Air Jordan 17 Retro "Copper"

The Air Jordan 17 Retro "Copper" is scheduled to debut Saturday April 9th for $250 USD. Catch the full story from Nike.com below and cop your pair from the SNKRS app. 

Back in 2002, His Airness returned to the game of basketball for the third time while introducing a new model – the Air Jordan XVII. The shoe makes its triumphant return in its original color way April 9 in Men’s sizing only on SNKRS. 

Jazz music and luxury were the two notable themes behind the Air Jordan XVII. The shoe was constructed to fit the needs of His Airness’ style of game that resembled the improvisation of Jazz music. Luxury was achieved by taking design inspiration from a first-class automobile.

Black exotic leather sits at the top of the tongue and wraps around the heel of the shoe. The white upper is complimented by copper hits all throughout the shoe. To finish, the black and white outsole introduces hits of sport royal blue.

Rumored 2015 Air Jordan Releases

We haven't even made it to 2014 yet and we're already getting a preview of some kicks that may be dropping in 2015. These 2015 predictions are based off confirmed releases from 2014. The Air Jordan 7 "Hare", Air Jordan 7 "Flint Grey" and a possible Air Jordan 17 model are all on the list as possible 2015 releases. 2015 marks the 23rd Anniversary of the Air Jordan 7 so it would make a lot of sense to see a few 7 models that year. None of these are confirmed so be sure to keep it locked to FollowTheKicks for more sneaker news and updates.
