“The Medicine Balls”

For a good 90% and then some percentage of the population, the title of this post means nothing. But for a kid from the 90’s, these are the Trainer III’s that were made famous by Spike as the character Mookie & Do The Right Thing (along with those Jordans too of course).
Along with the other Bo’s pictured yesterday, Nike saw fit to bring these back as well. Having not been seen since the limited 2000 retro, using the word “coveted” is an understatement, even if the quality of these probably is no where near the previous release. Lord knows I wore my pair until they could stand no more.
Cop @ PYS now…or wait til they go on sale later, which will inevitably happen.

I have developed a very serious love affair with Air Trainer III’s.
The End.
The moment I saw the pic and the title of the post I said, “Must be the shoes”. Well done Nike.
i’ll take my dunks in the same colorway over these. sorry….i just can’t fuck with the trainers like that.
Sorry but nostalgia reasons propel these over Dunks easy.
Then again, I’ve never hid my distaste for Dunks. I think I’d crossover & wear Ree’s before Dunks lol.
I love those shoes. I bought a pair 3 months ago.
Trainer IIIs along with my Jordans are my favs. I bought almost every single colorway when they released them a few months ago. Excited to cop these too! Nice post.
come on gotty…that was just uncalled for. hahaha.
I saw a kid with these on at lunch today! Brought back memories of ‘89 when I beat the odds and copped these in a size 15.
Dude I have those in a garbage bag with all my old Jordans and other Legendary Nike’s that someone will have to throw out at my funeral. LOL
These are beautiful - normally I don’t stray from Air Max but I’d make an exception for these.
copped..as soon as they go on on sale lol
I aint like the dunks in this colorway….probably cuz I wasn’t messin wit high n mids @ the time
Now we just need to get you the Jackie Flannel and you’ll be straight!
Copped x 2. One pair for retail b/c I can’t wait. The other when they hit the racks. And at that point, a third pair isn’t out of the question.
sucks they fucked up the perf, and the obvious lacking in quality
