Jordan Brand brings us more heat with this all-original Air Jordan III colorway. The usually white or black upper has been replaced with a medium grey color, complemented by a matching strip of grey patent leather. Black carbon elephant print and a white midsole complete the sneaker. So far, not much info has been released on these, but one things for sure, they are definitely a hot pair. Stay tuned for more information.

I posted the Air Jordan III “Rainbow” kids sneaker earlier this month, and as no surprise, they received mixed opinions. Some of you loved the colorful look, while others thought that the laces killed what would have been a good-looking sneaker. Well, love them or hate them, the Rainbow 3s are available for purchase now. You can get them from Extra Butter, and many other stores are starting to receive them as well.

Check out this new Air Jordan III colorway, made especially for the kiddies. This pair has a primarily white upper, with a soft grey elephant print, that almost blends in tot the rest of the shoe. Usually the elephant print stands on on most Air Jordan 3 models, but this time, it’s the laces. The laces have been dyed in a rainbow pattern, which includes red, pink, blue, yellow, and green. To keep things a little normal, the graphics and sock liner has been done in red. HK Kicks.

For those of you who missed out on the Black/Cement Air Jordan IIIs in 2008’s 3/20 Collezione Pack (you know you only wanted the IIIs), I’ve got great news. The Black/Cement Air Jordan III is scheduled for release again in November. The picture below is from the 2008 Collezione pack, but if they are as nice as this year’s White/Cement-Fire Red release, I’m sure they won’t disappoint. Stay tuned for more on these.

After eight long years, the White/True Blue Air Jordan III Retro is finally getting a U.S. release. The official release date for the White/True Blue Air Jordan III is June 4, 2011 (06/4/11). Thankfully, it looks as if Jordan Brand took their time on these, and maintaining the same quality seen on the “overseas only” version released in ’09.

This is definitely the year of the Air Jordan III. First we got the White/Cement IIIs, then the Black History Months, the Stealths for kids, and of course the True Blues later this year. Now, here’s a look at another possible colorway. Pics of this new Pearlized sample just surfaced and they are already getting a lot of attention. The entire upper has received a pearlized finish, off-white accents, and matching elephant print. Hopefully I’ll be able to add these to the Air Jordan Release Dates list.

It’s only been two years since the last release, but True Blue IIIs are already making a return. Luckily, this time they won’t be limited to Asia, instead we will get a general release. Judging from the looks of things, these are super close to the 2009 version. The White/True Blue Air Jordan III will officially be available in June, but right now, you can cop them at Marqueesole.
Got a new Air Jordan III colorway for you guys today. This pair uses a number of greytone colors, starting with light grey on the top, then a darker grey on the bottom and on the toe box, finished off with black on the tonge and midsole. A red Jumpman and a set of white laces and a little more personality to the sneaker. Unfortunately, these will only come in kids sizes. Doesn’t it just suck when they get all the cool colorways? Proof again that life is unfair.

These have been out for a little while now, but I never got around to sharing. Better late than never, I guess. If January’s White/Cement Air Jordan III release wasn’t good enough for you, Jordan Brand has teamed up with Skullcandy (the headphone guys) to create an even better package. The Skullcandy Pack includes a pair of White/Cement Air Jordan IIIs, a beautiful set of Aviator headphones decorated in chrome and elephant print, and a cool bag to carry the headphones in. A slide out box holds the pack together, with a foam insert design to fit all of the items perfectly. Only 23 packages were produced, so they are extremely rare. Luckily, about half of them are on ebay right now (makes me wonder…). If you’d like to cop a pack, here’s a link to the listings.

This year, both Jordan Brand and Nike have decided to celebrate black history month with special colorways of the Air Jordan III Retro and Nike Zoom Kobe VI. Both colorways feature a mostly black and gold upper with gold accents, and Black History Month logos.

For years, there’s been rumors of a re-release of the classic White/Cement Grey-Fire Red Air Jordan IIIs. First we got the rumor of the Slam Dunk Package, and then they were “confirmed” for release this year. Well, once again, I’ve got more news regarding the return of the White/Cement IIIs, but this time, it looks to be legit. Here’s a pic from Jordan Brand’s catalog. Apparently, they are scheduled for release in February or March. Let’s hope it happens this time, I’m not unDSing my 2003 pair anytime soon.

Just a reminder that tomorrow (Saturday), the 25th Anniversary Air Jordan III, Air Jordan IV, and Air Jordan IX Retro all release. All three pairs will be available at most retailers, as well as online. If you’re worried about a sellout, there’s a ton available on ebay, and reasonably priced as well. Here’s a link to the search results.

Take a look at these. When design team at Jordan Brand brainstormed ideas for this season’s Jordan Motorsports sneakers, it looks like they considered the IIIs. Similar to the Motorsports Air Jordan 6 and Six Rings, this pair has a white upper contrasted by a black outsole, tongue and sockliner. I still prefer the VIs, but this pair would’ve been a nice choice, also.

Here’s some close up pics of the Air Jordan III Retro from the upcoming 25th anniversary package. As with the other modesl from the package, this pair has an all-white color scheme. They are topped off with an extra-fat pair of white elephant print laces, and silver eyelets. Expect to see these sometime next year. I sure hope Jordan Brand decides to sell those laces separate, they would look pretty clean in my Fire Red 3s.
