Air Jordan Iii Box Comparison 21

Last week’s solefly x air jordan 3 lotto 2014 release date release marked the fourth overall release of the shoe; before 2011 was a Retro release in 2003 and 1994, and of course, jordan why not zer01 white black online. With the 2011 version arriving with a great Jordan box inspired by the original, an Air Jordan III retrospective might’ve ran through your thoughts once or twice. Here’s a look back at the Original 1988, 1994 Retro, and 2011 Retro box packaging of the White/Cement III; the original version, in which the 2011 version was modeled after, featured a black box-top with a red Jumpman and Nike Air insignia, while the 2011 version features a Jumpman and Jumpman Air logo (for obvious reasons). So what’s the deal with the 1994 box? If you remember, 1994 was Michael Jordan’s first full year of retirement, and Nike was planning ahead on keeping the Air Jordan Legacy alive after he was no longer an active player, and re-issuing game Air Jordans was one way to rekindle the fire. The box itself is a mosiac of all the Air Jordans up to that date, depicting the Air Jordan models from years before as well as Spike Lee and the popular Air Jordan III ad campaigns in which he was a part of.

In addition to comparing the previous boxes is a nice side-by-side between the Air Jordan III from 1994 and 2011. The ’94 version was the last of its colorway to feature Nike Air on the heel (The Jordan Brazil Pack is Limited to 2000 Units and was housed in a plain Jordan Brand box), but the branding issue isn’t the only discrepancy; the upper dimensions have been slightly altered over the years, although noticeable only when juxtaposed (how often will that really happen?). There are a lot more comparison shots below so check give them a quick look and let us know what you think. A big thank you to the Kicktionary team for sending cmft great shots, and if you still haven’t picked up a pair of the White/Cement IIIs yet, grab a pair now on eBay.
