The Air Jordan 3 “Archaeo Brown” gets a “winterized” version much like its younger sibling, the Air Jordan 4 did in 2019.

The silhouette retains its familiar aesthetic with this variation featuring a more diverse mix of materials. An archaeo brown nubuck leather forms the main torso of the upper, from the toebox to the collar. Purple ballistic mesh form the entirety of the tongue with a slight lighter gradation towards the head, before returning to its original on the ankle collar. Pink fossil stone hues decorate the eyestays and traverses along the mudguard, before being broken by the black Sashiko stitching on the heel counter, also present on the cap.

Branding elements remain where they originally were, with the Jumpman on the tongue dressed the same as the purple mesh below it, while the one on the heel is in black. The Jordan typeface logo sits underfoot on the outsole. A final touch of grey round out the color palette with sail on the midsole, heel counter, and laces completing the design.

This AJ3 winter variation is set to “fall” on 8th October on SNKRS. Should anything change, we’ll let you know before you can say, “Winter is coming.”

On that note, warm yourself up with the upcoming BAPE x OVO Fall/Winter 2022 collection.
