It’s only fitting that Jordan Brand’s 40th anniversary features guest appearances from their most steadfast modern collaborator. James Whitner’s A Ma Maniere surpassed the dozen-pair mark in 2024, and its hot streak isn’t slowing down a bit in 2025. Our best look yet at the A Ma Maniere Air Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue” has just surfaced.

These fresh shots spell out many returning touches from the partners’ previous product, including raw finishes on the collar, suede paneling that replaces the typical elephant print, an off-white midsole, and a silken quilted interior. The tongue tag is novel here, but squeezes many of the already-established hallmarks of the brand into one, from the pronouncement that the shoe is “inspired by street culture, fashion and the greatest athlete in history” to the man himself’s signature.

If there’s any criticism levied against A Ma Maniere and their incredibly deep roster of Jordan collabs, it’s been directed towards their retread palettes, particularly the off-white/black/burgundy scheme that graced their Jordan 1, Jordan 12, and their previous Jordan 3. Even if there are some similarities between this shoe’s pantones and the Air Jordan 5 “Dawn” from 2023, this outfit should still be a breath of fresh air for that cadre, stepping a bit out of the Baltimore conglomerate’s comfort zone while still maintaining an elevated, luxe air.

The A Ma Maniere Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue” is currently slated to release on March 15th, 2025 — retail is set at $225. Like most AMM drops, it’ll almost assuredly be spread across multiple dates. Keep our Jordan Releases 2025 landing page handy to stay current with the latest info.
