The Jordan CP3.VIII is the eighth iteration of star Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul's signature shoe, hence its name. This shoe brings a minimalist and stylish look to a shoe designed to provide maximum performance, brutal speed and unmatched responsiveness out on the court.
The shoe is fitted with a special chassis that provides stability to aid the rapid directional moves that Paul is famed for. Its innersleeve and sock-like fit make it perfect for players with high-tempo games. The shoe's textile upper provides lightweight support, while Nike Zoom units under the forefoot offer a responsive cushioned feel.
The Jordan CP3.VIII will be launched in two colorways --black/red/white and grey/whiteblack -- at select global retailers and Jordan's official website on November 1 for a suggested retail price of $130.
