Jordan Brand continues to harken back to storied moments in Michael Jordan’s illustrious career, whether they be memorable playoff shots or iconic performances during charitable exhibitions. Calling back to MJ’s 54-point performance during the 1988 Magic Johnson Midsummer Night’s Magic Charity Game is this Air Jordan 3 dressed in a decidedly patriotic color scheme. While MJ led the way that night with those 54 points, it was his assist to Kiki Vandeweghe that became one of the most memorable moments, as it helped the Blue squad get to 200 points – breaking the scoreboard and causing it revert back to double zeroes.
An all-over star graphic takes over the entirety of this AJ3’s insole while the midsole is split between Sport Royal and Fire Red. Sporting all the usual details of the Jordan 3 that is currently celebrating its 30th anniversary, Jordan Brand has placed Michael’s famous signature on the tongue alongside the illustrious Jumpman logo. Set to release as part of the “International Flight” Pack this Summer, it speaks to the unmatched international influence that MJ had on the game, popularizing it all across the globe. Below, you will find another detailed set of images for the Air Jordan 3 “Charity Game”, and be sure to be on the look out for its release on June 30th.
