Air Jordan 3 Black Friday

Air Jordan 3 Black Friday Sale

Black Friday deals on Air Jordan 3 sneakers

Every pair of Air Jordan 3 in this year’s Black Friday sale is right here. For many people it’s the best-looking Jordan ever made, and there are plenty of reasons why: it was the first to show off a visible Air unit in the heel, the first with the Jumpman logo on the tongue and the one that debuted the famous elephant print. It’s a mid-top with soft leather and a silhouette that looks just as good with wide-leg trousers as with straight jeans. To see the brand’s other models on sale, the whole Jordan Black Friday edit is in one place.

Air Jordan 3 colourways on Black Friday: from Cement to True Blue

The Jordan 3 launched in 1988 in four colourways that are now legendary: White Cement, Black Cement, Fire Red and True Blue. The two Cements play the grey elephant print off a white or black base; Fire Red pairs white with a bold red, and True Blue swaps the red for an instantly recognisable blue. Dozens of new versions have followed, but every time one of the originals returns, it sells out. This Black Friday, keep an eye on these classic colourways – they age the best and disappear the fastest.

Tinker Hatfield and the elephant print: the story of the Jordan 3

In 1988 Michael Jordan was thinking about leaving Nike, and the Jordan 3 was the shoe that convinced him to stay. It was designed by Tinker Hatfield, who until then had worked on running shoes, and who listened to Jordan like no one had before: he wanted a lower shoe, comfortable from day one and with a different look. The result was the mid-top collar, soft leather, visible Air and the print that mimics elephant skin. It was the start of a partnership that led to the Air Jordan 4 and many more.

How does the Air Jordan 3 fit?

The Air Jordan 3 usually fits true to your regular Nike size, so most people get it right without sizing up or down. It’s a little more padded than the Air Jordan 1 and comfortable from the first wear, with almost no break-in period. If you have wide feet or tend to wear thick socks, consider going up half a size for a roomier fit. Either way, each product page has a size guide to double-check, and if your size has sold out, turn on the restock alert.
