The AJ3: From the Court to Your Feet
The Air Jordan 3s were the shoes that forever linked designer Tinker Hatfield to the legacy of the brand, receiving triumphant applause when they dropped in 1987 (sporting the White Cement style). Like the AJ3’s predecessors, the trainers were catapulted to stardom by the sporting exploits of His Airness, who wore them while playing for the Chicago Bulls in the All-Star Weekend.
You may be wondering what makes the AJ3s so special. Why did they become the icons they are today? The answer is simple: Hatfield listened to the man whose name they were representing, to what he wanted in a basketball shoe. With this knowledge, the attentive designer embraced a mid-cut silhouette with tumbled leather for the upper and Air cushioning beneath the foot. On top of this, he incorporated the now-synonymous Jumpman logo, which was styled after a 1984 image of His Airness gaining altitude to dunk a basketball.
It should come as no surprise to anyone that the AJ3 has been given a retro makeover countless times since its original debut, with the White Cement and Black Cement (the two original colourways) never failing to draw a crowd. In the JD Sports AU range, you’ll find many of the silhouette’s most popular models, so if you’re a fan of the Jumpman, this is your opportunity to get your hands on the latest releases and re-releases.
