Jordan Brand’s roster has grown in stature and influence outside of basketball in the last few years. Many of the biggest names in music, including Travis Scott and Billie Eilish, proudly sport the Jumpman on their sleeves. J Balvin has joined this prestigious class with the debut of his Air Jordan 1 and Air Jordan 2 in 2020 and 2022, respectively. And so it seems later this year, as if chronologically, the Colombian artist will extend his wild design proclivities to the Air Jordan 3.

Not much is known about the J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 other than—surprisingly, its release date, which is projected to be on 2 September. If its predecessors are to be followed, expect the AJ3 to be painted in a vibrant palette too, ascertained by its “Multi-color/Multi-color/Multi-color” color code. Not only on the shoes themselves but also the accompanying apparel confirmed to be on the way.
