The striking highlights spread across this elegant Jordan 3 sneaker create a series of alluring tonal contrasts. It is mounted upon a strong rubber outsole with a variety of angular grip patterns throughout the Cement Grey sections around its edges and across its middle, while the Cardinal Red oval beneath the forefoot has a circular tread and star-shaped nodes have been lined up around the toe. Meanwhile, a white portion can be found below the heel and extending into the medial edge, Cardinal Red Jordan text embossed in its center with a similarly vibrant outline.

Moving upwards, the gray part of the toe gives way to a white band of rubber with a strip of stitching lining its top edge, and the rest of the midsole features two layers of polyurethane stacked one atop the other. The lower of these is pure white and has an oblong-shaped window set into its heel to show off the Air cushioning placed there to support the back of the foot. Radiant Cardinal Red then coats the top layer, its surface emitting a glossy sheen.

Above this, the upper is protected by a white tumbled leather mudguard with distinctive elephant print overlays around the toe and heel. The latter of these two pieces, which are both decorated in a blend of light and dark gray, loops downwards as it circumnavigates the heel, thus making way for the large, cone-shaped panel that resides there. This molded structure is white like most of the upper and has an eye-catching set of branding emerging from its center that incorporates a Cardinal Red Jumpman and the word “Air” in the same bright hue. A little higher up, a collection of embossed ridges fill out its curved upper portion, giving the wearer something to grasp when pulling the shoe on. Behind this and extending round the edge of the collar is a white underlayer with tiny ventilation holes dispersed across it for extra breathability.

The main leather overlay of the upper sits between this heel panel and the forefoot as it takes up the majority of the design. Delicate lines of stitching cut across its surface, giving the shoe a finely crafted feel, and its quarter edge zig zags back and forth to create an intriguing assortment of eyelets around the sides of the tongue. The lower ones are formed of Light Curry ringlets organized into a partial pyramid, while the ones just up from here are Cardinal Red pieces of TPU that rise out of a section of material coated in more elephant print patterns. Lastly, the uppermost ones consist of an hourglass-shaped piece of TPU in the same rich shade of red set into each side of the collar.

From here, the inner walls can just be seen tipping over the topline in a satin-soft material whose Cardinal Red coloring seems to shimmer in the light. This plush lining continues down inside the shoe, before making its way across the insole as well, only deviating for the white Jumpman printed there. The back of the tongue features the same captivating scarlet hue, but its topside is almost completely white. Identically colored laces criss-cross over the top of the foot, partially obscuring the perforation holes pressed into the lower piece of the tongue, before an embroidered Jumpman sewn into its peak in Light Curry thread concludes the design with a fabulous golden orange glow.
