Jordan's Frankenstein Sneaker Is Its Best-Looking Hybrid in a While
The Air Jordan 2/3 shoe launched earlier this year as an expected treat from the Nike lab. This sneaker is the latest evidence of the sportswear giant recently producing some solid Frankenstein creations, like trail-ready dad shoes and effortless mashups of the greatest Air Maxes and football boots.
The Jordan 2/3 is a low-rise sneaker that seamlessly blends the second and third Jordan sneakers into one single shoe, resulting in a hybrid oozing recognizable details in a simple but tasteful way.
Like there's no denying the sleek, luxury-level upper pulled from the premium Air Jordan 2. At the same time, Air Jordan 3 fans can easily identify those borrowed Air-infused soles.
Blasphemous? No, the Jordan 2/3 is a tasteful combo that even the most diehard Jordan devotees can acknowledge as a worthy creation.
Further indicating the shoe's throwback classiness, the Jordan 2/3 sneaker continues to boast timeless paint jobs, like "Varsity Red" and "Cement Grey."
The latest schemes are also quite clever in the sense that some variations (and similar colorways) have graced both the Jordan 2 and Jordan 3 in the past.
The Jordan 2/3's beauty only grows as the sneaker embraces even more stunning colorways, like this forthcoming "Black/Metallic Silver," again riffing on existing makeups previously seen on prior Jordan 2 and 3 designs.
On the latest Jordan 2/3, black shades completely dominate the crisp pebbled upper and thick Air sole, while silver strikes elsewhere as a contrasting metallic-tinged detail, lending the otherwise neutral shoe an appreciable dose of look-at-me affectation.
In case you're looking to up your hybrid Jordan game, the "Black/Metallic Silver" Jordan 2/3 is now up for grabs at Shoe Palace for $160.
Several sizes are already sold out (no surprises there), so I'd act fast if I were you.
