Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro "Doernbecher XIX" FZ3030-919

The Nike Air Jordan 3 Retro “Doernbecher XIX” FZ3030-919, part of the Doernbecher Freestyle XIX collection, stands out for its unique story and design. This collection, featuring six shoes, each gets its unique flair from the creative minds of young patients at the OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. The Air Jordan 3 in this lineup, designed by 14-year-old Hugo “Juice” Covarrubias Molina, is particularly notable.

Sporting colours inspired by Hugo’s favorite Seattle Seahawks, the shoe showcases a deep navy leather base. This provides a striking contrast to the green slime design that seems to cascade from the tongue and ankle, giving the shoe a dynamic and eye-catching look. The tongue further enhances the design with a subtle, glittery green finish.

Every detail of this shoe reflects careful thought and personal touches. A standout feature is the 23-carat gold-plated hang-tag, crafted into Hugo’s initials, showing his love for jewelry. The heels also carry a personal stamp with “JH” and “Juice” etched next to a translucent Jumpman, blending personal elements with iconic branding.

Adding an element of fun and surprise, the shoe includes glow-in-the-dark features, which bring an extra layer of style to its design. The finishing touch is a translucent outsole, inscribed with the phrase “It’s okay to be different,” echoing Hugo’s unique perspective and the spirit of the Doernbecher collection.

This Air Jordan 3 Retro is more than just a shoe; it’s a testament to resilience, imagination, and personal storytelling, making it a sought-after item for sneaker fans and collectors.
