New Images of the 2024 Air Jordan 3 ‘Black Cement’ Reveal Classic Design with Modern Updates
The Air Jordan 3 "Black Cement," one of the most eagerly anticipated releases of 2024, has recently been revealed in new images posted by @xcsnkr.
The midsole has undergone a minor modification, while the upper retains the same black leather, elephant print, and red accents that consumers are familiar with. These classic design elements evoke a sense of nostalgia and connection to the sneaker's rich history. Like other contemporary retros, Jordan Brand utilizes the color "Sail" to imbue the posterior portion with a naturally aged, vintage aesthetic. This decision has garnered more criticism than praise in recent years, possibly due to the overuse of the "Sail" color or because it diminishes the authenticity of retro designs.
According to Sneaker News, the "Black Cement" is one of four original Jordan 3 colorways released in 1988. It has been restored numerous times over the past three decades, with the most recent and significant retro in 2018. In terms of quality, that pair, released during All-Star Weekend, is considered one of the superior Jordan shoes of the contemporary era.
According to @zsneakerheadz, the 2024 Jordan 3 "Black Cement" is anticipated to be released in substantial quantities, similar to the Jordan 4 "Bred Reimagined" and "Military Blue." Consequently, consumers interested in purchasing pairs should be able to do so quickly.
The shoes are anticipated to be available for $220 on November 23, 2024. More comprehensive coverage of the official images will be provided in the upcoming months.
