It's a 1988 design, updated with modern materials. Also, if your style is very neutral, the green details might not integrate easily. It's a specific look for a specific fan. Alright, so the Nike Air Jordan 3 "Lucky Shorts" just landed. First thing I noticed? That "Lucky Shorts" colorway is "crazy" in hand. The mix of that vibrant green, the black, and the hits of red... it's bold, man. The elephant print feels premium, and the overall shape is classic AJ3. This is a statement piece for sure, no doubt about it. The major pro for me is the "execution". Nike got the materials right on this one. The leather is soft, the paint is clean, and the overall craftsmanship feels worth the price point. That green accent is the star—it makes the whole shoe. If you're a fan of the AJ3 model, this 'Lucky Shorts' version offers something fresh but familiar. Who should maybe pass? If you're buying your "first ever" pair of Jordans, I might steer you to a more iconic colorway like 'Black Cement' or 'Fire Red'. The 'Lucky Shorts' is a bit more of a niche preference within the lineup. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $210 USD is a commitment for a primarily style-driven shoe.
