Jordan Brand has finally unveiled the 28th shoe in the Air Jordan franchise. The Air Jordan XX8 will be available in Houston only on February 15, 2013 followed by a nationwide release on February 16 for $250.
“With the ongoing evolution of the game shoe, I encourage our entire function to push the boundary when it comes to design, technology and performance,” said Tinker Hatfield. “The AIR JORDAN XX8 shoe really is basketball’s answer to the concept car.”
Featuring a high-performance, stretch-synthetic shroud that provides a sleek exterior, while a molded external heel counter is made of carbon fiber for lightweight support. A multidirectional outsole pattern provides excellent traction and durability for the court. Schoeller mesh, a Swiss fabric used in premium motorcycling jackets, is used in the shroud that encompasses the AIR JORDAN XX8 to provide an extra layer of support, stability and style for the athlete.
