Air Jordan Retro III (3) White Cement Clear Sole Samples
Oct 07, 2009 | Comments 30

Before I get into this post, these samples are not new and are not samples of an upcoming release. Many of you may have seen these before, but I'm sure some of you haven't. With that being said, a while back, Jordan Brand created a sample of the White/Cement Air Jordan III featuring clear outsole. Created to try out a new icy sole rubber compound, the Clear Sole Air Jordan Retro III never made it to retail but a sample did leak out into the public.
If a Clear Sole Air Jordan III dropped, would you cop?

I don't think they look good on III's
How can you **** up a classic like that?! smh
I like it....its a good look IMO
NO thank you!!
I remember the pic of these without yellowing...they looked much better
looks kinda weird.......
if it had better icy quality than the cool grey spizikes than yes.
no thanks but maybe an elephant print sole u kno like those leopard spots on the nikeid hi dunk
nice idea, but a fail in execution...
i remember when he first put htese pics out on SC int he samples collection post. i get the idea but they dont look so great on IIIs but regardless CRAZY sample. Along with every other crazy sample he has.
It's kinda odd that they have the jumpman logo on the back while they have the nike logo on the sole.
Looks like a Canal Street NYC ExlusivE(Fakes)...Yellow(discolored)Clear Sole looks horrible. The Shoe is not released yet and already discoloring thanks a lot JB for the head up on letting us know how this shoe will turn out after a few wears,SMH
haha ive seen a few of these at the flee market
nope, doesn't have the clean feel that icy soles do on the V, maybe too much ice?
Market these as a limited release and watch the sheep follow...i would love to see "copped!" all over the place
They look like you can pick them up at you nearby hood convenience store. BOOTLEG!!!
I dont like that sole on the 3's. And I dont like that particular icy sole
they'd look better on blk/cements, DTRTs or the cool greys...now that would get my sheit going
why don't they just turn everything upside down and sell millions. Crazy things they do for $$$
If ya 1st seeing these then you cant pass judgement on these babies now they all worn and yellowed sole looking pissy nd all
But these 3's should've definitely been dropped a long time ago
I remember when these had the extremely clear icy soles a few years back when these pictures leaked onto the internet.
Interesting how even when kept deadstock they yellowed over the past 3 years this bad.
Would I cop?
No way. I spend money only on kicks I can wear. If you wore these out on the streets after just a few weeks your soles would be SO YELLOW and then they'd look nasty ugly.
Interesting concept, glad they only made this one pair and never retailed it.
Funny how so many of these comments obviously show they didn't read what you wrote, MaZe.

I'd pass for sure. That clear sole is hideous and yellowing is inevitable.
I'm always up for clearness..but it doesn't work here!!
You guys gotta remember, these are samples!! I am pretty darn sure that the icy soles are not going to come out that dirty.
no!! i think the cement 3 is one of the best sneaker ever made, but this just killed it. horrible. somethings just dont go together
LMAO looks like the bottom of the fake yeezy's. Do these glow in the dark?
HECK NO.
looks like they stepped in ****!!!
That is worth every penny. Nice pickup Maze!
cheap GUCCI
Gucci Men's Mid Shoes
