Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Black Cement

10 years ago, Elephant Print was a popular topic among Jordan-based sneaker circles. OG Jordan heads commonly highlighted this coveted characteristic while showcasing their Air Jordan 3 “True Blue” purchases, often lamenting the lack of “Nike Air” on the heel tab. The new Air Jordan 1 Low draped in elephant print may have caused a split in opinions a decade ago, but now, in 2023, we wonder if public tastes have changed.

The sneaker's soft nubuck adorns the toe box and side walls, featuring cement grey accents on the Swoosh and outsole below. To give it a contemporary makeover, the elephant print panels have been presented in a lighter mix of greys, with a renewed aesthetic that forgoes the familiar black abstract lines. As usual with an Air Jordan 1 Low, the heel tab sports an embroidered Wings emblem, camouflaged amidst the print pattern. The shoe’s standard sole is visible with its fresh star count and tread pattern.
