Michael Jordan took flight in 1988 by rising to the occasion during the Slam Dunk Contest in the Windy City. Crowned champion, his Airness donned the “White Cement” Air Jordan 3, cementing it within basketball history.
Since its debut, the Air Jordan 3 “White Cement” has come and gone: 1994 (Nike Air heel tab), 2003 (Jumpman heel tab), 2011 (Jumpman heel tab), and 2013 (Nike Air heel tab). The Air Jordan 3 “Free Throw Line” from 2018 is an honorable mention within the colorway’s history.
Coinciding with the 35th anniversary of the iconic dunk and the “White Cement” AJ3’s original release, Jordan Brand is bringing back the colorway with 1988 design specs with the “Reimagined” treatment as an aged midsole, and heel tab will accompany the reissue. The “White Cement” Air Jordan 3 is the latest to join the brand’s “Reimagined” series in addition to the Air Jordan 1 High “Chicago” that dropped in November.
The Air Jordan 3 “White Cement Reimagined” releases in full-family sizing on March 11th 2023 for $210 on SNKRS and select retailers. As always, our monitors and release day strategy will have members ready for drop day.

There has been a rumor flying around of 500k but there’s really no way to verify that information. What we do know is this is tracking to be the Jordan Brand’s biggest release of the year, with 2 drops occurring already. Similar to the Lost & Found Jordan 1’s, there will be plenty of pairs available, and with the right tools you should have a good chance at a W on release day.
