Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” Is Set to Return in Fall 2026 After a Decade Away

The wait is almost over. After ten years on the sidelines, the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” is lacing up for a comeback in Fall 2026, and sneakerheads are already circling the calendar. First hitting shelves in 1988, the True Blue quickly became a standout. And not because it matched Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls uniform (it didn’t), but because MJ wore them anyway. He even pulled them out for an All-Star exhibition game against Team USA that same year.

If you’ve been following the saga of this particular colorway, you know this isn’t its first encore. The True Blues reappeared in 2001, popped up in Europe in 2009, returned again in 2011, and then made waves in 2016 with what felt like the definitive retro. Why? That “Nike Air” branding on the heel finally came back. For casual fans, it might sound like a minor design tweak. For collectors, it was a sign Jordan Brand was actually listening. That move reshaped how retros of both the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4 were handled, and sneaker culture has been better for it.

The colorway itself hasn’t aged a day. You’re still getting that crisp white leather upper, cement grey elephant print, Varsity Red accents, and the bold True Blue highlights that made the shoe an outlier back in the late ’80s. Purists will point out that the shape on the 2016 retro wasn’t quite perfect compared to the original 1988 cut, but Jordan Brand has been dialing in the details lately. Just look at the 2024 “Black Cement” release, which nailed the proportions in a way that had old-school fans nodding in approval. That attention to detail gives plenty of hope that the 2026 True Blue will finally get it right.

Of course, nothing stirs up anticipation like a little mystery. Right now, there aren’t any leaked images or SKU numbers of the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” floating around. Still, reliable sources like @zsneakerheadz and Sneaker Files are reporting that the pair will drop on SNKRS and select retailers with a $220 price tag. Considering it’ll have been a full decade since anyone had a retail shot at them, you can bet the hype is already simmering.
