The Cardinal Red Jordan 3 is a classic take on the Jordan 3. With a similar look to the Fire Red Jordan 3, this style uses a less bold red and keeps the legacy elephant print on the shoes, and the leather.
The shoe originally came out on February 19th, 2022 and I got a pair when they came out for $200. I liked the look of the pictures, but I have seen fire reds before, and I liked that shade of red much better than the Cardinal Red shade. This color is what stands out on the shoe, and the Fire Red does a better job.

These shoes would look good with anything with a slight sense of red or some gold, but not dark clothes. I think the laces look the best when they are white, as the red color on the laces would create too much red.
Overall, I do not think there will be much market for these. The value to sell will stay at the same as the retail price, making this a more budget-friendly buy. I will keep these in my collection and hope that I can find someone who will be interested in wearing them to sell for around $220.
