ijapino - Great thread!
For his Wizards "kicksology", also add White/Red XVIIIs, White/Red Team FBI, and White/French Blue VIIs.
And he wore two different blue colourways of XVII Lows; one university, one royal.

Nice official thread ijapino
....one of those that will be used for reference a lot, almost like the sneaker maintanence one. I find myself wondering about a few kicks he wore as well so this a great post!!! Blazers21NTNP also held it down in the original thread which was asked about for MJs playoff kicks also...good work by both of you guys.
I wasn't even aware in '95 he wore the 11s! I definitely knew about the Penny flight 1s but not those. Well it was around that time '93-'95 that I started to understand and look at bball cuz of MJ (as otherwise I was strictly tennis- big Sampras fan) but wasn't inclined to checking out the shoes too much till the '96-'97 season. So that was some great visual info...and it does appear, if you look closely in your pic that there was a blue jumpman on the then "black/white" 11s which we will later affectionately know as the Space Jams. Maybe to be considered then as an Orlando 11? Much like what we saw done recently with the 6rings (just for reference sake) with the Utah, Seattle, Portland, Detroit and LA colourways?
-and yall 4got the lightning 17 lows

FANTASTIC post Cory!
Slight edit - you said 99 - retired.... yes MJ was retired, but there was no ASG in 1999 (lockout)

Mods/Admins: Please kindly make sure that this gets archived.
History wise, as far as Jordan Brand forum is concerned, this has to be one of the most imperative post there is in my entire 8 years here at NT. The information alone is beyond valuable to say the very least. Not to mention the meticulous images provided, which to me, is certainly the icing on the cake.

Because the Raptors (the team) were not even invented yet in 1992 when the shoes came out.

And question....when was this?
(It's labeled Slam Dunk Contest in Getty Images)
Mike wearin the cement 3s (or true blues). 1988 All Star Saturday is shown in the photo. So it was not the actual game. And in this photo he is wearing a white jersey when we know in the 1988 dunk contest he was wearing red. Isiah is also shown who obviously was not in the dunk contest. Mike was not in the three point shootout that year...
