'Varsity Royal' Air Jordan 3s to Release In the U.S. Next Month
The 'Varsity Royal' Air Jordan 3 is expected to make its retail debut overseas in June 2020 followed by a stateside launch in October.
Before the rumored return of the "Cool Grey" colorway and debut of the "Midnight Navy" make-up next year, there might be another new Air Jordan 3 colorway on the way this summer.
First reported by pyleaks, a pair bearing resemblance to DJ Khaled's Friends & Family "Another One" collaboration from 2018 is in the works. While images of the retro have not yet leaked, pyleaks' mock-ups suggest a straightforward pair styled in royal blue leather with cement grey elephant print overlays. This may be the closest any of us get to the coveted Khaled collab, which sells for $6,000+ on the resale market.
As of now, the "Varsity Royal" Jordan 3 is expected to release on June 25 for $190. Stick with Sole Collector for a first look and release updates.
UPDATE (07/01): After releasing overseas last week, zSneakerheadz is now reporting that the "Varsity Royal" Air Jordan 3 may not drop in the U.S. until October. As of now, a release date has yet to be announced but we'll keep you updated if anything changes.
UPDATE (09/01): After months of anticipation, the "Varsity Royal" Air Jordan 3 is now slated to drop in the states on Oct. 10 according to zSneakerheadz.
