Jordan 3 Retro Racer Blue

Jordan 3 Retro "Racer Blue" (2021) — CT8532-145

The Air Jordan 3 Retro "Racer Blue" is a July 2021 release of Michael Jordan's third signature shoe, built on the iconic silhouette first designed by Tinker Hatfield in 1988. The AJ3 was a landmark model — the first Air Jordan to feature the Jumpman logo and the first to expose a visible Air unit in the heel, two details that have defined the line ever since.

This colorway dresses the classic silhouette in a White/Black-Cement Grey-Racer Blue palette. The base is white tumbled leather, with elephant print overlays on the toe and heel rendered in a notably darker grey than found on most Jordan 3 retros. The elephant print itself is 3M reflective, adding a subtle hit of dimension in low light. Racer Blue appears on the eyelets, dotted collar leather, Jumpman branding on the tongue and heel, and the painted mid-panel — keeping the pop focused without overwhelming the clean base.

A grey cement outsole, grey sockliners, and a white midsole housing the signature visible Air bubble complete the build. The shoe released with a matching Racer Blue shoebox, making it a cohesive collector package.
