FAQs

What makes the 'White Cement Reimagined' special?

This model is special because it's a faithful recreation of the 1988 Air Jordan 3, celebrating its 35th anniversary with accurate specs and a vintage aesthetic, including off-white midsole and heel tab details.

Is this shoe suitable for basketball?

While inspired by a basketball shoe, the 'Reimagined' series focuses on aesthetics and comfort for lifestyle wear. For rigorous athletic performance, dedicated performance basketball shoes are recommended.

How should I clean the leather upper?

Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a specialized leather cleaner can be used sparingly. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the significance of the Nike Air branding?

The Nike Air branding on the heel and tongue is a nod to the original 1988 release, which featured this branding before the Jumpman logo became dominant on subsequent retros.

Are these true to the original 1988 release?

Yes, the 'White Cement Reimagined' is designed to be true to the original 1988 specifications, including the shape, materials, and branding elements like the Nike Air heel tab.

How does the off-white midsole contribute to the design?

The off-white midsole and heel tab are intentional design choices to create a vintage, aged look, mimicking how the original pair might appear after decades of wear and storage.

What size is this specific guide entry for?

This guide entry primarily refers to the Air Jordan 3 Retro 'White Cement Reimagined' in Men's UK Size 13.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-tightening laces and store shoes with shoe trees or stuffed paper.

Dirt on elephant print

Gently clean elephant print with a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive scrubbing.

Discoloration of midsole/heel tab

The off-white color is intentional for a vintage look. If further yellowing occurs due to age or material, it's a natural aging process for aged-look materials.
