Product Information

Full details

The Air Jordan 3 Retro Black Cement Gold W is designed for adult women seeking a stylish and iconic sneaker with a touch of flair. Its key benefit lies in its striking design, combining classic Jordan elements with a sophisticated metallic gold accent. A potential caveat is its limited availability and premium retail price, making it a collector's item as much as a daily wear option. This model features a black leather upper with signature elephant-designed overlays, contrasted by metallic gold details on the ankle collar, eyelets, and tongue. The red-accented tongue with a Jumpman logo and a rear emblem further enhance its distinctive look, while a white midsole and grey outsole provide a solid foundation.

Troubleshooting

Creasing on leather

Minor creasing is natural with leather. To minimize, avoid over-bending the shoe when walking and store them properly. Consider using shoe trees.

Scuffs on elephant print

Gently rub scuff marks with a soft brush or a specialized suede eraser. For persistent marks, a damp cloth with mild soap might be effective, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Discoloration of gold accents

Avoid direct contact with harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to sunlight. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners on the metallic finish.

Squeaking sound

This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. Try applying a small amount of baby powder or cornstarch under the insole or around the tongue area.
