Air Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red 2022

The Air Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red 2022 is an OG reissue of the iconic Air Jordan 3, first created in 1988 by designer Tinker Hatfield. The latest version of the sneaker pays homage to the original, bringing back the classic Fire Red colorway with a white leather upper and dark gray elephant print overlays on the forefoot and heel.

Tinker Hatfield took on the design of the Air Jordan 3 after previously working as an architect for Nike. The sneaker was first launched when Michael Jordan won his second NBA championship and received his first MVP award. The Air Jordan 3 was a breakthrough in the sneaker world as it was the first model to feature the iconic Jumpman logo. It was also the first model in the Jordan line to feature visible air cushioning in the heel area.

The distinct aesthetic of the Air Jordan 3 was a combination of Hatfield's innovative design and Jordan's attention to detail. Hatfield developed the elephant print to give the shoe a unique look, while Jordan had a clear idea of ​​how the sneaker should look. When Hatfield submitted the design to the basketball superstar, Jordan said, "I'm not going to wear it if it doesn't look like me." This collaboration resulted in an iconic design that is still relevant today.

Staying true to tradition, the Air Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red 2022 reissue features the classic design element of the elephant print. The sneaker is not only a homage to the past, but also an important part of the present. With its stylish and attractive design as well as the Zoom Air technology in the heel area, the Air Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red 2022 offers an incredible level of comfort.
