Often considered the silhouette that saved Jordan’s deal with Nike, the Air Jordan 3 continues to appear in classically colorblocked variants, recently emerging in a clean white, grey, and purple, Jordan Brand is dubbing “Dark Iris.”
Staying true to its OG build, the sneaker comes dressed in an all-over white tumbled leather upper with accenting hits of elephant print on the mudguard and heel. Shades of dark iris appear on the eyestays, branding details, and collar, providing a nice pop of color to the upper while maintaining its neutral look. Rounding out the design is the white AJ 3 midsole with a hit of dark iris just above the exposed Air unit on the heel paired with a grey rubber outsole.
The Air Jordan 3 Retro Dark Iris is slated to release on August 24th, 2022. Coming in full-family sizing, the retail price for men’s pairs is set at $200. Follow along as we break down everything you need to know about the release and everywhere that you can buy the Air Jordan 3 Dark Iris for retail.
