Retro Air Jordan releases don’t seem to be slowing down, even if many are sitting on shelves. Today, we have a glimpse at the upcoming Air Jordan 8 Retro in Black/Gym Red and by the looks of it, it looks clean.
Retro Air Jordan 8s have seen a slew of colorways, but not something like this. We can’t say that it’s close to the original colorways, but if you were to reverse the original home colorway you’d get this.
Most of the sneaker features an all black suede upper while the heel features a synthetic leather wrapping from heel to ankle collar. Also visible is the two-toned gray and black colored midsole that is highlighted by the red solid rubber traction outsole that works well regardless of the surface you tend to play on.
The rumored release for these bad boys is much sooner than expected: September 16. It should retail for $190.
