Is that the Air Jordan III ’88 on the feet of Ludacris? There’s unfortunately no telling since all we’ve got are frontal shots, but we’d like to think that Luda got his hands on that “Nike Air” equipped sneaker. The rapper/actor is shown here at a media event from Fast & Furious 6 (Yes, they made six of those movies). Continue reading to see the whole gallery of shots on Ludacris bringing out this crispy pair of the Air Jordan III “White/Cement” and make sure you give us your thoughts in the comments on the always-controversial inclusion of the hang-tag on his footwear.

If you’re smart enough to show up to Sneaker Con when the show hits your town, you’re bound to stumble across some sneakers that you’ve never seen before in the flesh.

Yet another crazy sample to come out from Flipjays’ table at Sneaker Con is this uber-rare sample of the Air Jordan III. Looks like the basic White/Cement colorway, correct? True, but check out the outsole because these are the infamous “Clear Sole” sample that never was produced. Of course, the clear icy sole isn’t a myth in the Air Jordan III storyline thanks to the Air Jordan III Doernbecher, but this unreleased sample of the White/Cement III which dates back to the early 2000s is definitely one of the crazier samples that have never been produced. More shots below, so take a look!

The iridescent “Invisibility Cloak” look has nearly completely disappeared (How apropos) after the frequent treatment it had across Swoosh styles in 2012. Reviving the look is this piece from Overdose of Opulence, an Air Jordan III styled up to go with the “Invisibility Cloak” theme. The color shifting look is slapped on via the sole tooling, the back tab, and the Jumpman, with the base of the sneaker getting outfitted in jet black. Interestingly enough the pair actually started off as worn down Air Jordan III “Pure”, which was definitely given a second lifetime via this custom. See more after the jump and tell us if you approve of the Air Jordan III “Invisibility Cloak”.

Over the years we’ve seen some amazing (and questionable) colorways of Air Jordans and Air Jordan Retros surface on the web. In fact, there might be as many unreleased mock-ups as there are produced versions, but who knows what’s really stowed in the deep dark vaults inside the Jordan Brand headquarters and overseas factories? We’ve compiled a fairly thorough gallery of some notable Air Jordan sample colorways that have never seen the light of day at retail; some of these already have noted legends behind them, like the Air Jordan VI “Infrared” Retro with the flipped midsole and the Air Jordan V “Gold” that may or may not have been made for an employee, but some of the stuff we’ve come across cause us to question why the shoes were never released, or why they were created in the first place! Of course, this gallery isn’t a complete list of every unreleased sample, but take a moment to skim through the gallery below and let us know which unreleased Air Jordan sample catches your eyes the most.

It seems like no sneaker is safe from the random re-stocking: that massively coveted Air Jordan III ’88 retro will be restocked on Saturday, May 25th at 8AM EST. The upcoming restock is the latest in a string of random arrivals that have brought back some of the most sought after styles, a topic we touched on in our “What Do You Think?” series just a couple of weeks back. In fact, the Nikestore re-stockalypse that went down back then combined with this upcoming one marks two more times that the Air Jordan III ’88 with the “Nike Air” branding will be back around. Keep in mind that reported retailers so far include Foot Locker and Footaction, both of whom will be releasing the Air Jordan III ’88 Retro restock on Saturday, May 25th at 8AM EST. Stay tuned for further retailers and check out what’s available already on eBay.
UPDATE: Nikestore will also restock the Air Jordan III Retro ’88 on May 25th.

The Air Jordan III “Fire Red” 2013 retro is another of the surprise Air Jordan III pairs we’ve got to look forward to this year. We say surprise because, let’s face it, nobody expected the coveted Air Jordan silhouette to be back so soon after the pretty thorough retro treatment that spilled out back in 2011. As you can see the pair is looking pretty on point, keeping intact some of the more minute details like the fire red hit under the tongue and the recently brought back hang tag. Continue reading for the full teaser and tell us if you approve of the “Fire Red” Air Jordan III for 2013 so far.
