Air Jordan III True Blue

The Air Jordan III is one of the most iconic of all of the storied Jordan signature line. Introduced for the first time way back in 1987, Michael won the dunk contest in these while Tinker Hatfield introduced the world to elephant print. The now ubiquitous pattern was just an inkling in Hatfield’s head when he transposed it to the sneaker, and the rest as you may well know is history. The first Jordan with a visible air unit is also one of the most simple and durable Jordan’s ever created. While aesthetes will argue their favorite colorups until the cows come home, there is no denying the Air Jordan III True Blue. With a red Jumpman at the tongue, blue accents at the mid-sole and a white base these shoes scream Americana, and rightly so. If you’ve missed out on these coveted kicks in the past, fret not, Independence Day of this year marks their latest incarnation. There is no word as of yet on the price-point or slight variations from the 2009 model, but one thing that is for certain is these will be highly sought after. So before you buy your dogs and burgers, set yourself up for a perfect BBQ with a crisp pair of True Blue IIIs, the perfect accouterment to any barbequed entree.
