A new Nike SB V-Rod just got the black-on-black Elephant print treatment, but that model is destined to be a mere footnote when historians document the footwear year that was 2011. But there’s no shame in playing second fiddle to one of the all-time greats, and the Michael to those Vulc Rods’ Scottie is, of course, the upcoming Air Jordan III Retro in a dope new ‘Black Flip’ motif. These apply a wholly dark take on the 2007 ‘Flip’ IIIs that we still see celebrities rocking to this day; will the black edition have a similarly long shelf life? Their fate has yet to be determined aside from the fact you can pretty well count on them selling out soon after arriving at retail, so click through to see more angles and stick with Sneaker News for the US release date. via Taobao

I really like these. I was never a fan of the 3s until I actually tried on a pair. They are comfortable and very smooth. These Black Flips may actually make it to my shoe closet.

September 22nd, 2011 at 10:26 am
Not worried about retail just trying to figure out when? Black Friday we get the Black Cements, Then 3wks later Last Shots, then the following week the Concords, then a couple of weeks later in January we get the 10s. Something tells me they will sneak these in on a weekend between black friday and 12/17 when the last shots drop
September 22nd, 2011 at 11:26 am
Doesn'T Matter ! A Must cop
September 22nd, 2011 at 1:01 pm
Come on don't be ridiculous! That is just a harmless figure of speech, it was not meant to be taken literally! It's obvious that I do not HAVE to buy..but since you are obviously a little slow I will spell OT out to you..there are some other shoes I would rather buy…is that better for you? Some of you little knuckleheads kill me (dont take that literally as you can see (maybe) that I'm still alive) sitting back waiting for someone say something..(uh I mean write something) so that you can insult them for their opinion. Get a life PRESTONEFUEGO! and don't worry about what the f@#k I say…uh write..prestoneFuego..Hahaha..Cornball ass name hahaha
September 22nd, 2011 at 2:01 pm
Hahaha damn dude chill! Got a little heated for a second huh?
September 22nd, 2011 at 4:34 pm
youre gonna end up spending the same amount it doesnt matter what order it goes in…. 160+ 160+ 180 = 500. just like 160+180+160 = 500
September 22nd, 2011 at 6:44 pm
dope imma cop 4sure
September 22nd, 2011 at 7:27 pm
Yep
September 22nd, 2011 at 7:37 pm
It bothers me when some anonymous dude negatively comments on me for no GOOD reason. You say you are a college kid so then that means you knew exactly what I meant. So this means you were busting my balls for nothing. I doubt very seriously duke that you would be busting my balls if I was standing right in front of you. You would keep it moving
September 22nd, 2011 at 8:48 pm
Haha man I wasn't takin' shots or anything. I just thought it was funny how you stated it like that. Like Nike has us all under a trance, because I know how you feel. No hard feelings!
September 22nd, 2011 at 10:51 pm
lmao!! haha treated his ass!
September 22nd, 2011 at 11:26 pm
Man, who busts balls for a real reason? That's all it is. Bustin' balls. Kidding around. And yeah if you were right in front of me, assuming we were having a conversation about this, I would be bustin' your balls because I did know exactly what you were saying and was making a joke about it taking what you said completely literally. Like I said 1 comment up, I know how you feel i.e. I'm agreeing with you dude! Sorry you took it so negatively and offensively.
September 23rd, 2011 at 10:25 pm
Ok my dude its cool..as a matter of fact I feel a lil bad for taking it so hard. You are coming off now as a cool dude. I appreciate the apology and I accept. Be cool lil bro..
