It’s no coincidence that this year has arguably been the best from Jordan Brand in a long, long time, as 2025 marks the label's 40th anniversary. Outside of the revived OGs and grail-status sneakers, new renditions of staple models in the Jordan Retro lineup have steadily been released throughout the year. Next up for the Air Jordan 3 is the Family Affair colorway.
Early reports pinned this Air Jordan 3 as part of a wider project with Realtree Camo, which has worked on a handful of Nike Calm silhouettes and even the Air Force 1 Low in 2025. However, the pair refrains from any camo or graphic patterns for an earthy medium olive color scheme across its suede upper. Tonal green elephant print appears on the heel tab, perforated suede tongue and eyestays, and on the collar.
