It's about that time of year to start putting together those Easter outfits, and the Air Jordan 3 "Spring Is in the Air" is absolutely worth considering to finish your look. Gathering at church with family, pastel colors, a fresh hairdo, and a new pair of sneakers really make the holiday. I love when a sneaker leans into a season without turning into a costume. The embroidered elephant print sold me — a fresh take on a classic detail I didn't know I needed until I saw it.

Air Jordan 3 'Spring Is in the Air': Release Details, Price, and Where to Buy

Is the Air Jordan 3 'Spring Is in the Air' a Good Easter Sneaker?

For spring and Easter specifically, this is one of the strongest options on the calendar right now.

And if you're already thinking past Easter, the Air Jordan 4 "Iced Carmine" drops April 23 in pink denim for the ladies who want to keep that spring energy going into summer.
