The Air Jordan 3 Retro OG 'True Blue' was initially introduced in 1988, along with three other OG colorways. Over the years, it received multiple retro releases that deviated from the original design, such as in 2001 and 2009 (limited to Europe), and a wide retro release in 2011 to celebrate its 23rd anniversary. However, in 2016, the 'True Blue' made a comeback with the original branding and logo details seen in the 1988 version. While this particular release, known as the 'BG' version, is designed for boys sizing, it still encompasses all the iconic features of the Air Jordan 3.
