If you only buy one Jordan 3 ever, you might still lean towards the Black Cement or White Cement for their undisputed iconic status. This is a niche within a classic. So, who are these for? I'd recommend the Nike Air Jordan 3 'Lucky Shorts' to any sneakerhead looking for a durable, everyday Jordan. It's perfect if you love the AJ3 silhouette and want a colorway that goes with everything. Also, great for someone building their first serious Jordan collection—it's a foundational piece. You really can't go wrong here. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 3 'Lucky Shorts' sits in a great spot. It's more structured and has better ankle support than a Jordan 1. Versus a Jordan 4 or 5, it's often lighter and a bit more low-profile. For $210 USD, you're getting that iconic Tinker Hatfield design with a timeless color story that stands out in the Jordan series. On feet, the 'Lucky Shorts' design really pops. The green suede has a great texture, and the elephant print frames it perfectly. In natural light? Even better. They're versatile enough for jeans or shorts, but that green definitely makes them the centerpiece of any fit. A super fun summer shoe, honestly.
