Originally released in 1988, the Nike Air Jordan 3 is an iconic pair of sneakers, as they’re the ones Michael Jordan wore during his first MVP season as a shooting guard with the Chicago Bulls. And now, the sports apparel company has re-released them for a new generation of fans.
Available for $200 on the Nike website, the Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro “cement grey” sneakers are lightweight and made for casual use, or for playing basketball on a hardwood or blacktop court, thanks to the shoes’ pronounced lines and classic silhouette. The sneakers drop on Saturday, Aug. 31, at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT.
The sneaker uppers are made from a blend of high-quality leathers for durability and shape, and even have strips of textured elephant print leather running around their toe caps, the heels and on their lace loops for style and a bit of flair.
In addition, the sneakers also feature a fire red Jumpman logo on each tongue and a black logo on each heel with the “Air” moniker underneath. The design and silhouette are classic, while the style of the sneakers are very late ’80s basketball — one of MJ’s most iconic shoes and eras. These Nike sneakers come in a summit white, cement grey, black and fire red colorway.
If you want more from Nike, the sports and fashion apparel company also dropped new Air Jordan 11 Retro Low “Diffused Blue,” as well as Air Jordan 6 Retro “Reverse Oreo” sneakers.
Priced at $200, the Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro “Cement Grey” sneakers come in men’s and women’s sizes and are available at nike.com starting on Saturday, Aug. 31, at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT. The shoes also come in Big Kids’, Little Kids’ and Baby/Toddlers’ sizes starting at $75.
