Jordan Meets Federer: Presenting The NikeCourt Zoom Vapor AJ3




Tennis has been one of the most impactful providers of sport culture to Nike, with earlier releases from the 80s living as legends of the brand’s footwear catalog. With that rich history in support, the brand has launched NikeCourt – a new category inspired by Nike Tennis DNA that implements contemporary design to classic apparel and footwear pieces. The debut collection of NikeCourt continues with this incredible unification of greatness from two distinct courts, resulting in the limited edition NikeCourt Zoom Vapor Tour AJ3.

The sneaker combines the DNA of the Zoom Vapor Tour 9.5 with the iconic elements of the Air Jordan III, as seen by the elephant print on the toe and heel, the Jumpman tongue, and the Nike Air on the heel. The sneaker is still very much the Vapor Tour 9.5, with the Dynamic Fit and Zoom Air allowing this rebuilt sneaker to be fully wearable on the court. In fact, if you tune into Federer’s first match of the U.S. Open tonight, you’ll see the shoes on his feet.
