IN PHOTOS: DJ Khaled rocks Air Jordan 3 retro as he links up with Travis Scott for studio session

In 1988, Air Jordan 3 revolutionized the world of basketball sneakers with its design and player-friendly support. It still remains one of the most sought-after sneakers among sneaker enthusiasts. Recently, it was DJ Khaled who was seen flaunting AJ3 when he met fellow rapper Travis Scott.

From Khaled’s IG post, it was apparent that the rappers were working on the release of their album. Khaled flaunted the Brown x Black x White Jordan 3 retro colorways. Khaled is a big basketball fan and this is not the first time that he has flaunted a legendary signature sneaker.

Jordan 3 was designed by the legendary designer Tinker Hatfield in 1988 that revolutionized how basketball sneakers are made. Introducing the Air-Sole unit, Hatfield put air cushioning on the heel for the comfort of the player.

Khaled has an undying love for Jordan sneakers, and his dream came true when he collaborated with the Jordan Brand to add to his "We The Best" collection.

Air Jordan 5 x DJ Khaled's “Crimson Bliss” and “Sail” come in pastel and metallic silver colorways, respectively. The Jordan Brand released the shoe in November 2022.
