But preceding the ‘Olympic’ is the original Black/True Red colorway of the Air Jordan VII that Michael Jordan debuted after the 1992 NBA All-Star Game; this OG Air Jordan introduced the off-beat purple into the primary ‘Chicago Bulls’ colorway of an Air Jordan shoe, and as Jordan Brand keeps things close to the vest with the tonal black nubuck upper and True Red distinction.

SNEAKER WATCH: Nike Air Max Darwin 360 – Dark Grey – Cyber

His recently resurrected Ndestrukt silhouette is the one we remember Dennis Rodman wearing en route to that first Chicago Bulls championship, but we can’t forget about its predecessor and the model that was perhaps The Worm’s most aptly titled signature release.  The Air Darwin’s rugged backwards-Swoosh build synchronized perfectly with Rodman’s mid-’90s descent into the Mike Tyson zone, and with the aforementioned 1995-96s getting the call off the bench with fresh legs, now’s the perfect time to do the same with the last shoe Rodman rocked in San Antonio.  The Nike Air Max Darwin 360 brings that same ‘Neon’ Air Max 95 flare we just saw on the Air Max Shake Evolve and will arrive at select Nike Sportswear dealers like Mr R. in Miami starting March 31st.  Photos: ITSB
