Description
Continuing the celebration of the 30th Anniversary of the Air Jordan 3, Jordan Brand will be releasing a special edition Air Jordan 3 Seoul to commemorate the occasion. The shoe was created by Tinker Hatfield and Dan Sunwoo as a special project in Nike’s Innovation Kitchen. The Taegukgi (Korean flag) inspires the shoe’s overall color scheme, with the “taeguk” symbol expressed through the lining and collar’s blue and red and the white upper representing peace and purity (as it does on the flag). The sneaker also draws inspiration from the colors of the South Korean flag, and features black, red, and blue accents on the inner lining and collar. The classic silhouette maintains its white tumbled leather upper and elephant print accents. 서울 (Seoul) is featured on the left inner tongue, while the 1988 summer games motto 화합과 전진 (Harmony and Progress) is featured on the right inner tongue. The heel reads “Nike Air” in a clear nod to the original Air Jordan 3.
