It respects the model's DNA while offering something new. You get that legendary Jordan 3 comfort and silhouette in a fresh package. Just be ready to take care of that suede. If you're cool with that, I think it's a really solid cop, especially if you can grab them near retail. So, who are these for? If you love the "AJ3" model and want something different in your rotation, the "'Lucky Shorts'" is perfect. It's for the collector who appreciates a fun story behind a shoe. The quality is there for the "Jordan series" enthusiast. On feet now, and the comfort is classic Air Jordan 3. The Air unit in the heel gives you that nice, familiar cushioning. The fit is true to size for me—good lockdown around the midfoot. They're not the lightest sneakers out there, but you feel the quality. For around $210 USD, you're getting that iconic Jordan series construction and feel. Now, a potential con? That beautiful green suede/nubuck on the heel and eye stays. You "know" it's gonna be a magnet for dirt and water stains. If you're rough on your kicks or live in a rainy area, be prepared for extra care. Also, if you prefer ultra-minimalist sneakers, the "AJ3"'s detailing might feel a bit "busy" to you.
