Jordan Brand looks to continue giving the Air Jordan 3 with yet another brand new colorway of the silhouette dropping next month. This time it is a limited edition "Seoul" version releasing exclusively in South Korea.
First spotted on the feet of South Korea'a FIBA head coach Jae Hur, this new version of the Air Jordan 3 covers the silhouette in the colors of the Korean flag. This special version of the model was created by Tinker Hatfield and Dan Sunwoo in Nike's Innovation Kitchen to pay tribute to the 30th anniversary of the city hosting the summer games and MJ winning the 1988 Slam Dunk Contest.
White tumbled leather makes up a majority of the upper and is trimmed in royal blue leather on the heel and red on the lining. The shoe sports the traditional elephant print overlays, and even utilizes the OG "Nike Air" branding on the heel tab. Details setting this shoe apart from a standard 3 are the Taegukgi flag embroidered on the right tongue, "Seoul" written in Korean on the back of the left tongue, and "Harmony and Progress" written in Korean on the back right tongue as well.
