Matt Varga Every year around this time, the PE slate for Nike athletes really begins to heat up, with tournament participants gifted special makeups of the brand’s roster of hoops shoes. Thus, it’s no surprise that we’ve been treated to exclusive editions of the Ja 3, Sabrina 3, KD 18, and more signatures in recent days. What does come as a major surprise is the dawn of some Jumpman heat, as an “EYBL” variation of the Air Jordan 3 has now surfaced.
In similar fashion to the Air Jordan 3 “Jordan Brand Classic” revealed earlier in 2025, the real special edition cues for this shoe come in the trim. A hazy, galactic pattern defines the heel tab and rear swatch of the midsole, bleeding its coloring onto the Jumpman hangtag, laces, and eyelets. To fully stamp its ultimate purpose, those heel sections split between Jumpman and EYBL branding, continuing on the insoles for some additional fortification.
While the tongue tag is crucially obscured where the season is stamped, insiders who have shared this pair confidently stamp it as the 2025 edition. This swirling, marbled motif is a hallmark of EYBL iteration in general, prominently featured on the Air Jordan 1 Low OG from 2022, the LeBron 20 from 2023, and the GT Cut from 2024.
Sadly, this Air Jordan 3 “EYBL” is locked away behind either tournament participation or a sky-high resale price otherwise. Still, even if most will likely never hold this pair in hand, they’re as intriguing from a distance as any of the brands’ various PE efforts. Catch detailed shots included below.
