A Ma Maniére and Nike are collaborating for the launch of “Diffused Blue” sneakers. Nike has a range of colorways of A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3. For the upcoming release, the brands are planning to launch the diffused blue colorway for a bold look.

A Ma Maniére is a boutique based in Atlanta, founded by James Whitner. Like other A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 sneakers, these sneakers are also believed to have the same luxury feel. Its upper is made of leather with blue and black accents to combine the whole look.

The brands haven't incorporated the classic Air Jordan 3 elephant print in this one, though. The clean suede replaces it for an elegant appeal. The back of the sneakers has the logo of Nike AIR with a Ma Maniére logo on the tongue.

Both the heel tabs also have quotes: "All We Have is Each Other" and "You Need to Get Comfortable Walking Alone."

While it's expected to launch in Spring 2025, Nike is yet to announce the news of the launch.
