Jordan 3 Retro Cement Grey

This AJ3 is the third pair I've bought from this series, and I have to say, the design of this shoe is absolutely perfect—at least, it's completely satisfied me. Whether it's the materials, the color scheme, the comfort, or the visual appeal, everything about it has won me over. There are so many great things about this shoe. First, the pebbled leather has a really nice texture, and it's comfortable to wear. The natural creases look more sophisticated and are easier on the eyes compared to regular cowhide, which tends to be stiffer. It's very comfortable when walking and bending your toes. Second, the overall color scheme is versatile and minimalist, with the gray-black elephant print being the perfect finishing touch. The shoes are also easy to keep clean—just a quick wipe and they look good as new. Plus, the lining feels perfect for winter wear, providing great warmth. The only minor downside is that the sole is a bit stiff, so I'd recommend going half a size up and adding a soft insole. But overall, it's still a fantastic shoe in my book.

The shoe size is accurate, and the sole is soft and comfortable to wear. However, the area above the ankle rubs a bit. Also, when I first received them, there were some white threads sticking out from under the insole, but they weren't loose. Not sure if that's normal.
