First Look: Stealth-inspired J’s

This special collection features a mix of performance and iconic retro styles that take color cues from the stealth-inspired AJ XX8

MJ once stated, “by the time you see me coming, it’s too late.” His quote, and the way he approached the game of basketball throughout his career, inspired the stealth aesthetic that is featured on the Air Jordan XX8. With it slated to hit shelves during basketball’s biggest weekend, we’ve put together a night-vision inspired collection that ushers in our most revolutionary Air Jordan ever.

At the forefront of this collection is the lightest Air Jordan of all time, the Air Jordan XX8. On February 16, you’ll find it in an ‘Electric Green’ colorway that brings the wavy camo across the shroud.

On the same day we’ll be hitting you with the night-vision inspired Air Jordan 1 Retro and Air Jordan 3 Retro. Both shoes bring you the Black/Electric Green/Canyon Purple combination, with the AJ 1 Retro also incorporating the Air Jordan XX8’s wavy camo throughout the upper.

Days before on February 14, we’ll be releasing our night-vision inspired Melo M9 and CP3.VI. Both of these integrate UV ink throughout the upper that reveals a glowing wavy camo when held under a black light. The Melo M9 features a glowing outsole while the CP3.VI features an illuminated Podulon midsole when exposed to black light.
