Jordan Brand announced earlier this year that it would be bringing back its "Space Jam" sneaker, with a few updated designs. The latest edition comes in a space-themed box with Looney Tunes and Bugs Bunny-inspired graphics. Mirroring the shoes that MJ wore during the 1995 NBA Playoffs, the upper sees black mesh overlays with a higher-cut patent leather design. Additionally, the number "45″ is incorporated on the heel, while the insoles see classic Nike Air branding. Take a look at the photos above and mark your calendars for the Dec. 10th drop date.
Ahead of this weekend's release, we're taking a closer look at the much-anticipated 2016 "Space Jam." This of course isn't the first time that the coveted colorway has dropped, however. Another OG aspect of the 2016 delivery is the implementation of concord branding, as well as the #45 heel detail, while finally, the sole of this year's "Space Jam" 11s showcases a significantly brighter blue tint than 2009's.
In comparison to the 2009 version, the new, remastered pair boasts a heightened build that is more closely similar to the '95 OG iteration. The midsole, patent leather mudguard and model are all cut marginally taller than the aforementioned 2009 release.
The "Space Jam" was easily the biggest release of the holiday season, if not the entire year. Despite Jordan Brand making over a million pairs, the sneakers sold out everywhere. Now, small footers are in luck. Finish Line just restocked the "Space Jam" 11s in all kid's sizes, making these for those who want to double up or still need to buy a belated Christmas gift.
They shoes feature maroon and red; they will be completely covered in a mixture of plush velvet and nubuck materials. Branding comes in gold with the customary Jordan Jumpman logo embossed on the heel, and a stitched up "#23" on the back. Maroon round laces, a white midsole and a maroon outsole complete the look of the shoes.
