I just got the A Ma Maniere x Jordan 3, and the packaging on this shoe is one of the best I’ve seen in my years of collecting Jordans. The unboxing experience felt like I was opening a luxury handbag from Louis Vuitton. It starts with the split lid opening to reveal the A Ma Maniere monogram logo, then lifting that panel to see the shoe wrapped in a microfiber cloth.
The shoe itself looks and feels just as luxurious as the box, featuring premium black leather overlaid with violet and metallic silver accents and hairy suede around the heel cup and toe guard. The interior is lined with padded quilted satin.
It’s still early to say, but as of right now, this might be the sneaker of the year.
