If you're only into bold, high-contrast Jordans, the muted tones of the 'Lucky Shorts' could feel a bit too subtle. Also, at $210, it's a standard retro price, but still an investment. It's a niche appeal within the broader Jordan series. Putting these "Air Jordan 3s" on... the fit is true to size for me. The leather is decent, not super plush, but it's comfortable. The ankle collar gives that classic, supportive feel. They're not the lightest shoe in the "Jordan" lineup, but you definitely feel the cushioning from that visible Air unit in the heel. It's a good, supportive base. So, is the Nike Air Jordan 3 Lucky Shorts worth it? For me, yes. It's a well-executed colorway on a legendary silhouette. The comfort is there, the looks are there. It's not a perfect, every-single-person shoe, but it's a really strong release in the Jordan series this year. On foot, the design really pops. The 'Lucky Shorts' theme with that bold green hits differently in natural light versus the box. The elephant print adds that iconic texture. Compared to a more neutral AJ3, these are definitely for someone who wants to stand out. They're a head-turner, no doubt about it.
