SNEAKER REVIEW - NIKE AIR 3 HYPERBLUE

This is another retro colorway of what was once known as the Air Garnett 3.  Of course, with KG no longer signed to Nike, these had to undergo a name change and some tweaks in the detailing in order to be rereleased.  Regardless what they are called, the signature gradient gives these a quality that definitely turns heads.

MATERIALS: The white parts are leather, blue parts are mesh, and the black parts are suede/nubuck. The midsole is white and black with blue showing through the air unit. The swoosh on the outside rear is metallic, and the tongue features 3M horizontal stripes and a blue swoosh. These come with black laces.
FEATURES: These have no special features for a pair of Air 3's.
STREET VALUE: retail
MY NOTES ON ACTUALLY WEARING THESE: These fit true to size and are very comfortable, with noticeable padding under the ball of the foot. These should not crease very badly and should clean up pretty easily as the black areas will disguise dirt and the white areas will wipe clean. I'd avoid getting the mesh dirty if at all possible though.  These work well with shorts in summer, but can really be worn year round thanks to the darker accents on the shoe.
