The Jordan Brand Rare Air series continues with the release of these Air Jordan 3s. Inspired by samples and prototypes that don’t make the cut, these are share similarities to the “Black Cement” Air Jordan 3 but incorporate purposely placed “imperfections” like a flipped back tab, and suede instead of elephant print. Check out my review and to hear my thoughts on this unique spin on a classic!

First released in 2007, the “Black Cat” Air Jordan 3 has finally returned.
