Air Jordan 3 Retro Knicks

Description

The Air Jordan 3 in the ÃÆ’¢â‚¬Å“KnicksÃÆ’¢â‚¬Â is inspired by one of Michael JordanÃÆ’¢â‚¬â„¢s greatest on-court rivals the New York Knicks. Long a nemesis and perennial thorn in the side of JordanÃÆ’¢â‚¬â„¢s Chicago Bulls teams the Knicks provided a constant challenge to the Bulls reign of dominance in the late ÃÆ’¢â‚¬Ëœ80s and ÃÆ’¢â‚¬Ëœ90s with their swarming defense and take-no-prisoners approach. With too-many-to-name regular season and playoff classics one game in particular stands out as the source of inspiration behind this design JordanÃÆ’¢â‚¬â„¢s infamous ÃÆ’¢â‚¬Å“Virus GameÃÆ’¢â‚¬Â that took place during the 1987-1988 season. An inner tongue graphic reads 04.08.88 a reference to the game which saw Jordan fight through a nasty stomach virus en route to a 47-point performance and Bulls victory. The upper consists of a white tumbled leather base with customary elephant print around the toe mudguard and eyelets. A blue sock liner with hits around the eyelet tongue and Air Jordan branding on the heel round out the upper. Down below a black grey and white outsole with classic Air Jordan 3 branding completes the design. Release date September 2019.
