The Nike Air Jordan 3 “Laser” has been a sneaker whispered about for over two decades. Originally designed in 2003 to celebrate Michael Jordan’s 40th birthday, it was one of those mythical pairs that few ever saw in person and even fewer actually touched.
Rumours swirled around its scarcity, with whispers that as few as 40 pairs were ever created. It quickly became a grail.
Now, in Autumn 2026, the sneaker finally reaches retail. Staying true to the original sample, this reissue swaps the iconic elephant print overlays for laser-etched artwork across its Phantom upper.
This etching isn’t just decorative, it’s a celebration of Jordan Brand storytelling, each panel etched with detail to give the shoe depth and individuality. Inside, tan leather lining adds richness, while multi-colour hits across the lace loops and branding give vibrancy to what is otherwise a monochrome palette.
Underfoot, the pair stays grounded with a white midsole offset by black and grey detailing, a classic Jordan touch that balances the experimental etching above. Laser-engraved Nike Air branding on the heel seals the deal.
