“Cardinal” Air Jordan 3 coming January 2022

Brandon King

Although I don’t want to prematurely knock this shoe, it illuminates a major issue with Jordan Brand. As was touched on in our article on the “Royalty” Air Jordan 12, Jordan Brand he’s well aware of the sneakers in specific colorways that their consumer/fan base wants.

It sports white leather foundational layer overlaid with aluminium at the toe, eyerows, heel and at the lateral and medial Swooshes. Aluminium also shows up at the inner and the tongue label, which features white branding. Below the aforementioned upper resides…

Brandon King

As a cruel tease to sneaker enthusiasts who have been craving a return of the “Taxi” Air Jordan 12, the good folks at Jordan Brand decided to bring forth the “Royalty” Air Jordan 12.
