Air Jordan 3 Retro 'True Blue' (IF4396-104)

Air Jordan 3 Retro 'True Blue' - White / Varsity Red / True Blue / Cement Grey

Where the legend began. The Air Jordan 3 Retro 'True Blue' is one of the three original OG colorways from 1988 — the year Tinker Hatfield redesigned the Jordan line and changed sneaker history. A clean white tumbled leather upper, the iconic Cement Grey elephant print, a bold True Blue heel and lace detail, and a flash of Varsity Red Jumpman on the tongue — the exact combination Michael Jordan wore at the 1988 NBA Slam Dunk Contest, where he took off from the free throw line and redefined what was possible.

Key Features

• White tumbled leather upper — premium white pebble-grain tumbled leather on the full upper — the bright, clean base that has defined the AJ3 silhouette since 1988 and makes every accent color pop at maximum contrast
• Cement Grey elephant print mudguard & heel — the AJ3’s most iconic material detail: a bold, crackled elephant print pattern in cool Cement Grey wrapping the lower front mudguard and rear heel panels — the texture that made the AJ3 unmistakable and has never been replicated
• True Blue heel stabilizer — vivid True Blue external heel support wing — the defining accent of the True Blue colorway, anchoring the rear of the shoe in a rich, saturated blue that pops against the white and grey
• True Blue laces & lace loop — matching True Blue flat laces and lace loop, extending the blue palette to the upper face of the shoe and tying the tongue detail to the heel
• Varsity Red Jumpman tongue logo — the iconic red Jumpman silhouette on the white tongue — the first time the Jumpman appeared on a Jordan shoe, making the AJ3 the birthplace of one of the most recognized logos in sports
• Varsity Red eyelets — subtle red metal eyelet detail on the toe, a precise OG accent that completes the red–blue–grey–white four-tone palette
• Visible Air heel unit — the AJ3’s original innovation: the first Jordan shoe to feature a visible Air cushioning pod, exposed through a transparent window at the heel — the performance detail that changed the game in 1988
• Cement Grey midsole & outsole — cool Cement Grey foam midsole and rubber sole completing the build in the classic AJ3 sole treatment
