Following a “Cool Grey” rendition, Nike continues to launch classic colorways of the Air Jordan 8 with the all-new “Cement” variant. Taking inspiration from the Air Jordan 4 model, the high-top retro sneaker is adorned in tonal black, “Gym Red,” and “Wolf Grey” tones. In regards to its construction, the shoe’s upper is predominantly wrapped in premium leather alongside suede details on the dual straps, underlay, and toe box. The most striking detail goes to the embroidered “1993” text on the back tabs as an homage to Michael Jordan’s championship win for the Chicago Bulls against the Phoenix Suns.

Check out the Air Jordan 8 “Cement” rendition above and expect an official release on September 16 at select Jordan Brand stores and Nike’s official website. Each pair will set you back a cool $190 USD.
