We Went Hunting for Resale's Best Jordan 3s & Here's What We Got
What used to be a closed, exclusive community of sneakerheads has become a worldwide phenomenon. With more people on board, the trends in sneakers take hold more forcefully but also move more quickly. Classic sneakers take on a life of their own, falling into disregard one month before being revived heroically by a single release or celebrity endorsement the next. One classic silhouette that always seems to be on the menu, though, is the Nike Air Jordan 3.
With a couple of strong recent drops under its name, the Air Jordan 3 has edged its way back into the spotlight; the spotlight that, for the past year, has been dominated by the Jordan 1. Nobody stays at the top forever, though. But while new Air Jordan 3 releases sell out in raffles, there’s a whole world of aftermarket Jordan 3 silhouettes at eBay which are sure to make more of an impact on foot.
To pay our respects to an all-time classic, and to prep our rotation for what looks set to be a summer of Air Jordan 3s, we hit eBay to round up the best Air Jordan 3 colorways on offer.
Shop the best Air Jordan 3 Colorways on eBay below.
Black Cement
Last released in 2018, this iconic colorway commemorates the Air Jordan 3's 30th anniversary. Elephant hits to the toe box and heel add texture to a black leather upper.
Cyber Monday
The Nike Air Jordan 3 Cyber Monday is one for the purists. With a full-grain black leather upper and a clean white sole unit, it's one of the simplest colorways in this roundup.
Pure Money
Okay, Cyber Monday gets pipped at the finish line by the Air Jordan 3 Pure Money for the simplest colorway. Triple White never fails, and as we're reaching the sunny days of summer, this pair is essential.
True Blue
When the Air Jordan 3 True Blue released in 2016 it was the first time that fans had been able to cop a new pair of 3s since 2011. We haven't forgotten that sense of excitement, and this pair hasn't lost any of its classic appeal.
Rust Pink
Released just a few weeks ago, the Air Jordan 3 Rust Pink landed as a women's exclusive. The pink nubuck uppers set the tone for this summer-ready pair.
Black Cat
Black cats are meant to be unlucky, but this 2007 pair will only bring positivity. Taking after its Jordan 4 counterpart, the Jordan 3 Black Cat features a Triple-Black colorway which is as timeless as it is punchy.
NY Knicks
Knicks fans have had a season to remember and, let's be honest, it came out of the blue. There may never be a better time to proudly rep your Knicks allegiance.
Katrina
Released in 2018, the Air Jordan 3 Katrina is a 1:1 replica of a style auctioned off in 2005 to aid with the relief efforts for hurricane Katrina. Subtle variations on a classic colorway make this a true collector's pair.
Animal Instict
Nike's Animal Packs have become a fan favorite and the Jordan 3 iteration was no exception. Featuring a range of animal-print panels to the upper, the Jordan 3 Animal Instinct is not one for the faint of heart.
UNC
Paying homage to Michael Jordan's alma mater, the University of North Carolina, the Jordan 3 UNC dropped in 2020. It comes bearing the signature University Blue hue that has become a permanent fixture in the Jumpman universe.
JTH Bio
Justin Timberlake is, if you didn't already know, a dedicated sneakerhead and firm believer in the power of the Jordan 3. It's illustrated as well as it can be with how fire the Timberlake-designed JTH Bio is.
Chlorophyll
Light grey & white uppers set the backdrop for black hits to the toe box and heel while the titular Chlorophyll color stands proud on the tongue tab and eyelets.
