Double Tap to Zoom

2023 wrapped up with a remarkable array of Nike Air Jordan 3 sneakers, from J Balvin's highly-anticipated collaboration to the revival of the legendary "White Cement" 3s. Continuing the Jordan 3 streak, Nina Chanel Abney brings her artistic touch to the third Jordan model for a 2024 team-up.

Abney recently debuted first looks at her Air Jordan 3 sneakers, which arrive dressed in gorgeous green and tan shades. I also detect some neon orange hues peaking out slightly on the heel tab.

Beneath its vibrant grass green paint job, the sneaker offers a delightful textural contrast, with hints of suede and canvas panels adorning the upper. This pleasing blend of materials adds a special feel to the design, inviting appreciation from sneaker enthusiasts and art lovers alike.

A couple of months ago, Abney previewed a couple of Jordan 3 heel pieces, where Nike Air and "23" logos were realized in the artist's signature font style. At the time, there was also a bunch of green present, sending signals about the shoe's leading color.

When it comes to crucial details like the release date, Abney is keeping fans on their toes. In her Jordan 3 reveal post, she playfully captioned it with '#septemberspringsummer' accompanied by a rolling laughing emoji, sparking anticipation and excitement about the potential release date.

A few sneaker leakers, however, tell fans to keep an eye out for the Nina Chanel Abney x Jordan 3 sneaker around June 2024.

Like her famous and colorful artworks, Abney's unexpected sneaker team-ups are also attention-grabbers (and I say this in the best way). In 2022, Abney dropped one of the coolest Jordan 2s ever, dishing out extra-smooth takes on the iconic model in classic schemes.

It's also not every day that you catch Timberland's famed 6-inch boot with way bottoms and interchangeable panels (also an Abney creation, by the way).

Although we only have a side view of Abney's newest Jordan 3 sneaker (right now), I can tell the artist's new Jordan collab is about to be another good one by Abney.
