It’s time for festivals and one of the most colorful festivals we have today is the Mardi Gras. The Air Jordan CP3.III - Mardi Gras sneaker reminds us of the festival, all right, even if it is clad only in an almost tonal color scheme.

The Air Jordan CP3.III - Mardi Gras sneaker is the sibling of the Air Jordan CP3.III – All Star 2010 sneaker worn by Chris Paul. But while the same sneaker was worn by a celebrity, this sneaker version is a celebrity in its own right with its reference to the Mardi Gras.

The sneaker is definitely a must-wear even for Chris Paul if he wants to celebrate with the Mardi Gras regulars. But with the sneaker’s very bright colors, it is best that CP wears it only off court to avoid creating much distraction in the courtside.

The Air Jordan CP3.III - Mardi Gras sneaker is seen here in two colorways of purple and green. Just alternate the two colors and you get one or the other model. The one we like best is the one in a green leather upper, with a darker green on the side panels which comes with an intricate design. This comes with yellow contrasting stitches all over.
