It's for the collector who appreciates the story behind a "PE-inspired" release. It's also great for someone wanting a white-based sneaker with a little hidden personality. Alright, so the Nike Air Jordan 3 "Lucky Shorts" just arrived. First impression? The quality is solid. The elephant print is clean, and the "Lucky Shorts" green hits on the heel and tongue are vibrant in hand. For a Jordan 3, priced around $210, the materials feel premium right out of the box. It's a strong start for this unique colorway. Who should maybe pass? If you're looking for your first "Jordan 3" and want the most classic, versatile option, I'd point you to a Black Cement or White Cement first. Also, if you prioritize the absolute latest in footbed technology and cushioning, this retro might feel a bit dated. Who might want to skip it? If you're on a tight budget, there are more affordable sneakers. Also, if you need a shoe for actual basketball or all-day comfort on your feet, a modern performance model is a better choice. This is primarily for style and collection.
