Product Description
After a long 8 years, Jordan Brand re-released the Air Jordan Retro 3 "True Blue" in 2009. Well, sort of. The 2009 release was one of the most confusing Jordan releases, in part because every sneaker blog was trying to break the info, and partly because the release never happened in the US. For the most part, regionalized releases are rare with Jordan retros. So when the first images of the "White/True Blue" Jordan 3 Retro surfaced online in the summer of 2009, the assumption by many sneaker blogs was that it "would be arriving stateside in the near future." Well, unfortunately for Americans, that didn’t happen. The True Blue Jordan 3 did land at a large number of retailers around the world, including major Canadian accounts like Foot Locker, which made them attainable, even if you had to phone a friend for an oop to get a pair. Like the previous True Blue Jordan 3 Retro, the 2009 version featured the Jordan Jumpman logo on the heel instead of the OG Nike Air as Tinker Hatfield intended it. But with 8 years between releases sneakerheads were ready for the Air Jordan Retro 3 "True Blue" to return, regardless of the heel logo, and the release sold out over the course of a few weeks.
