The Air Jordan 3, the First Air Jordan to Have the Jumpman Logo
Some have called the Air Jordan 3 sneaker to be the best Air Jordan shoe ever made. Of course, since then there have been many other Air Jordan shoes made so that debate will go on for ages. This shoes was, however, the first to have the Jumpman logo on it. The logo was a result of Michael Jordan winning the slam dunk contest and making that famous dunk from the foul line. Little did he know that this dunk would become the symbol of Air Jordans for the rest of time.
This shoe was also the first to have the clear air unit inside the sole of the shoe. The air units would be used in many Jordan shoes and other shoes made by nike. You can still buy Jordan shoes that are retroes or even authentic Air Jordans on ebay and other sites.
