Series Continues to Invent New Looks
With its summer 2018 debut, the first installment in the Jordan Aura line borrowed hits from the JordanΒ Retro 10 and 11. The elastic midfoot lace bands look straight out of the 11, and the shiny toe cap recalls the legendary patent leather mud guard. The layers on the back half of the upper borrow from the 10. You can still find it in Black/Black or Black/Court Purple/White with a hit of bright yellow on the midsole.
For the sequel, the Jordan Max Aura 2, designers again mashed up elements for a unique look. The quilted look of the Jordan Retro 13 is evident along the laces of the Aura 2, and the look of theΒ Retro 11 returns again with a patent leather mud guard. Let that patent leather shine on the Black/Black colorway, or go with the Black/Grey that offers just a taste of red.
Jordan shoesβ―never stop inspiring. If you love Jordan Retros but arenβt sure which one to lock down, you can find another mashup model in the 6 Rings. This one blends elements from each of the Air Jordans that MJ wore when he won his half-dozen championships.Β
Or maybe you want to focus on one because it connects you with a memory, or you simply love the look. The Retro 13 tells the story of MJβs βBlack Catβ persona, a nickname teammates gave him because of the strong, stealthy way he sliced and diced defenders. ThatΒ one features a quilted look on the upper, with a paw patterned outsole that dares to grip anything.
