Great for collectors who appreciate the "'Lucky Shorts'" story. Also perfect for someone who wants a comfortable, stylish sneaker that isn't a "Jordan 1". If you like subtle details, you'll love the mint accents on these. Now, a real talk con: the "Lucky Shorts" colorway is "not" for everyone. That bright green panel can be hard to style if your wardrobe is mostly neutrals. It's a loud shoe, and some folks might find it a bit too much for daily wear. Also, if you're just looking for a basic, versatile AJ3, this probably isn't your first pick. Comparing these to other Jordans... the AJ3 'Lucky Shorts' sits in a nice spot. It's more comfortable for all-day wear than, say, a flat-footed AJ1. The cushioning is better than an AJ4 for me, personally. Within the AJ3 family, this is a top-tier colorway. It doesn't have the hype of some collaborations, but that's honestly a plus. You get a fantastic shoe without the insane resale price. Alright, so the Nike Air Jordan 3 'Lucky Shorts' just arrived. First thing I noticed? The quality is solid. The leather feels premium, and that 'Lucky Shorts' colorway is way more vibrant in person. You get that classic AJ3 elephant print, but the green and white combo? It's a statement for sure. At around $210 USD, it's a standard Jordan price point.
