The transition of Air Jordan sneakers from purely performance shoes to casual hype machines is pretty fascinating. The overwhelming majority of the shoes’ universal popularity has to do with the GOAT himself. It’s like you’re wearing a piece of the Chicago’s sporting hero. That being said, it’s also got a little bit to do with design genius, as the upcoming Pantone pair show.
Released back in 1992, the Air Jordan 7 was one of the many home runs designed by Tinker Hatfield. Beyond the inspirations and details, what makes the 7 – and other models – so special is its dynamism when it comes to color schemes. You could slap on just about any aesthetic and be sure you’re getting classic. A Pantone hue is our latest look at the AJ 7, an all-over Blue that is complimented by a White midsole and outsole.
