Learn how to spot fake Nike Air Jordan 3's with this detailed 24 point step-by-step guide by goVerify.
Some Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro's come with an elephant print upper. Check that the elephant print is etched into the upper fabric and not just printed on top of it.
The Air Jordan 3 Retro has a tongue that is held in place with an elasticated strap. The elasticated strap provides the padded tongue with strong support, to improve performance and stability.
Inside label details vary depending on year, country of manufacture and style. Check the style number, usually 9 digits, matches that found on the box. Check that the tail of the Q in FABRIQUE starts inside the circle. Check for any spelling errors and that the glue area is uniform and neat. The shoe's production date will fall between the two dates indicated on the label. Tip: Do a Google image search for "Nike"+"style number" to check the colourway.
Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro's have a Nike Air Unit in the upper for added comfort and performance. Check that there is no excess glue or paint on the window.
