Jordan Brand is planning to launch a new Air Jordan 3 Retro "Lucky Shorts" during Spring 2025, inspired by the "UNC" shorts Michael Jordan used to wear under his Chicago Bulls uniform during his NBA games.
Although it is far too early to talk about official images, we can say that Jordan Brand is set to launch a new Air Jordan 3 Retro during Spring 2025. The new color scheme is "Summit White / Hydrogen Blue / Legend Blue / Photon Dust / Pure Platinum / Sail", but for now we do not know how the colors will be arranged on the shoe. The new limited edition Air Jordan 3 will release in a men's size run from 40 to 52.5 EU. The model will also release in a kids' size run from 35.5 to 40 EU. The "Hydrogen Blue" color scheme will release in February 2025, with a possible launch date of February 22, 2025.

The “Lucky Shorts” nickname is inspired by a pair of Jordan’s shorts. During his NBA games, he wore a pair of University of North Carolina shorts under his Chicago Bulls uniform. The tradition continued throughout his career, which is where the inspiration for this pair of Air Jordan 3 comes from.
