I agree with hotboy16, I’d take the red ones releasing in the three pack. Imo all three of the colors releasing on black friday are hotter than these. You’re just a hypebeast if you think otherwise, just because they’re limited… smh. Don’t get me wrong, I love red/black J’s, but not feeling these.
Random question, is the toe-cap nubuck? Pics on NT make me wonder…
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:35 pm
these suck! they look like they would belong in a CDP!!! Horrible! Titaniums all day if you ask me
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:33 pm
uhmmmmmm no
these r pretty ugly
the best 23s go lik this
1.titaniums
2.motorsports
3.chicagos
4.old loves
5.blk stealths
6.UNCs
7.grey stealths
8.these gay sh_ts
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:31 pm
str8 crack
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:28 pm
Da reds don’t seem 2 match if u ask me. I’m a huge XX3 fan, but not a fan of these. I like da black/red/white colorway thats droppin’ on BLACK FRIDAY ova these. Would be nice 2 have for resale though.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:26 pm
I have a feeling these will do better than the Titaniums. I know the 11/12 pack is coming right after this but these will still sell-out I’m try to get a pair as a come up.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:19 pm
just cant grasp anything after 13…..not feelin these but the colorway is sick
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:18 pm
dem boys hot
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:18 pm
UMMMMMMMMMM anybody gonna campout …. Im pretty sure people are satisfisfied with the other similar colrways !
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:18 pm
wow. i’m in love missed on the titanium’s but i WILL GET THESE WHATEVER IT TAKES.
Nov 17, 2008 at 4:17 pm
These are okay.. I’ve Seen too many fakes in this colorway…
