Known to some as Dark Mocha and others as Neapolitan, both for the appealing colors found across its outer, this Jordan 3 Retro combines an elegant style with richly toned highlights to create a highly desirable sneaker. It rests upon a rubber outsole with a variety of blocky grip patterns on the Dark Mocha sections around its outer edge and concentric rings emanating across the Atmosphere pink oval below the forefoot. A smoother section in Sail can be found beneath the heel and medial edge, bright red Jordan text embossed into its center. The midsole is also decorated in the off-white tone of Sail, giving it a vintage look, though its upper rear quarter comes in a pleasant pastel pink. Just below this is a window that allows the wearer to see the bouncy Air cushioning held inside it, thus showing off its comfort-giving properties.

On the upper, white tumbled leather has been used for the mudguard and the main overlay, lending the sneaker a gentle texture. Elephant-print overlays mark the toe and heel, the classic AJ3 graphic created by pairing Dark Mocha with a lighter shade of brown. Around the collar and the eyestay, tiny perforations have been revealed where the leather overlay has receded a little. As well as bringing an offbeat aesthetic to these parts, the holes allow the foot to breathe. The lower half of the tongue does the same with its own ventilation holes, while the white laces that criss-cross over it are held in place by various different styles of eyelet. At the bottom, Atmosphere ringlets pressed into the leather upper secure the laces. Higher up, white TPU semi-circles emerge from the eyestay to offer more eyelets, before the front of the collar delivers the final ones, which are made of Dark Mocha TPU.

The shoe’s interior is coated in a soft, fluffy material that has been decorated white on the inner walls and Atmosphere on the back of the tongue and the insole. A dark Jumpman adorns this last feature, and another leaps across the center of the heel panel, once more in the rich hue of Dark Mocha. Below this latter logo, the word “Air” has also been thickly embossed, and the top of the white heel panel includes parallel ridges that can be gripped when pulling the shoe on. Finally, the white leather upper half of the tongue has been embroidered with one last Jumpman silhouette, this one in light Atmosphere thread, for a delicate touch that provides a fitting conclusion to this graceful sneaker.
