FAQs

What year did the Air Jordan 3 Cool Grey originally release?

The Air Jordan 3 'Cool Grey' colorway originally released in 2007. This retro version was released in February 2021.

What materials are used in the Air Jordan 3 Cool Grey?

The upper is primarily constructed of Cool Grey Durabuck with genuine leather accents and signature elephant-print overlays. The sole is a combination of white and dark grey rubber.

How do I clean the elephant print sections?

Gently clean the elephant print with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid abrasive materials.

Are these suitable for basketball performance?

While inspired by basketball heritage, the Air Jordan 3 Cool Grey is designed for lifestyle wear and everyday comfort, not for high-performance athletic activities like professional basketball.

What does 'AJ3' stand for?

AJ3 is a common abbreviation for the Air Jordan 3, referring to the third signature shoe model in Michael Jordan's line.

What is the difference between the 2007 and 2021 versions?

The 2021 retro largely stays true to the 2007 original, including the Jumpman logo on the heel instead of 'Nike Air'. Minor material refinements may be present.

How do I ensure the best fit?

These trainers generally run true to size. It is recommended to consult a size chart and consider trying them on if possible. If between sizes, some prefer to go up half a size for a slightly roomier fit.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Normal wear and tear for leather. To minimize, use shoe trees when not in use and avoid over-tightening laces.

Discoloration of accents

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Clean accent areas gently with a damp cloth only.

Traction issues on wet surfaces

The rubber sole provides good traction, but like most trainers, performance may be reduced on extremely wet or slippery surfaces. Exercise caution.

Laces wearing out

Replace laces with standard trainer laces of a similar length and color. Available at most footwear retailers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These are ready-to-wear footwear. No specific setup is required upon purchase.

Compatibility:

Designed as men's trainers, compatible with standard adult foot sizing.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Leather: Wipe the genuine leather upper with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild leather cleaner sparingly. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water.
  • Elephant Print: Gently clean the elephant print overlays with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dust and dirt.
  • Midsole and Sole: Clean the matte midsole and rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For scuffs, a magic eraser can be used cautiously.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe box or dust bag to protect from dust and direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain shape.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protectant spray to guard against water and stains, especially for the Durabuck upper.
