Detailed Look // A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 "Diffused Blue"

With Jordan Brand celebrating its 40th anniversary in 2025, it’s only natural that one of its most consistent collaborators plays a key role in the festivities. James Whitner’s A Ma Maniére imprint has established itself as a mainstay within Jordan Brand’s lineup, delivering a string of refined, elevated takes on classic silhouettes. That streak continues into 2025 with the A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue,” which has just surfaced in new detailed imagery.

The upcoming release retains many of the signature elements A Ma Maniére has become known for—most notably, a premium construction that swaps the model’s traditional elephant print for soft suede paneling. A raw finish is applied to the collar, while the interior features the quilted satin lining that has become a staple of the brand’s collaborations. A pre-aged off-white midsole adds a vintage-inspired touch, and the tongue tag introduces a new design, incorporating branding elements alongside a tribute to Michael Jordan.

While A Ma Maniére has leaned heavily on an off-white, black, and burgundy palette in past collaborations—seen across its takes on the Air Jordan 1, 3, and 12—this “Diffused Blue” colorway offers a fresh deviation. There are some passing similarities to the Air Jordan 5 “Dawn” from 2023, but the cool-toned execution helps set it apart from the brand’s previous efforts while maintaining its signature sense of luxury.

The A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 “Diffused Blue” is slated to release on March 15, 2025, with a retail price of $225.

This isn't the only AMM x Air Jordan crossover in 2025, with the two parties to link up again on the Air Jordan 4 later this year, as well as a duo of Air Jordan 6s.
