Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” Available Online
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jul 14, 2009 Jordan Brand is putting heads on the hunt this summer for the True Blue Air Jordan 3. The shoes will release as an international exclusive meaning no retail drops Stateside. Thanks to the invention of the internet (no Al Gore) international boundaries will not block us all from the shoes. On the flip side, expect to have to pay higher prices with foreign currency exchanges and shipping costs.
The Air Jordan 3 True Blue is available online now ahead of the release at RMK starting at $229. Info from Daily Drop. |

Talk to nike store rep he said the release day in Van city canada is aug 8 don’t know if that’s the set in stone date but good luck!
Jul 26, 2009 at 12:28 pm
i dont see what the hype is,i dont really like blue,i dont like the way they colored the elephant print,with the light grey,even if it was a state side release,i still wouldnt cop,ill stck with the white/and fire reds they released a couple of years ago,OG coloways is all i like,i dont understant the hype around this shoe,maybe because JB always half way release them to the public,and its very limited,ive just never been impressed by this color scheme.

Hey I live in europe and can get the true blues and I would like to make a trade with the air yeezys black in size 8.5 or size close to that.(7.5, 8, 9)
If you think the trade is unfair, I will add more stuff to the trade.
I will be waiting for other offers too.

When is the release date internationally?
Jul 15, 2009 at 10:33 am
$229?!! Wow. I love the Jordan 3. I’m glad I copped these in 2000. I paid a damn near half the price and I barely wore them since then, I can even lick the bottom and not get dirt on my tongue!! LMAO
Jul 15, 2009 at 10:25 am
$229.00 was a bit much, but I’ll make that much back in 2-3 days overtime at work…! No prob.

WTF??? 2+ is WAY too much for a pair of 3s..Why would you do this JB?? If im spendin that– im on the hunt for the 2000 retros..this just really does not make cents to me…
^
My dude, it makes no sense to cop the 2000 (”OG”) ones. First off, they’ll run you 500 and better (could’ve bought 2 of the ‘09 versions!)… And since there’s freshness issues (and by that I mean, given the state of age\condition they’re in- even if they’re BNIB), the condition of the sneaker will deteriorate even after moderate wear (if you do decide to wear them). Lets face it folks, in these days of $220 black Air Max Griffeys, $375 eggplant Foamposites, and the beast that jacks up these prices known as Flight Club, $250 for the True Blue 3’s is tolerable. I mean, hell, people *stood in line* for the frickin’ $200+ Air Yeezys after all… 1

Jul 15, 2009 at 9:54 am
flightclub neva had em for 225…i concur.
Jul 15, 2009 at 9:46 am
It’s give and take for J’s globally. The US got the Nubucks and now we’re getting these. Overall, the US get more exclusive heat than us, so I end up ordering all the J’s that Canada doesn’t get ( I haven’t seen a single “sole” up here with the Doernbacher 1’s yet). August 8th is the official release date that they’re available in Toronto (so I’ ve been told). Shout out to Footlocker for giving the SPC discount on the pre order.
Jul 15, 2009 at 9:35 am
from Marquee sole, and that’s no lie…!
Jul 15, 2009 at 9:31 am
I copped a pair… thnx
Jul 15, 2009 at 9:17 am
sorry about the double post

I got mine 2 weeks ago on flightclub.com 4 $225 but now their 4 almost $300
^
Not possible… I was *in* Flight Club during my lunch break when they were bringing these in about 3\4 weeks ago… They were $375 when they first appeared in Flight Club (in the Nassau Street location, btw), and only since they’ve been coming out in stores internationally has the price now dropped to the $275-350 range. This man, is lying. Through his teeth, I might add. Heck, even Marquee Sole has ‘em for 250. That would’ve been more believable.

nice, but I cant do it. Retros are too old school with C-grade quality to be so high priced. Now them 60+ joints is raw. Nike has been good with making quality shoes lately and adding stuff like flywire and air max to LEBRONS just makes me want to forget about retro’s because they just are not as technically advanced.
Jul 15, 2009 at 9:01 am
Thats a hell of a mark up…. I will get em if they send me a international ho to give me some brain with the shoes
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:45 am
I understand the obsession.
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:44 am
compulsive?
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:39 am
Money is no concern when it comes to the True Blue’s. The VISA is coming out as we speak.
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:35 am
RMK been had these for over a month. Infact this is a restock they have. Anyways I think the 3s will be in plentiful stock so no need to rush and cop these for 239 which will be 269 after the 30 shipping. I was tempted to cop but I decided to wait it out.
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:28 am
remember the Spizikes last year?? They were originally international and people were dropping 200+ for them and then they came out stateside for 175. Keep that in mind. Don’t spend a ton for them from overseas because in a few months they will come out stateside and then you’ll be upset because you paid 250 and everyone else paid 175. Be wise people!
Jul 15, 2009 at 8:03 am
I copped a pair on eBay for less than $200 thanks to eBay bucks. I’m still looking for a 200- retro pair. As a Jordan III fan, I could not let these pass me by.
Also, I’m selling heat on eBay [Grapes, Barrons, Military IVs, Toro Bravo]. Search username, “nellynumberthree.”
Jul 15, 2009 at 7:59 am
Yo NiceKicks…show some love to the BIG FOOTERS!! Y’all always put up online stores that have limited size runs. I guess I should be use to it by now.
Jul 15, 2009 at 7:44 am
I got mine 2 weeks ago on flightclub.com 4 $225 but now their 4 almost $300
Jul 15, 2009 at 6:34 am
I will think about other offers too
Jul 15, 2009 at 5:57 am
theyre not even coming to the states and we get them in stores here in New Zealand! .its good to live here we get pretty much all the j’s the states get + most of the euro releases but they don’t sell out as fast.for example i just copped the black/metallic gold spizikes from nike platinum for 220NZ last week. which is the same as 140US.i see theyre sellin over there for $300us.goddamm
Jul 15, 2009 at 5:49 am
They are fire. But $229 is a bit much. I do believe they will drop in the states though. Just like the spizikes did. I don’t see why they wouldn’t. Not to do so seems crazy.
Jul 15, 2009 at 5:30 am
wow fo real im jus gonna get the 7 pack cuz i aint gonna mes wit goin to canada or back to europe when i can get the orlando7s n the look kinda like the 3s n gonna b a lot cheaper
Jul 15, 2009 at 4:39 am
165retail…….if even comes out in us…………….230now……….65 different…..not even including shipping……..so about 80 extra………..aint much
Jul 15, 2009 at 3:12 am
well now its time to wait for the space jamz and the infareds in jan… im not payn that much for 3’s im sorry i love em but jb kinda pissed me off wit that one
Jul 15, 2009 at 3:03 am
That’s funny jayznforcez your going to have to pay mad money for the space jams on the bay when they come out in the states
Jul 15, 2009 at 2:49 am
i officially hate jb, international, black friday 11s(i got work) reebok classics for now on???
Jul 15, 2009 at 1:42 am
I already seen a few on ebay from Taiwan for 225.
Jul 15, 2009 at 1:41 am
dey release bs fusions and 6 rings but they cnt release dese.
Jul 15, 2009 at 1:25 am
CusrereII I got em for 180CAN thats 160 for ppl in the US so its pretty easy to make profit especially since every1 wants em and cant get em where they live.
Jul 15, 2009 at 1:24 am
Pass! Price got me all types twisted + they are not that Dope :/
Jul 15, 2009 at 1:00 am
If this is space jam I might pay for that price, but hec nah am getting this with that price… way tooo pricey!
Jul 15, 2009 at 12:45 am
Jayznforces is a sucker. After fees (eBay and Paypal) and national tax good luck making a profit dummy. Whoever pays for than $250 should just get the earlier retro for the same price.
Jul 15, 2009 at 12:32 am
Im not a big fan of IIIs(Shocker right?) But im really feeling these, I’ll jus wait for them to drop stateside though
Jul 15, 2009 at 12:22 am
price is too high for me for now,
i’m definitely interested in the True Blue 3’s though!
Jul 15, 2009 at 12:11 am
I live in canada and got 3 pairs pre-ordered from my foot locker. Sucks for ppl in the states. Im gonna enjoy selling 2 of the pairs on ebay to you.
Jul 15, 2009 at 12:03 am
I honestly don’t understand why these were not released in the states. What was JB thinkin… these clearly would have sold out in every shoe store.
Jul 14, 2009 at 11:56 pm
a joe these raw as hell
Jul 14, 2009 at 11:55 pm
Yea me too, damn
Jul 14, 2009 at 11:52 pm
Steep markup, ill just wait.
