Nike released the original Air Jordan 3 in 1988. It was Hatfield's first collaboration with Nike and began a partnership between the shoe designer and the sneaker brand that not only lasted decades, but helped cement the Air Jordan legacy.
Hatfield discussed the creation of the Air Jordan 3 in an interview with Hypebeast in 2018. “We made some mockups and I put clothes on it to go with it,” he recalled of Jordan. “Michael was not in a good mood when we arrived. He said, “Show me what you got.” I had the shoe there under a black cloth, like a shroud. You couldn't really see what the plan was, but he had already seen some of the things in the previous two meetings.”
“When I got the AJ3, Michael grabbed it from me and started looking at it. Within minutes she was smiling and asking all kinds of questions,” he continued. “Within 20 minutes, the meeting was almost over.”
Michael Jordan wore the Air Jordan Retro 3 in the 1988 Slam Dunk Contest, which he won against Dominique Wilkins.
