Air Jordan 16 OG 'Bred'
Hitting store shelves in February 2001, this OG Air Jordan 16 3/4 Hi appears in the inaugural black and Varsity Red colorway. The shoe marked a turning point for Michael Jordan’s signature line, with Tinker Hatfield passing the baton to a new designer, Wilson Smith III. He added a patent leather toe cap while concealing the rest of the upper in a magnetic leather shroud. A dual cushioning system features a blow-molded Air unit in the heel and Zoom Air in the forefoot.
