Jordan Brand plans to release a “Vivid Purple” Jordan 3 colourway early in this year. This vibrant colour palette, which many fans have compared to the renowned DC villain Joker, is definitely one of the wildest kids’ releases we’ve seen in a while.

A Closer Look At The Sneaker
This lively AJ3 design borrows from the Clown Prince of Crime’s distinctive colours. The shoe has a clean white leather base with bursts of Vivid Purple on the heel tab, collar, lining, laces, and elephant print panels to represent his face paint and outfit. Vapour Green then touches the Jumpman insignia at the heel and the bottom of the outsole, mimicking the character’s trademark hair. Additional elements include the midsole’s subtle Guava Ice and Sail colours, which contrast with the striking purple and green accents.
What We Like About The Sneakers
Although there’s no official DC branding or graphics, it’s hard not to draw comparisons to the iconic Batman villain when looking at these sneakers. The colour scheme and placement of the purple and green accents perfectly capture the essence of the character. It’s only a pity that these will only be available in kids’ sizes.
Air Jordan 3 “Vivid Purple” Release Details
The release date for this Joker-inspired AJ3 is March 1, 2025. Sneakerheads can purchase a pair in grade school sizes for $150 USD at Nike.com and select Jordan stores.
