We are very much in the rumour phase again, as more and more leaks continue to show us sneakers planned for the future. One version could be this Air Jordan 3 inspired by the iconic Air Jordan 7 "Cardinal" from 1992. Check out the first images of the possible Air Jordan 3 "Cardinal" here.

So far, info on the sneaker is thin, but expect a premium white leather construction in the "White/Light Curry/Cardinal Red/Cement Grey" colourway with the legendary elephant print.

According to insiders, the iconic red adorns the midsole, eyelets, and lining, while yellow is responsible for the branding on the tongues. The colourway is then rounded off with white soles and grey outsoles.

So far, only this mockup of the Air Jordan 3 "Cardinal" exists. Nike hasn't confirmed the drop yet, but we're supposedly looking at a January 2022 release.
