Jordan 3 Retro 2013 Fire Red

Considered one of the most recognized sneakers of all time, the Air Jordan 3 introduced many firsts for the brand. First and foremost, Michael Jordan's third signature sneaker introduced the now-revered Jumpman logo—a silhouette of His Airness leaping through the air mid-dunk—that replaced the popular Wings logo found on the Jordan 1 and 2. It was a brand he could call his own, and a major selling point in his contract renewal with Nike.

The Air Jordan 3 also enlisted a new designer, Tinker Hatfield, already esteemed in the sneaker world and now considered a legend. Hatfield had designed the Air Max 1 and Air Trainer 1, so the introduction of visible Air technology into the Jordan line was a no-brainer. Hatfield worked closely with MJ to incorporate the superstar's vision into the designs. In addition to the Jumpman logo and visible Air, the Jordan 3 also introduced an eye-catching elephant skin print, softer leather and a mid-cut height—moving away from the then-trendy high-top style. The overall design borrows design elements from its famous predecessors, the Air Jordan 1 and 2.

Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red 2013

Air Jordan 3 Retro Fire Red high-tops have the white, black, and red colorway in a classic design. The color combination of these bulls-inspired Jordans is presented with minimal seams and stitching. White panels make up most of the shoe with black mudguards and heel panels. A stripe of Fire Red also wraps around the heel below a red "Jumpman" logo that also appears on the tongues of these shoes. Neutral grey panels line either side of the laces with red and white lace holes. Grey also makes up most of the sole with a red section on the ball of the foot.
