Fresh off of today's "Rare Air" Air Jordan 1 releases, we're now getting an official look at an upcoming Air Jordan 3 getting the "Rare Air" treatment.

The "Rare Air" iteration of Michael Jordan's third signature shoe dons a fairly simple color scheme, starting with a black leather upper. Replacing the traditional elephant print panels at the forefoot and heel are grey suede overlays that also appear on the tongue. The standout details on this iteration of the shoe are the "Rare Air" branding on the insoles and the "Nike Air" heel tabs that include a flipped logo on the right pair.

In addition, a "Rare Air" Jordan 4 and Jordan 11 are expected to be released in the coming weeks.

At the time of writing, official release info for the "Rare Air" Jordan 3 has not been announced by Jordan Brand.

UPDATE (05/15): The "Rare Air" Air Jordan 3 has officially been confirmed to drop on May 30 via SNKRS and at select retailers for $210. Grab a closer look at the upcoming style below.
