The Air Jordan 3 « Wings » is a testament to Jordan Brand’s commitment to empowering future generations through education. This latest iteration of the iconic silhouette masterfully blends the timeless « White/Cement » colorway with poetic rose-themed elements, creating a sneaker that is not only eye-catching, but also carries a profound message of hope and resilience.
Official images reveal a pristine white leather upper complemented by the classic gray-on-black elephant print adorning the toebox and heel. The red Jumpman logo embroidered prominently on the tongue adds a striking contrast to the overall design. What sets this Air Jordan 3 apart is the intricate floral pattern on the mudguard, lace collar and ankle, featuring faded images of rose stems on a patterned canvas.
