After a 10-year wait (excluding the 2009 European exclusive drop), the "True Blue" Air Jordan Retro 3 makes its long-awaited return to retail tonight. One of the original Air Jordan III colorways released in 1988, the "True Blues" flew under the radar for several years before being re-released by the Jordan Brand and worn on the court by Washington Wizards era Michael Jordan in 2001. Since then, the shoe has been one of the most sought after in the sneaker collecting hobby and sits atop the "Holy Grail" list of many enthusiasts.

Retailing for $150, you'll be able to pick up the "True Blue" Air Jordan Retro 3 at retailers like Eastbay, Foot Locker, Footaction and NikeStore. The release is general, but the popularity of the shoe should get it off of shelves in a hurry. Make sure you act fast.
