The return of the Air Jordan XX3, Michael Jordan’s 23rd signature shoe, has been acted upon and it makes perfect sense for Nike to bring back this Tinker Hatfield design in the year 2023.
The return of this silhouette, one of the most unique designs in sneaker history, coincides with the Year of the Water Rabbit, which begins on January 22. And, to celebrate the event, Nike designers have given it an exclusive dressing.
So, in a color palette of light silver, red, ivory, metallic gold and white, this offering of the Air Jordan XX3 comes in a white leather base, with a circular dot pattern that covers the entire lateral overlay, from the forefoot to the back of the shoe.
On the toe box mudguard, we see a signature Michael Jordan design printed in gold while another red circular pattern frames the Jumpman on the tongue.
Other details include a gold rabbit printed on the inside of the tongue, a gold Jumpman on the red insole, gold hardware and chiseled midsoles to stay true to the 2008 design.
