Coming Soon: Air Jordan 3 Retro “Rare Air”

This season, Jordan Brand takes a bold leap into its own archives to deliver a release that redefines legacy through the lens of imperfection. Introducing the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Rare Air,” a standout rendition of the iconic silhouette that celebrates the beautiful process of becoming – flaws, missteps, and all.

Inspired by early Jordan samples where imperfections turned into iconic details, this release takes those so-called "mistakes" and makes them the centerpiece. Each design element on the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Rare Air” tells a story of innovation born from error, style refined through experimentation, and confidence that’s never afraid to take risks.

Breaking from tradition, this version of the Air Jordan 3 ditches the classic elephant print for rich grey suede overlays that add texture and luxury to the upper. One of the most eye-catching features is the mirrored Nike Air heel branding, a never-before-seen twist that adds depth and dimension to the back of the shoe. The refreshed color palette breathes new energy into the timeless '88 silhouette, combining heritage with forward-thinking design in a way only Jordan Brand can.

Will you be looking to cop? The Air Jordan 3 Retro “Rare Air” will be available on Friday, May 30th, in-store and online at DTLR.com in full-family sizing.
