In celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Air Jordan 3, Jordan Brand is paying tribute to the man behind the design, Tinker Hatfield.
The "Tinker" Air Jordan 3 NRG, which draws on inspiration from Tinker's original Air Jordan 3 sketches, was officially unveiled last month at the "Future Of Flight" event in Los Angeles. Sneakerheads will finally get a chance to purchase the commemorative 3s later this month.
The kicks feature the familiar "Fire Red" colorway that was seen on the original Air Jordan 3 but there are a number of modifications, most notably, the black Nike swoosh across the upper. Additionally, the "Tinker" 3s feature light grey mudguards, black upper midsoles, grey “NIKE” text stitched on the medial side, and Tinker's unmistakable signature on the inside of the tongue.
The special edition "Tinker" Air Jordan 3 NRG will be making their way to retailers on March 24th for the retail price of $200. Check out official images in the gallery above and stay tuned for more details.
