This CP3.III “Mardis Gras” will hit in white/sun stone/varsity purple, a festive mix but not one you’re used to seeing on your kicks. You may be thinking “these aren’t Hornets colors, this isn’t a standard normal black/red or white/blue blocking,” but this CP3.III is displaying traditional colors of the Mardis Gras festival (purple and gold) which ties back to Chris Paul’s NBA squad based in New Orleans. The multi-colored speckling on the purple midsole even recalls confetti you might see in a parade down Bourbon Street.

Other signature details include the lasered “CP” coat of arms with fleur-de-lis on the upper, and the honeycomb pattern of the herringbone outsole referencing the Hornets. The honeycomb appears again in the pattern of perforations on the lining of the tongue. For more shots, and a wallpaper of the intricate “CP” coat of arms check the Gallery.
