Air Jordan 3 Retro OG 'Black Cement'
Dark. Powerful. Untouchable.
The Air Jordan 3 Retro OG 'Black Cement' is the AJ3 at its most commanding — a colorway that takes Tinker Hatfield's revolutionary 1988 silhouette and cloaks it in a dark, aggressive palette that has defined sneaker culture for over three decades. Black leather, cement grey elephant print, and fire red accents on the AJ3's iconic architecture create one of the most powerful and celebrated colorways in Jordan Brand history. The OG retro delivers it exactly as it was.
Black Cement: The AJ3's Most Commanding Colorway
While the White Cement AJ3 is the colorway that defined the Slam Dunk Contest, the Black Cement is the one that defined the streets. Dark, intense, and impossible to ignore, the Black Cement AJ3 channels the same competitive fury that drove Michael Jordan to six championships — a shoe that takes no prisoners and makes no apologies. The elephant print overlays in cement grey against the black leather base create a textural depth that rewards every second of attention, while the fire red accents hit like punctuation marks on a sentence that was already perfect.

How to Style It
Black and cement is one of the most powerful and versatile combinations in Jordan Brand history. Go full black for a stealth monochromatic look that lets the cement and red details emerge with maximum impact, pair it with white for a classic Jordan high-contrast outfit, or let the fire red accents inspire bold tonal red layers that honor the shoe's full palette. The Black Cement AJ3 OG needs no introduction — and neither does the person wearing it.
Black. Cement. Fire Red. The AJ3 at its most powerful. OG spec. Forever.
