The debut of the Air Jordan 3 back in 1998 marked the beginning of the Tinker Hatfield era. Since then, the model has re-released in original and new colorways to continue its legacy.

One of the beloved releases was the “Katrina” Air Jordan 3 that was first produced in very limited quantities to raise money for Hurricane Katrina relief efforts in 2005. The shoe would later see a wider release in 2018, making a lot of Air Jordan collectors happy.

For 2021, Jordan Brand debuted the Air Jordan 3 “Racer Blue” colorway. It features a White tumbled leather upper with 3M reflective elephant print overlays on the forefoot and heel counter. Highlighting the shoe are Racer Blue contrasting accents throughout completed with a White midsole and Grey rubber outsole.
