As Zion Williamson and the Pelicans wrap up their season, the excitement continues off the court with the latest addition to Zion's sneaker lineup. Jordan Brand is set to release a new colorway of the Jordan Zion 3, called Rising, this May. This release follows the vibrant Orchid colorway and introduces a more subtle yet striking gradient design.
The Rising colorway of the Jordan Zion 3 features an innovative gradient effect, transitioning from faint pink at the toe to cream in the midsection and culminating in baby blue at the heel. The upper's standout feature is the mud splash overlay, a design element directly scanned from a mud splash created by Zion, rendered here in a translucent finish that enhances the gradient beneath. Tonal cream laces match the shades found on the neoprene tongue, while the sockliner gets a baby blue finish. Branding includes Zion Williamson's logo on the heel and a classic Jumpman on the tongue, adding iconic touches to this personalized model. The sneaker is built for performance with a drop-in React midsole for responsive cushioning, while the gradient continues onto the rubber outsole, maintaining the thematic flow of the design.
The Jordan Zion 3 Rising will release on May 15, 2024, via Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers both online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the sneaker will retail for $140.
