The Air Jordan 3 Makes Its Long-Awaited Return On October 15th


So the Air Jordan 3 ?Cyber Monday? won’t release on the actual Cyber Monday festivities following Black Friday madness, but there is a silver lining: you won’t have to wait as long to grab your pair of the premium black leather upper and high-contrast white midsole as this colorway will be releasing on October 15th for $190 USD.

It’s crazy to think that Jordan Brand put the Air Jordan 3 in the vaults for over two years, but that’s exactly what happened. A lot has changed for the Jumpman in that timeframe as well, with their premium Remastered program upping the quality and price on retro releases while an onslaught of $400 retros featuring luxurious Pinnacle constructions has proven to be a hit as well. The Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday marks the end of the AJ3 hiatus with a simple yet effective colorway sure to be a fan favorite.

The Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday skips over the expected elephant print from this 1988 Tinker Hatfield gem, and instead opts for a smooth tumbled leather throughout. There’s no ‘Nike Air’ branding like the upcoming Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” retro, but given this pair’s new status that shouldn’t be too much of a problem. The Jumpman branding matches in a matte black on the heel construction while a white midsole/outsole combination keeps things clean and understated. What do you think of this upcoming Air Jordan 3 release? Check out more photos below and stay tuned for more updates right here on Sneaker News.
