When MJ flew in his own sneakers, he wasn’t just the most stylish man on the court; he was of course, the best performer. Almost three decades have passed since His Airness first laced up his signature Nikes on the court and though different styles have come and gone, his retros remain in demand. Yet, few of them remain court-ready by today’s standards.
With all of the performance enhancements that have been developed since the widely loved OG Jordans were originally constructed, it’s hard to pass up on new, performance-oriented kicks when heading to the gym. However, with recent developments from JB, like the Air Jordan Alpha 1 and Air Jordan 2.0, it looks like we’re poised to see our favorite classics receive modern makeovers. Could more models be next? We can only hope and, as we’ve done in this feature, speculate.
Check out these 10 modernized Air Jordans we wouldn’t mind see releasing and then tell us which one you liked best.
