ORIGINAL STORY:

Jordan Brand’s archives are full of classic and iconic sneakers, with fan-favorite colorways that are constantly being reinterpreted. This week, the Air Jordan 3’s OG “True Blue” look has leaked as a potential retro release for Fall 2026.

The Air Jordan 3 has been widely regarded as one of the best mainline Jordan models since the shoe debuted back in 1988. Cited alongside many of the early numbered pairs like 1s, 4s, 5s, and more (sorry AJ2, I still love you), the 3 remains an essential piece of the Jordan catalog to this day, though it presents as a lifestyle shoe in 2025. The 3 was our introduction to the elephant print pattern now synonymous with Jordan retros, as well as introducing the semi-controversial Jumpman logo, replacing the Nike Air and Wings logos previously seen on Jordan models.

This week, we have a new leak for the 2026 release calendar, and its a good one. Next Fall, the OG “True Blue” colorway of the Air Jordan 3 will return, after its last retro release in 2016. Decades and multiple retro releases later, this colorway still hits just as hard. The look features a pristine white leather upper, two-tone grey elephant print panels, and accents on deep royal blue and Varsity Red. As of now, it is unclear if this 3 release will feature the Nike Air or Jumpman logo on the heels.

AIR JORDAN 3 OG “TRUE BLUE” RELEASE INFORMATION

The next release of an OG colorway for the Air Jordan 3 has not been announced yet, but is currently expected to arrive during the Fall 2026 season. The classic “True Blue” style is coming back about ten years after its last release in 2016, and is a must for longtime fans of the model. Pairs will be avialable through both Nike and select retailers for an expected $220.

UPDATE 6/3/26: Our first look at this year’s “True Blue” Jordan 3 retro has surfaced this week, in new retailer images from JD Sports UK unearthed by SneakerMarket.RO. The pair pictured is in GS sizing, and JD’s photos have a very high exposure, making the blue tone seem much lighter than it likely is. We will update this page again when official images emerge and a release date is confirmed. For now, they are expected to drop on July 18th, 2026.
