Despite not having the elephant print, the Air Jordan 1 Mid "Cement Grey" pays homage to the legendary Air Jordan 3 from 1988. The shoe's Swoosh, surrounding panels, and toe cap are all in the hue "Cement Grey." All black covers the overlays and laces. The heel collar and sole, which combine a white midsole with a deep red hue, give contrast. The Jumpman emblem, which is the same shade of red as the heel collar and outsole, is featured on the tongue.
