This week in Europe, Jordan Brand dropped a series of Air Jordan 3 Retro releases as the “Week of III’s“. Today, the final release from the series dropped, the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Katrina”.
This iconic Air Jordan III celebrates the 30th anniversary of MJ’s second Slam Dunk Contest win and first All-Star MVP award. In 1988, his performance changed history—and marked the beginning of an unforgettable legacy. Originally made as a Player Edition, this colourway went on to be auctioned in Nike’s community-relief auction for Hurricane Katrina, and was later featured in the Basketball Hall of Fame when MJ was inducted.
The sneaker made its grand debut last week, exclusive to New Orleans based Politics.
While you can currently find the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Katrina” on Nike.com in Europe, independent sneaker shops on the continent will release the kicks on Saturday, the 5th of May. Shops like Berlin based Overkill and Switzerland based Titolo will carry the release.
For those in the states, the kicks will release on the 12th of May. Find the kicks on eBay.
