It's less flat than the AJ1 but doesn't have the bulk of the AJ4. The toe box shape is unique to this model. For me, the Air Jordan Retro 3 offers a perfect blend of that old-school vibe with a slightly more modern (for its time) construction. So, who are these for? If you're a fan of classic sneaker history, this is a must. It's also perfect for someone wanting a versatile, statement shoe that isn't overly loud. At $210, it's an investment in a piece of iconic design that you'll wear for years. On feet, the design "really" pops. The 'White Cement' colorway is just timeless. That elephant print and the Jumpman on the tongue look sharp in person and on camera. This Air Jordan Retro 3 is a true head-turner. It works with so many fits. The visual appeal is a major win for this release. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Jordan 3 sits differently than a 1 or a 4. It's less bulky than a 4 and has more structure than a 1. The toe box shape is unique to the 3. For me, the Air Jordan Retro 3 offers a perfect blend of style and substance. It's not as minimalist as a 1, but it has more personality. A great middle ground.
