Nike brings back one of the most famous basketball shoes ever made. The Air Jordan 8 Aqua returns after more than 30 years away from stores. Sneaker fans have waited decades to buy these legendary kicks again. The company just showed off the first pictures of the retro release. Basketball shoe collectors are already marking their calendars for the launch date.
Michael Jordan wore these colorful sneakers during the 1993 NBA All-Star Game. He scored 30 points that night and made the shoes instantly popular. The bold design features black leather mixed with bright aqua blue and purple colors. These kicks became some of the most recognizable shoes Jordan ever wore on the court. Fans have considered them must-have items ever since that famous game.
The new version keeps all the original details that made people love them. Criss-cross straps wrap around the shoe just like the 1993 model. A special patch sits on the tongue area and colorful graphics cover the bottom section. Black leather covers most of the upper part and grey suede adds texture to certain areas. Teal blue appears on the bottom sole and small holes decorate the heel tabs.
Sneaker stores will start selling the Air Jordan 8 Aqua on July 19th. Each pair costs $215 according to Sneaker Bar Detroit. Both longtime fans and new collectors want to grab these historic basketball shoes. The shoes offer comfort through a visible air cushion system built into the heel area. Classic Jordan branding appears on the straps and inside lining sections.
