Quick: When you think of the best sneaker ever, what comes to mind? There are so many options to choose from. One of the very best may be the Jordan 3. A true trailblazer, it was the first shoe with visible Nike Air in the heel, the first with the new Jumpman logo, and the first designed by Tinker Hatfield, the mind behind many famous Nike shoes. It incorporated things that His Airness wanted in the shoe. Since its debut in 1988, it’s been a favorite of sneakerheads and basketball fans alike. At Foot Locker, we’re helping bring these shoes back for everyone to enjoy.
Throwback Greatness
The Jordan 3 is back and better than ever. It captures the retro mode to satisfy the old-school sneakerheads and is sure to be quickly beloved by new shoe fans as well.
The shoe has a full-grain leather upper, with EVA reinforcements for a remarkably supportive fit and feel. Also on the upper are a nifty internal lacing system that adds to the support and a one-piece internal shoe lining for a seamless feel that works to prevent overheating. Inside the shoe, there’s a polyurethane midsole that has a large, visible Air Sole heel unit for tremendous comfort and explosion. The rubber outsole has a herringbone pattern for superior grip on and off the court.
You’ll notice details that make this shoe shine. There's that iconic elephant print on both the heel and toe. There’s large Jumpman branding on the tongue and classic colorways like black, orange, and beige.
You’ll want to pair it with some Jordan Retro 3 clothing, including a fun T-shirt. A 100% cotton shirt, it’s made of a soft jersey fabric for supreme comfort. With a classic Jumpman logo plastered across the front, this is a bold way to show off your brand loyalty.
