Durability seems great. The style is versatile – you can dress 'em up or down. And that 'Nike Air' branding on the back is a huge win for purists. It's a faithful, yet "improved", retro of a legendary sneaker. Who should maybe pass? If you need plush, all-day comfort, look at something with more modern cushioning. Also, if you prefer minimalist designs, the elephant print and multiple panels on the Air Jordan 3 might be too busy for your taste. And for pure performance basketball? Obviously, this isn't it. It's a lifestyle icon, not a court shoe. Alright, so I just got the Air Jordan Retro 3 'White Cement Reimagined' in hand. First off, the box is classic. The shoe itself? The shape is "so" much better than some recent retros. That 'Nike Air' on the back heel is just "chef's kiss". The leather feels decent, not amazing, but the cracked elephant print is done really well here. For around $210 USD, the presentation is solid. Let's talk on-feet. I laced up these Air Jordan Retro 3s, and the comfort is... good, not great. It's a retro, remember? The air unit in the heel is noticeable, providing decent cushioning for casual wear. The fit is true to size for me, with a secure wrap around the midfoot. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel the solid construction.
