Katrina Air Jordan 3

In March 2017, rumors circulated about a release of the "Katrina" Air Jordan 3, a red-based colorway that's never hit retail before. Now, the same leaker who initially put out info about its supposed release this year is saying the shoe won't arrive until summer 2018.

Leaker account @zsneakerheadz posted about the shoe on Instagram on Thursday. It's unclear if the initial info about a 2017 release for this Jordan 3 was wrong or if the shoes were delayed at some point.

The "Katrina" Air Jordan 3 retro is said to be using "Nike Air" branding on the back, a detail that is usually reserved for original colorways.

Also rumored to release in 2017 is the "Black Cat" Air Jordan 3. There are no updates on the possibility of that sneaker coming this year.
