The Air Jordan 3 stands tall as an iconic creation by Jordan Brand, nestled within Michael Jordan's esteemed line of footwear. With a sleek and straightforward design, it's a testament to timeless style. Debuting in 1988, its mid-top shape provides commendable support, while the addition of a visible air cushion in the sole elevates its comfort for various activities. Notably, the Air Jordan 3 boasts a distinctive feature: an eye-catching elephant print adorning its upper, lending a touch of texture and uniqueness to the shoe.
In a notable collaboration, celebrated musician J Balvin teamed up with Jordan Brand to craft the J Balvin x Air Jordan 1 sneaker, a fusion of style and personality. Bursting with lively colors, this sneaker design embodies J Balvin's vibrant essence. From vivid blues to energetic greens and playful pinks, the sole mirrors the dynamic color palette of the shoe. Adding a personal flair, J Balvin's signature smiley face logo graces the heel, infusing the sneaker with his distinctive charm. Now he's dropping his signature Air Jordan 3, in a new "Rio" colorway.

The sneakers feature a gradient rubber sole transitioning to a deep midsole. Crafted from sleek black leather, the upper boasts a subtle gray elephant print lining at the base. Inspired by Rio, additional fading accents enhance the shoe's aesthetic. Notably, the left shoe bears the iconic Nike Air emblem, while J Balvin's signature smiling face graces the right. Completing the design is a pale yellow Jumpman logo adorning the tongue.
