Featured Shoes: Jordan CP3.III Mardi Gras Sneakers

The term Mardi Gras or carnival season refers to events of the carnival celebrations, and in some US cities it is now called “Fat Tuesday”. During these festivities people wearing colorful body paints and costumes parade on the streets.In relation with this, the next Jordan sneaker took the same theme and applied it on the CP3.III. The Mardi Gras treatment mainly features the Black suede base with detailed laser-etched graphics from the side panel to the ankle area while it uses Black premium leather on the bottom part and heel. It is an interesting facet to have Varsity Purple accent in the form of lace loops, Jumpman logo on the heel, heel tab, and speckled midsole. The detail never ends with that since another vivid color creates good accent which is the Orion Blue tint. This comes visible on the Jumpman logo on the toe box, shoe laces, inner liner, contrast stitching, and outsole. In addition, Maize hint is also present on the tongue and details on the outsole. While the Mardi Gras 2009 celebration took place in New Orleans, the Jordan CP3.III also features the state’s area code at the tip of each shoe lace. If you are fond of the Mardi Gras, then this shoe is just right for you. Wait until it hits the shelf on February.
