Air Jordan 3 Retro Neapolitan Dark Mocha (W)

Three layers of color and elephant print leather

The Air Jordan 3 Retro Neapolitan Dark Mocha (W) is a women's edition of the 3s, where warm Dark Mocha brown sits alongside creamy white and muted pink. The color scheme references Neapolitan ice cream—three stripes arranged side-by-side—which is where the colorway gets its name. The upper is made of leather, and the model's signature elephant print pattern sits on the toe and heel. Pink returns as an accent on the collar and the sole, so from a distance the shoe reads as understated, but up close, you can see how much is going on.

Cut and fit

The 3 has a mid-height upper: it covers the ankle, but doesn't restrict it as much as high-top silhouettes. There is an Air unit in the sole, so the pair can handle a full day of walking around the city, not just the walk from the car to the cafe. The sizing for this pair starts at 36 and goes up to 44.5. The Air Jordan 3 can be a bit tighter in the midfoot than flat sneakers with a simple upper, so before ordering, measure your foot length in centimeters and compare the result with the size chart. If you have a high instep, it's worth loosening the top two pairs of eyelets so your foot slides in without resistance.

How to wear them

The brown and cream are neutral enough that the pair works well with simple outfits: wide jeans, a sand-colored tracksuit, or a black transition jacket. It's better to leave the pink to the shoes and not repeat it in your clothing, because the 3 looks best as the only accent in an outfit. If you are looking for other variations of this same silhouette, check out Air Jordan 3 shoes, and you can find a wider overview of the brand's models in Air Jordan shoes.
