The Air Jordan 3 Retro Explorer XX 'Tropical Twist' is a women's-exclusive, reimagined take on the classic Air Jordan 3. The shoe features an upper constructed from robust materials, typically including canvas or a canvas-like textile in Vast Grey and Atmosphere Grey. The vibrant Tropical Twist (a teal/aqua color) serves as the main accent, appearing on key areas like the heel pull tab, the large heel badge, and branding. The shoe is distinguished by its unique Explorer XX modifications, which include an extended bootie-like collar and an adjustable, webbing-style strap system over the midfoot and ankle area, replacing the traditional eyelets and giving it a more utilitarian, boot-like appearance. The traditional elephant print is replaced with a more subtle, textured paneling.
