Things are on the upswing for Michael Jordan’s third signature shoe. Fresh off the heels of the news of next year’s return of the Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat”, we’re now revealing a first look at this June 2024’s Air Jordan 3 “Quai 54” designed to celebrate the annual tournament in Paris.
Much like the recently previewed Air Jordan 1 Low “Quai 54”, this newest spin on the AJ3 sees a calm and collected design that features the Quai 54 basketball logo embroidered onto the tongue and featured on the heel behind a translucent plate. Atop is a white leather base with a black suede panel replacing the customary elephant pattern, while a sail-colored midsole adds that aged effect that has become so commonplace in footwear. In fact, the iconic pattern that helped the Air Jordan 3 become a timeless piece of sneaker art has been transferred to the interior.
Beginning in 2014, the Quai 54 tournament was cultivated by founder Hammadoun Sidibé; with the help of Jordan Brand, it has become one of the premiere hoops events in the calendar year.
While a firm release date for the Air Jordan 3 “Quai 54” has yet to be announced, you can depend on a release to arrive sometime on or around late June which is when the 2024 Quai 54 festivities are scheduled. Stay tuned to our Jordan release dates page for the latest.
