Made with a dash of love and plenty of passion, the Air Jordan 3 “Valentine’s Day” offers up the court icon in pink. Switching it up from the obvious hearts and cupid motif, this special-edition pays attention to the smaller details, with red gemstones giving you a reason to love both your partner and the shoes on your feet.
This holiday-themed AJ3 flaunts a soft pink leather upper with darker shades encompassing the elephant print overlays on the toe and rear. Smooth textiles on the eyestay usher in an elegant feel, whilst dark red accents engulf the plastic eyelets and trademark Jumpman logo on the tongue, sockliner, and TPU heel panel. The white PU foam houses an exposed Air unit in the rear for lightweight cushioning, backed by a pink semi-translucent outsole.
Air Jordan 5 “Black Metallic Reimagined”
The iconic Air Jordan 5 is the latest silhouette to join the Reimagined series for the first time as it celebrates its 35th anniversary. First launched to the public in 1990, this Tinker Hatfield-designed basketball shoe is one of the classic styles that headlined an era of bulky, futuristic-looking sneakers that were ahead of time.

The iconic Air Jordan 5 is the latest silhouette to join the Reimagined series for the first time as it celebrates its 35th anniversary. First launched to the public in 1990, this Tinker Hatfield-designed basketball shoe is one of the classic styles that headlined an era of bulky, futuristic-looking sneakers that were ahead of time. Coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan line, this high-heat Air Jordan 5 OG “Black Metallic Reimagined” upgrades the beloved colourway by adding more reflective panels and staying true to the OG shape.
This colourway features a black smooth nubuck upper with a semi-translucent plastic netting on the sidewalls for breathability. The piping emits 3M reflective details, accompanying the bright illumination of the tongue and Nike Air branding on the heel. The padded collars and thick interiors offer superb comfort whilst keeping your feet secure. Red Jumpman logos and lace locks resonate with the Chicago Bulls uniforms. The white laces pay homage to when MJ switched up his on-court style to make his kicks stand out.
Air Jordan 3 “Lucky Shorts”
Air Jordan 3 “Lucky Shorts”
Leaning into another off-the-court Michael Jordan story, the Air Jordan 3 “Lucky Shorts” is an ode to the GOAT’s superstition.

Leaning into another off-the-court Michael Jordan story, the Air Jordan 3 “Lucky Shorts” is an ode to the GOAT’s superstition. Thanks to the Jordan Air Ship "Every Game Diffused Blue", a lot of sneakerheads are now aware of one of the legend's many rituals, an inkling that had MJ wearing his University of North Carolina Tar Heels practice shorts under his Chicago Bulls uniform to bring him good luck. Who are we to judge, a couple of people at the office have started wearing their school football team shorts to work because clearly it worked ... right?
Inspired by the iconic UNC colour scheme, this fresh Air Jordan 3 features a crisp white leather upper with UNC blue accents. Light grey suede bolsters the toe, rear, eyestay, and collar, devoid of the signature elephant print design. The Jumpman logo adorns the tongue, sockliner, and TPU heel, a nod to MJ’s high-flying prowess. Visible Air on the heel provides ample impact protection, whilst the pivot circle on the rubber sole ensures durable traction on the hardwood and concrete.

Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat”
Equally stealthy yet ferocious like its namesake feline, the Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat” returns for the first time.

Equally stealthy yet ferocious like its namesake feline, the Air Jordan 3 “Black Cat” returns for the first time. This clandestine iteration dropped in 2007 and became one of the most highly sought-after styles among the silhouette’s non-OG colourways. Headlining the brand’s Holiday ‘24 lineup, we can see why this rendition is high on the radar of sneakerheads and collectors.
Engulfed in all-black, this panther-inspired Air Jordan 3 rendition sports a nubuck construction, shored up by patent leather sidewalls. Signature elephant print overlays reinforce the toe and rear, an iconic detail that never goes unnoticed. These graphic prints also swathe the laces for added flair. Jumpman logos decorate the tongue and TPU heel panel. A visible Air unit in the rear renders low-to-the-ground cushioning, accompanied by a hidden bubble in the forefoot. Below, a white Jordan text contrasts the blacked-out ensemble.
The "Black Cat" AJ3s come in a standard Air Jordan 3 open lid box with cement print decorating the bottom half, along with your typical red Jumpman logo on top. It's worth noting that there are no extra laces inluded inside, so if you do want to swap in some black flat cotton laces for that extra stealthy look then you will have to source them yourself.
Air Jordan 5 “Golden Ticket"
The Air Jordan 5 “Golden Ticket” is Jordan Brand’s latest masterpiece, drawing inspiration from the whimsical world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

The Air Jordan 5 “Golden Ticket” is Jordan Brand’s latest masterpiece, drawing inspiration from the whimsical world of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. This imaginative rework of the 1990 classic merges luxury with storytelling, offering a fresh perspective on a beloved silhouette. The women’s exclusive “Golden Ticket” Air Jordan 5 is designed to inspire basketball players of all ages, according to its SNKRS description.
At the heart of its design lies the glossy Metallic Gold tongue, a striking nod to the golden ticket that symbolises unlocked dreams. Complementing this standout feature is a rich chocolate brown midsole and a clean sail upper, complemented by the iconic “23” and “Jumpman” branding on the heel.
Together, these elements capture the indulgent essence of candy while maintaining an air of sophistication. Earthy tones temper the bold gold accents, creating a balanced design that’s both versatile and eye catching. The sneaker also features modern details, such as the embroidered Jumpman logo and translucent outsole.
Classic features like the lace locks and mesh side panels remain intact, preserving the sneaker’s heritage.
As part of the 35th anniversary celebration of the Air Jordan 5, Jordan Brand has exciting plans to reintroduce several original colourways, including the legendary “Black Metallic”, and “Fire Red”.

From serpentine scales to intricate Eastern culture details, Jordan Brand’s Lunar New Year 2025 collection is all about premium. This Air Jordan 5 “CNY Year of the Snake” headlines the limited-edition capsule celebrating the symbolic creatures in the Chinese zodiac.
This basketball shoe features an off-white leather upper adorned with ornate patterns inspired by the theme. The plastic netting on the side panels and TPU eyestays blend with the pale white upper. Contrasting black shades envelop the padded tongue and Chinese character on the lateral rear. The razor-sharp shark teeth decorate the lateral forefoot, whilst the iconic Jumpman logo graces the tongue and heel. Jade green accents engulf the inner lining and midsole. The icy translucent sole sits underfoot for a premium finish. The shoe includes a golden snake medallion and a special-edition box.
Latest RELEASES - 2024
Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue”
Nina Chanel Abney x Air Jordan 3 OG SP WMNS
If you’ve been in sneakers long enough, rumors of the Air Jordan 4 OG “Military Blue” coming back have been synonymous with Retro rumors of the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” and the Air Jordan 4 “Thunder.” Now that both of those iconic sneakers have returned, it’s only right that the Air Jordan 4 OG “Military Blue gets the same treatment, just in time for the 35th Anniversary.
The 2024 iteration of the Air Jordan 4 OG “Military Blue” takes it back to 1989 as it boasts the classic Nike Air branding rather than the Jumpman heel badge seen on the 2006 and 2012 editions.
Releasing in full-family sizing, the Air Jordan 4 OG “Military Blue” will feature an Off White leather base with “Military Blue” accents on the midsole, tongue, eyelets, and heel. The quarter panel is equipped with a “Military Blue” underlay and topped off with the AJ4’s signature net. The upper sits atop a White sole unit with a transparent Air bubble to match. The color placement of this shoe was the inspiration for the 2022 Military Black Jordan 4.
Nina Chanel Abney x Air Jordan 3 OG SP WMNS
Nina Chanel Abney x Air Jordan 3 OG SP WMNS
The latest Nina Chanel x Air Jordan project follows the Air Jordan 2 and Air Jordan 2 Low from 2022, breaking a two-year hiatus of the partnership. The upcoming collaborative pair retains the classic design elements of the Air Jordan 3 silhouette while incorporating a unique “Bicoastal” colorway comprising black, malachite, and fossil alongside the titular hue. The green bicoastal tone predominately dresses the pair’s suede and canvas upper, while malachite hits are featured throughout with a remixed heel tab.
New York-based contemporary artist Nina Chanel Abney reunites with Jordan Brand for a brand-new collaboration featuring the Air Jordan 3. Known for her illustrative graphics packed with profound meaning, the designer first dabbled with the sportswear giant in 2022, featuring two minimalist iterations of the AJ2 alongside an exclusive apparel collection. Set to headline Summer ‘24, the Nina Chanel Abney x Air Jordan 3 “Bicoastal Black” showcases an eye-catching colour palette clad in a blue-green canvas upper and black suede overlays replacing the typical elephant print. Crisp white heel tabs showcase Abney’s hand-written Nike and Jordan branding. Sail white tones envelop the PU midsole, propped up by a blacked-out rubber sole.
A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 3 “Burgundy Crush”
Whitaker Group’s A Ma Maniére celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2024 with another highly anticipated collaboration with Jordan Brand. Since their debut team-up in 2021, the two powerhouse brands have taken the sneaker scene by storm as they continue to deliver limited-edition Air Jordan Retro collaborations. The A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 “White Burgundy Crush” celebrates the Atlanta-based streetwear boutique’s 10th birthday with an elegant vintage-inspired design overhaul.
Following an impressive sneaker portfolio in 2022 that includes the Air Jordan 12, AJ5, and Jordan Air Ship, the James Whitner-led brand maintains a solid momentum coming in 2024 with its second AJ3 collaboration. This special-edition colourway sports a clean white leather base, accentuated with AMM’s signature burgundy hue encompassing the suede overlays on the toe, eyestay, collar, and rear sidewalls. Pre-aged sail white tones envelop the lace holes, laces, and TPU heel panel. Co-branded logos adorn the tongue, while classic Nike Air sits on the heel. The PU midsole divides burgundy hues on the upper portion, followed by sail white pigments on the lower tier. A visible Nike Air Max unit sits on the heel for extra cushioning. The dark-based rubber outsole completes the premium makeover of this Tinker Hatfield gem.
Air Jordan 4 Retro “Bred” Reimagined
The Air Jordan 4 Retro “Bred” Reimagined was last seen in the summer of 2019 for the 30th anniversary of the iconic silhouette. The colorway is set to return in 2024 as the Air Jordan 4 is poised to have a memorable 35th anniversary as the “Bred” AJ4 will receive the “Reimagined” treatment.
Following the release of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Chicago “Lost and Found” in 2022, the Air Jordan 3 “White Cement” in 2023, the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Royal” Reimagined in 2024, the series will continue with the black, red, and grey pair worn famously by his Airness against the Cleveland Cavaliers with MJ’s signature “The Shot” over Craig Ehlo in the playoffs. The 2024 edition of the Air Jordan 4 “Bred” will be introduced with a leather upper instead of its signature nubuck build.
Air Jordan 3 OG 'Black 'Cement'
Jordan Brand adds another huge hitter to its Reimagined roster with the Air Jordan 3 OG “Black Cement” 2024. Successfully dropping the “White Cement Reimagined” back in 2023, followed by the AJ4 "Bred Reimagined", the updated storytelling is on a real hot streak (forgetting the Jordan 1 "Royal Reimagined" of course).
For mutiple reasons, many sneakerheads put the “Black Cement” AJ3 on their Mount Rushmore of trainers. Steeped in history and also the first Jordan shoe in the series to adopt Nike Air, there is no surprise why the shoe has been retro'd more than five times since it debuted in '88.
This Reimagined "Black Cement" 2024 version is the closest to the original since the 1994 retro, making this arguably the best edition for thirty years. An updated tooling, lighter elephant print and even the tongue has managed been given a rework. Unlike the AJ3 "White Cement" from last year, the box has not been given a scuffed or preaged finish, sticking to the OG box the AJ3 is expected to come with.
J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 'Rio'
Following his Medellin-inspired Air Jordan 3 collaboration, renowned Colombian singer, songwriter, and music producer J Balvin introduces a second AJ3 colourway. This rendition honours his firstborn son Rio, who was born in 2021. The J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 “Rio” boasts a stealthy black-on-black makeover highlighted by sunset–inspired orange gradients.
After dropping the “White Cement Reimagined”, the Air Jordan 3 introduces new colourways of the iconic Tinker Hatfield masterpiece. This collaborative Air Jordan 3 colourway marks the fourth joint venture between J Balvin and Jordan Brand, flaunting more minimalist aesthetics after the rainbow tie-dye Air Jordan 1 High and cloudy Air Jordan 2 makeover. Rich yet subtle storytelling details embellish this rendition, flaunting a black leather upper that hides the AJ3’s signature elephant print overlays. Orange accents adorn the lace holes, complementing the Jumpman logo on the tongue and the semi-translucent heel panel. Sunset-inspired gradients cover the heel PU midsole, displaying a similar setup as the J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 “Medellín Sunset”. The grey semi-translucent outsole completes this collaborative Air Jordan 3 colourway.

“We recently attended Sneaker Crawl with @Jumpmanjournals and GG3x3. My Son and his friends are Basketball fanatics rather than sneakerheads, and we didn't know what to expect, but the event turned out to be fresh, fun and filled with warmth via the sunshine and the friendly, inviting nature of the hosts. There was something for everyone as we strutted along the glorious Southbank, chatting, tunes blaring to raise money for a fantastic cause founded from an endearing love of a lost friend. Thanks, Sneaker Crawl, for a great day. There was lots of information and encouragement for the kids and great freebies. The boys love the T-shirts so much that I have been washing them ever since. I look forward to the next one.”

AirMax Day 2022 - JMJ In the Streets!
Now it’s been said that next to the Air Jordan line, the Air max line is the most significant piece of sneaker culture that there is, end of! Straight away I'm drawn to adidas’s history, the pioneers if you think about it, the first to set sail. But others had entered the seas. 1892 – Keds – First sneakers ever produced. By 1917 sneakers began to be mass produced and actually got the nickname sneakers because they were so quiet. (Kinda creepy if you think about the times, Jokes!) 1923 – Converse entered the seas and Chuck Taylor’s became the best selling basketball shoe and sneakers were here to stay. 1924 – Adi Dassler (Boss name by the way) created a sneaker named after himself adidas and the brand became the most popular athletic shoe in the world. His brother Rudi starts his own brand Puma, you might have heard of them. adidas was the brand that took it to another level early days and that has to be recognised. But we’re here today to talk about the Swoosh! That little engine that could, that little upstart that went on to change the sneaker world, and by changing the game pumped life into all the brands they were up against, and it all started with Air Max. With science they aimed to revolutionise our sneaker experience in a way never done before. “Nike Air technology consists of pressurised air inside a tough yet flexible bag and provides more flexibility and spring without compromising structure. The Air-Sole units maintain their given form with elasticity, lower impact and keep the shoe snug and lightweight.” – Nike 1978 – Nike Air Tailwind were the first sneakers to use Air cushioning technology, introduced by former NASA engineer Frank Rudy, or as he’s known around JMJ headquarters ‘Rude Bwoy Frank’. ‘One giant step for Nike’ 1987 – OK now it gets emotional! It’s Thursday 26th March 1987, I want to say it was a summer’s day, and I'm sure it was somewhere but in London it was freezing as I remember it. (Plus I googled it) Introducing ‘The Architect’ Tinker Hatfield, let the games begin! Brought In at a make or break time for Nike, and it’s fair to say he saved Nike with what he delivered. Air Max 1s, one of the greatest shoes ever! It all starts here, the vibe, the respect, the mystique all starts with the Air Max 1s, which by the way still holds its own with all newcomers to the throne. I’m sure most of you know but if you don’t, i’m an Air Max 1 bubblehead from nineteen longtime and although more recent projects have drafted me to other leagues in the sneaker world. Air Max 1s were the first sneakers that let me see into their sole and thereby, somehow affected mine. My relationship with Air Max began when I bought the Red Air Max 1s pretty much on release day at Olympus Sports, Tottenham Court Road. I’m sure I went on my jacks, remembering it being a quiet experience and that wouldn’t have been possible with the boys to be honest. (We used to have some unbelievable group shopping trips, us lot released on West End with money in our pockets, we got vibes, we got the chat, it’s always going to be eventful) But on this occasion I was on a stealth flex. Kinda mad thinking how easy it was to get them when you think about how hype it is today, people are going mad for average kicks based on the hyped noise around them. Anyway, I’ve got my Air max 1s, I’m on the ends, I’m sure a couple of my boys had them, can’t really remember who, hahahaha! So more about how they felt on my feet, like nothing before, end of really. Walking on Air for real, these trainers were the ideal product for Nike to take over the world with. I didn’t walk on anything else for a while, but the thing about our ends is we are always looking for that next thing and if it’s a different brand, Ewings, Reebok or Avia for example, it doesn't matter. We were not loyal to any brands like that, still ain’t really, if we thought something would work we would try it on for size, only the fly shit stuck around and Air Max 1s hasn’t ever left the arena as one the all-time heavyweight champions! Of course amongst all of the above adidas was doing their thing, and mainly with the Zx Range. On my manor ZX was killin it, KILLIN IT! In the Earnerton, gwan money mad dayz, the uniform included a pair of Zx, preferably 730s, 930s or Questar In the early days. Then later the royal family, Zx 7000s, 8000s and ok you can include 9000s to complete the set but it was all about the first two for me. Yeah heavy weighter no doubt. But we are here today to talk about the Max, it’s AIR MAX WEEK and the Air Max 1s came along back In 1987 and shocked the world, it wasn’t a straight away thing, people saw them on other people and said Oi Oi! Let me check those out, they tried them on and that was it! (and of course Nike’s groundbreaking marketing campaigns didn’t do them any harm) For me Air Max, especially Air Max 1s capture the past and the future In one silhouette, and for that reason they will live on forever.
JMJ Is Passionate about... 'Social Justice' with Patriche Bentick
Jumpman Journals presents a new series of videos entitled 'JMJ Is Passionate about' In which we discuss topics that we here at the JMJ headquarters feel very Passionate about. In this first episode we discuss Social Justice with a well known sneakerhead, child Social worker, writer and public speaker Patriche Bentick. Patriche Is very active and plays a huge part In raising awareness around social justice, she sits on the board of The British Association of Social Workers and travels all over the UK to support and advise on social justice issues. Patriche's passion for social justice started at an early age, growing up in London and witnessing poverty within minority families. This gave her a drive to make a change and led her to take a personal development course at age of eighteen. It was at this time Patriche realised this type of work was a natural fit and began her crusade to make a social change, starting from the front lines. Patriche has done some amazing work in bringing families together and continues to work tirelessly to make a change and expel the stigma associated with support. Sneakers are a huge part of Patriche's identity and play a role in allowing her to express herself and connect with young people. Her sneakers help to build trust, the young people she comes into contact with feel like they can relate to her and that initial bond is formed. Your sneakers do actually make human connects and this Is a major part of what we do at the Jumpman Journals. Patriche Is a very passionate person that works hard for social change and this is definitely an area Jumpman Journals Is Passionate about. "All suffering Is everyone's suffering" Patriche Bentick

London Basketball Association
BASKETBALL IS THE GAME, SOCIAL CHANGE IS THE MISSION.
The London Basketball Association is a registered charity, established in July 2012.
As a charity organisation, our mission is to inspire Londoners to develop a habit of getting involved with the conglomerate of basketball in order to benefit from it on many different levels.
To achieve this, we work to enhance the infrastructure of basketball, making the sport easily accessible to the masses.
We see sport as an integral part of the society, a practice that brings communities together, creates employment and growth opportunities within those communities, as well as helps to maintain the healthy lifestyle.
We recognised the potential for basketball to become a gateway to solving key social issues such as obesity, physical and mental health issues, substance misuse, unemployment, crime and postcode wars.
LBA brings positive social change to the most disadvantaged communities in London through the sport of basketball.
Black Prince Trust
In 2014 The Black Prince Trust (BPT) took on overall management of the Black Prince Trust Community Hub, aiming to firmly place it in the heart of the community where we are based with accessible, inclusive and impactful programmes using sport and physical activity to deliver positive social outcomes.
BPT manages and maintains the facility, with two commercial agreements helping to make the site financially sustainable: with Power League, who run the outdoor football facility; and Foundry who run a private members gym within the Sports Hall. Both agreements include some community provision: Power League provide heavily discounted rates for charities, schools and other BPT partners until 5pm on weekdays; while Foundry deliver a free daily 1 hour fitness class open to anyone in the community engaging 75 people per week in their gym space.
The BPT Hub is also home to some of our charity partners: Fight 4 Change, Street Soccer London and 3 Pillars are all based on site and deliver free community programmes; while Share Community run a training kitchen for adults with disabilities and a community meal distribution scheme from our café and kitchen space. Nike and Jordan are hugely valued partners across BPT basketball programmes, with long-term investment in facilities and community delivery establishing BPT as one of the premier basketball facilities in the country.
BPT and its partners currently deliver more than 70 weekly community sessions that are openly accessible to the community, the majority of which are completely free of charge to users, with heavily discounted facility hire rates available to partners, not-for-profit organisations and schools. When not reserved for community use, facilities are available for private hire at our standard rate – all revenues generated from private hire helps to support the costs of running the Hub and subsidises low cost facility hire rates for community partners.
GG3X3
The GG3x3 is the UK's largest non-profit (3x3) basketball platform designed to make basketball accessible to all, no matter a person’s race, age, gender, shape or ability.
We champion game of 3x3 basketball and aim to inspire people to play, have fun and connect through a series of community-led initiatives. We train young ballers via our kids clinics and camps, run multi-ability charity tournaments and carry out random acts of kindness in the community.
The GG3x3 began as a one-day one-off charity tournament event in 2017 to commemorate basketball lover, George Goldstone. He was not only a loving son, devoted husband and loyal friend, but a passionate baller in his spare time.
Shortly after his marriage, George was diagnosed with terminal cancer aged 32. Despite his battle he sadly passed away in 2016.
To honour his life and passion for the game, his friend and teammate Martin Dyan created the GG3x3 charity tournament to celebrate George, raise money for charity, support and lead local community projects.
To date the GG3x3 has hosted over 800 ballers in 3x3 tournaments, helped train over 1,000 young ballers, installed 80 nets (and counting), helped regenerate basketball courts and secured over £16,000 for cancer charities.
