Air Jordan 3 Retro ‘Kobe Bryant’ PE White Purple

The pair comes with tradition white leather and cement elephant print, but Lakers gold and purple shades hit the heel, Jumpman branding, and lining.

Are Air Jordan 3 Good For Basketball?

One could play basketball in an Air Jordan 3, however it is inadvisable when compared to more advanced modern basketball sneakers available. Today’s tech surpasses that of the 80s and 90s with respect to sports performance.

I would put the Air Jordan 3 strictly in the casual category. While one could theoretically hoop in some retro Js, this is nowhere near ideal. I find walking in the Air Jordan 3 is ok, as long as you don’t overdo it. A few miles at a time is fine though.
