I cannot believe Nike would not pay for a translation service to get this right. It's actually pretty downright poor business practice to mess something up like this..
J Balvin KILLED these. The colorway was safe yet kinda loud. I think the cream in the front and the multicolor in the back is a perfect balance. The yellow trimming definitely adds to the shoe. The quality of the leather is also a plus. They’re definitely gonna be in my top 5. Excited to UN-DS them on my bday
I was waiting for this review and your take. I own a pair, and for me, this is the shoe of the year. The color tones are fitting and not overdone. The leather feels great and will likely look better the more I wear them. Overall, these are solid.
so on the semi translucent outsole, i think the thought behind it could be that just like on a sunst the color is changing over time, when the get yellow over the years caused by aging it will suit the whole theme of the shoe
I don't have these because I was to greedy to spend 330 thinking the prices would go down. Definitely the best AJ3 of the year. Top 3 sneaker of 2023.💖
I love em, they are probably one of my best Ws of the year. The quality is insane and I would rate them among my top 5 releases this year amongst the reimagined aj3 wc, Aj4 sb, Aj1 Union bbs, sb dunk low Jarritos
appreciate the size input, always grateful, i am a size 10 slightly wide, i can't wait to see the cactus plant flea air 2 , with your sizing equals mine , keep up the amazing reviews,
I was stoked to be able to grab a pair and I'm in love with them! They're almost so nice though that I don't want to wear them. 😢 For sure his best collab yet!
The price tag is high but I appreciate your feedback on the materials and the build. The back of the shoe is sweet. I think I prefer the Black one. Complex showed on the episode with DJ Khaled. Great review.
Thank you for your review Sean! Was hoping you were going to publish this. Quick question, what do you rate more design and quality-wise, these or the A Ma Maniere J3s?
So bummed about trying to get these. Went to Livestock a couple hours before release, 20th or so in line, and the store only got 5 or 6 pairs I believe. Glad I’m too old to even bother camping out anymore.
I'd have loved to have grabbed a pair but there's no way I can justify the re-sale prices. I do also worry about that outsole, I think it'll be pee yellow in next to no time and I don't know how that'll look with these.
Great looking shoe but I couldn’t justify the retail price. There are better releases that I had to get. I’m loving the direction of where threes are going. Shape is phenomenal.
The “tumbled” leather is softer and looks better after a few wears then the panda plastic leather but Nike uses the cheapest suede with glue, plastic and paint over it and calls it tumbled. It falls apart if touched which I think is why they painted the edges. If they didn’t you could see the suede flaking. Nubuck is gna be the best real leather we get from them
These are absolute beauties. The Spanish to English on the box is pretty much right but they didn't put in " A Sunset in Medellin" in the English part which is dumb because that's the name of the shoe colorway.
The English translation was spot on by the way 👌 the Translation only missing part was “Medellin” (A “Medellin” sunset) but everything else’s was spot on. Don’t know where you got the part about missing in translation from 🤷🏽♂️
Coming from a Spanish speaking person the translation on the box it’s accurate . The only thing it’s missing to the English translation is the word “medellin”. Love the shoe not his music lol
I love your videos, but you might have to remake this one because your pronunciation of Medellin is crazy! 😂 Where did you get a "J" or "G" in the word?

A sunset in Medellin always reminds me that a new day is coming full of opportunities.

Y’know I can imagine that the outsole might actually look even better once it has aged and yellowed. It would still match the colorway pretty well.
Agreed!

I have a pair too, and agree. I also have the SB4, and for me, the Balvins are sneaker of the year!

makes sense
Such a clean sneaker in person! So glad to have it in my collection. Beautiful pair.
Love the video my guy. Just got my pair! Beautiful Shoe!!!
Can't stop watching your videos man. You have the Best sneaker review style in youtube
I appreciate that!
Simply one of the best AJ3, did the leg work for these, but they just slipped away from my grasp. Glad you got a W on these, enjoy!

400$ used

The colorway is just craaaazy
Really nice release. Leather was awesome and should be standard on all retros.
Best Jordan 3 this year. Beside the Reimagined White Cement. 🙌🏼
Agreed!!
wooooo been waiting for this
Dont like to pay resell for shoes. But had to pull the trigger on this one!!!!
appreciate the size input, always grateful, i am a size 10 slightly wide, i can't wait to see the cactus plant flea air 2 , with your sizing equals mine , keep up the amazing reviews,
Coming soon!
These don’t come with extra laces?
Sean - when are you going to showcase your wardrobe. I need to know where you got that shirt. Do a separate RUclips for it? Sean Fit?
Might consider it when i get more space to have a proper filming area 😅
Amazing review as always fam
I was stoked to be able to grab a pair and I'm in love with them! They're almost so nice though that I don't want to wear them. 😢 For sure his best collab yet!
Please answer, I am going to buy J3 AmM 2021 the OG one, my true to size is 10 on wider feet, I've seen ur video u said u went 9.5, right? Please
@@chhaiy2225 for the first amm3 yeah
The price tag is high but I appreciate your feedback on the materials and the build. The back of the shoe is sweet. I think I prefer the Black one. Complex showed on the episode with DJ Khaled. Great review.
Such a clean shoe. I’m the same way with icy or translucent outsoles, can’t do it 😅
Won them on SVD (a Spanish shop). Very good quality but I prefer my fire red 😊. Nice video as usual 👌🏽
Beautiful pair...
Thank you for your review Sean! Was hoping you were going to publish this. Quick question, what do you rate more design and quality-wise, these or the A Ma Maniere J3s?
AMM gets the edge for me but it’s not far behind!
@@SeanGonice one bro I have to agree. Love these but can’t justify buying them while owning the AMMs too
So bummed about trying to get these. Went to Livestock a couple hours before release, 20th or so in line, and the store only got 5 or 6 pairs I believe. Glad I’m too old to even bother camping out anymore.
That’s the sneaker game now, either you got bots or you got goin cop
amazing
Nice!!!! I put up a vlog video of the release of these in Medellin - it was an epic time!
I'd have loved to have grabbed a pair but there's no way I can justify the re-sale prices.
I do also worry about that outsole, I think it'll be pee yellow in next to no time and I don't know how that'll look with these.
I love your unbiased opinion. 😊
Great looking shoe but I couldn’t justify the retail price. There are better releases that I had to get. I’m loving the direction of where threes are going. Shape is phenomenal.
Whats the pants??
The only 3s I would rock

White Cement 3s are enough for me

good to know

Shoes are gorgeous but shame they’re so expensive
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dope shoe. BTW translation is actually correct. Dont know who said otherwise. It's all good 👌.
These were extremely limited...20k pairs worldwide isn't alot....had to pay resale but I got for a decent price before they sky rocketed
🔥🔥
Have to break a few eggs to make a good omelette
Great shoe and took L on the drop...waiting for price to drop before I cop resale and or trade.
snkers of the year
I took an L on the J balvin website and the SNKRS app...
The outsole ruins these shoes, same with Spiderman origins
Reslly great shoes, but still prefer my AMM 3s so an easy pass for me
yeah AMM on a different level, dont need to buy these if u have AMM 3
These looks like a girls grade school release. Easy pass for me.
I love your videos, but you might have to remake this one because your pronunciation of Medellin is crazy! 😂 Where did you get a "J" or "G" in the word?
Colombians pronounce it that way, so I wanted to respect J Balvin’s proper way of speaking it
