When you have a sneaker named after you then you can safely say you’ve reached a certain stature in the sporting world. Or could that be the other way around?

The Jordan CP3.III Samples just goes on to confirm that Chris Paul is already considered one of the NBA’s biggest stars. His sneakers are even making it good and are considered among the top performers in basketball shoes.

Chris Paul is one of the NBA’s youngest players and one of the few Team Jordan members who already have a shoe in his name. The Jordan CP3.III Samples may look like Kobe’s Zoom IV but there are slight differences.

The Jordan CP3.III Samples come in two colorways and so far both look good enough to collect. The one in black upper with white heel and midsole is accented by the blue outsole and heel tag.

The version in white upper is accented by black just a little up on the midsole and the heel tab but has a red outsole. Both sneakers have the same flower-looking design on the sides.

The Jordan CP3.III Samples will drop in your favorite retail stores at a price of $118 so watch out for them.
