[ny giants 11]

Haven't seen this posted anywhere.... but this is a pretty cool timeline created by JB to commemorate the HOF induction.

It shows the inspiration behind every AJ model.

I think they're white or at least light, light grey. Shadows might make them appear darker.

Air Jordan History of Flight - All WhiteCollection

The shoes are actually all white, it was just the way they were shot.

Many of today's sneakerheads were not around to witness Michael Jordan at his best in the late 80's and early 90's however that hasn'tstopped them from purchasing a number of the new Retro Air Jordan sneakers that have dropped season after season, month after month, week after week. It seemsthat Jordan Brand has put together something to help all of us Jordan fans and sneakerheads alike learn more about Michael Jordan and beyond that the sneakersthat he wore. Brand Jordan has put together a very interactive "Air Jordan History of Fight" feature on their Jumpman23 website allowing users to learn more about each sneaker, it's design inspiration, some random facts about Michael and when hewore them, as well as other points of information surrounding each sneaker. You will also notice that each Air Jordan image used in this feature is All White,something that we saw via Chris Paul's Twitter earlier this year, does that mean that there is a possibility the Air Jordan All White Collection will make it to retail? The Jumpman 23website's AIr Jordan History of Flight Feature also features a link to an ESPN site that will be counting down MJ's Top 23 plays up until he isinducted into the Naismith BasketballHall of Fame.

i guess you didnt look...

Purely ingenious. This is something that all people can enjoy regardless of their age. It restores the true meaning for some while it instills an untappedknowledge for others. This definately sets the tone for what lies ahead!!!

 

[ny giants 11]

Thanks for updating with screenshots! Some of the animations are hilarious... also, was it just me or did not every animation load?

 

[ijapino]

That was fun.

I pride myself on being an Air Jordan aficionado, and I nit pick at lil incorrect info from time to time. With that said, the only error I found was for theAJX's...It claims that Jordan started sponsoring 4 NCAA teams that year...California, Cincy, NC A&T and UNC.

They didn't get sponsored by Jordan till the Brand went solo in 96-97. And UNC wasn't one of the original teams at that point. St. Johns was.

 

[ny giants 11]

^ Just a little nitpicking

UNC was wearing Jordan X's and XI's though (Stackhouse, Sheed, Jameson)

 

[ijapino]

Yeah, I remember Stack wearing the X's...I meant to say they weren't "Officially" branded till later on.

 

[ny giants 11]

I thought it was really cool to try and figure out what some of them where before the words popped up. I got like 90% lol

 

[grand hustlepimpin]

looks really dope. I am going to check it out right now.

[micheal623]

I will have to pick up a few of these. not all of them merely a select few. i think all you guys know witch ones i'm talking about...

 

[msheraton23]

thats pretty sick.. they should make print outs of them to come w/ the shoes if they do that white collection thing

 

[Renaldo Balkman]

are those the all white pairs that were supposed to release?

 

[shoebacca]

This presentation makes these much more appealing, I'm feeling the I's, IV's, V's, VI's, X's, XI's, XII's, XIII's. Anyrelease info on these yet?
