The White Cement Air Jordan 3 "88" with the Nike Air on the heel was one of the most anticipated sneaker releases of all time. By the time that 2013 came around, it seemed like every Air Jordan collector was tired of seeing the Jumpman on the heel o Jordan 3s and ready for the return of the Nike Air Branding. Of course, the Nike Air Jordan III is iconic for many reasons. It was one of the first sneakers to feature the famed Elephant Print. Back in 1988, the Air Jordan III was presented to Michael Jordan by Tinker Hatfield and was an important piece in convincing MJ to stay with Nike. The White Cement AJ3 became legendary thanks to Michael Jordan winning the NBA Slam Dunk Contest in them by jumping from the free throw line. The dunk is one of the most famous Michael Jordan images of all time. 25 years later, down to the minute, Nike celebrated the most iconic slam dunk of all time by releasing the White Cement Jordan III "88" complete with Nike Air on the heel. The Air Jordan Retro 3 88 White Cement released for $200 at 4:51 EST on February 6th, 2013. It became one of the most talked about releases of all time and sold out instantly. A month later the Retro 3 88 released in Asia and subsequently restocked at various retailers a number of times over the 18 months that followed but remains a highly sought after sneaker.

Imo the leather quality is way better than the majority of other Jordan's. No QC issues either, which is rare for Nike/Jordan. I think these are some of the best Jordan's in the past few years. Especially for being a GR. Leather texture and elephant print matches. Maybe I just got lucky with a good pair but these are flawless đź‘Ś.

Comfortable with the sneaker protectors in them. This is my second pair of J3 I just got the Navy Retros . Anyway I’m a fan of them because of style and they look cool. I went to pick up my gf son from school and the kids were at Awe over them. The only problem I have is the Jordan guy pealed off the inside soul of the sneaker. I can’t wait to get a pair of J 4 next

People slept on these, material, craftsmanship is 100% solid. Colorway is on point and specially the story of this specific pair. Thank you Nike/Jordan Brand for bringing these bad boys back! Being an OG head like me, We really appreciate every pair that has story behind it not just what all these “New sneakerheads” trying to hype. Well appreciated Nike Team!

Couldn’t pass up on the Jordan 3 “Fear”. The different material and colorway use are my favorite elements of the shoe. Overall quality was good. Not spectacular as it had some glue stains here and there, and small paint chips but nothing too crazy. As per sizing, dunks and Jordan 1s I wear 9.5 with room to give 100% of the time, but these Jordan 3 Fears were too tight at 9.5 and I wouldn’t consider my foot as THAT wide. I tried breaking them in as much but my toes crunched and they were too narrow. It became painful so I moved up to a size 10. As a 10, they fit so much better length and width wise, but slight heel slip. Sticking with the size 10s as I love this pair, but sure wish they fit as “TTS” as so many reviews and videos say they do. Nike please make the toe ... MoreCouldn’t pass up on the Jordan 3 “Fear”.

Honestly wasn’t my favorite purchase of many purchases of Jordans over my 35 years of loving the brand and the Goat. These sneakers just didn’t do it for me and I’ll politely leave it at that because I am still batting 99% and will just look forward to the chance to purchase a different pair. Nothing but love and respect for the goat and his awesome sneaks.
Definitely a new favorite of mine!True to size! Great leather! And definitely a lighter weight than most 3s’. The color way for me is exactly what I was missing. I even like the shoe lace length. Sometime it gets weird with a sz 12. A great daily sneaker! Can be dressed Up or Down. I’ll be getting a 2nd pair for sure!
First pair of 3’s in long long time, couldn’t beat the price with the treat yourself promo. There soooooo clean just love staring at them. The elephant print is f-ing gorgeous, super soft leather that will look better and better the more you wear. I’m very calculated with what size I go with, I have a wide “hobbit” foot. Like I said haven’t had 3’s in forever, so I went half size up. I highly recommend if have wide foot, true to size would’ve been a little to snug
Absolutely Love this shoe. Not sure what the material is on the upper but tumbled leather. suede, or Nubuk would be a definite updgrade in overall look and quality of the shoe. I am happy with the look of the shoe and the quality in manufacturing. No manufacturing defects on MY pair. A great looking shoe! This neutral color way goes well with just about any fit you decide to rock with these kicks. DEFINITELY AN UNDERRATED SHOE which is great for someone like me that doesn’t use Bots to cop shoes.
These are great. No clue why they're sitting but I'm good with it, might cop a 2nd pair. The leather is soft and supple, the bold colorway is clean and contrasts nicely, elephant print is done right (unlike those racer blues, ugh). The soft, plush felted tongue & collar is a nice touch and pleasant surprise in-hand & on-foot. AJ 3s, 4s, & 1s are my faves, and these do not disappoint. Nice to have some new dark 3s to counter the recent fire reds & wizards (2022 or 2023, both outstanding releases). Fit is TTS for 3s.
Won these on a bid. Look exactly as they appear from the uploaded pictures. Getting them cleaned up now and look forward to rocking them!
