A Ma Maniére Will Release Its Third Air Jordan 3 Collaboration Next Year
2025 is shaping up to be a huge year for Michael Jordan’s third signature sneaker. In addition to the already previewed “Black Cat,” “Pure Money,” “Lucky Shorts” and “Valentine’s Day” colorways, the Air Jordan 3 will also receive a new collaboration courtesy of frequent brand partner A Ma Maniére.
The Air Jordan 3 is becoming a go-to silhouette for A Ma Maniére’s Jordan Brand collaborations, having already released in a white “Raised by Women” look and most recently, August’s black “While You Were Sleeping” colorway. Now, we’re learning that The Whitaker Group-led retailer is working on a third version of the model in “Diffused Blue.”
First-look images of the A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue” circulated on social media Friday, giving fans a low-resolution look at what to expect from the upcoming collaboration. For its third Air Jordan 3, A Ma Maniére returns to a white-based colorway, dressing the shoe in leather and adding some of the store’s now-signature details throughout.
As it has with its previous Air Jordan 3s, A Ma Maniére replaced the sneaker’s signature elephant print overlays with suede, which is colored black this time around. Cream-colored midsoles and TPU heel hits give the shoe a pre-aged aesthetic, while the collar features a deconstructed design. The standout feature of this pair, however, is its blue coloring, which fills in the heel “Nike Air” logo, the rear midsole and the lower and uppermost eyelets.
But before A Ma Maniére’s latest Air Jordan 3 launches, the retailer still has two silhouettes from its “While You Were Sleeping” collection to be released. Following the Air Jordan 3, Air Jordan 39, Air Jordan 4 and Nike Air Max 95, the sprawling collection will be bookended by the Nike Air Force 1 Low and the Converse Weapon Low, both of which are set to be released before the end of the year.
Despite the lack of detailed images at this stage, it’s clear that the A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue” is a premium pair and it will likely be accompanied by special packaging. Readers can look out for the new collaboration, which has a SKU of HV8571-100, to arrive during spring ’25 for a retail price of $225.
