The Air Jordan XVI returns in 2016

[ccastro02]

I think this confirmed that the xvi’s would sell “relatively” well, so this should instill some confidence in Nike.

Cmon jb, give the xvi’s a fair chance already.

Well they did retro the midnight navy 16's a couple of years back and I think they sold a decent amount.

Give us more OG 16 retros and more 17 retros!!
Just got these in and man they are amazing!!

 

[zeroregret]

I would like to see college blue 17's retro with the case and lightnings

Come on JB get it together!

Didn't they go on sale for as low as $80?

 

[wizards23brown]

I couldn’t care less about the briefcase, I would much rather have the 16 and 17 retros come in the “face” box.

Regret passing on these a few years ago

That's the only 17 colorway I care about right now, too. Others are nice but that OG release is the one I want.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

I'm so dumb for not trying to cop.

I didn‘t want to say it, I’m glad you did.

Same here.

they pretty much sold out everywhere in my city. I got my pair from the ES here

 

[ccastro02]

wore these the other day.

 

[h2k4]

there are so many possibilities with the 16 in terms of colors. There is no rhyme or reason with how JB approaches releases. It's irritating to me.

Hold up wait a minute all my Niketalkers get gangsta with it. Nineteen years ago today the Gingers dropped. One of the few XVIs that looks better without the shroud. I would love to know the backstory of how they came up with this colorway. If you still have yours do us, Mr. Smith III and Mr. Jordan a great service ; get out the beach cruiser, fake Rolex, two-way Motorola, Wizards gear, and listen to the bi****s and children say “let me ride (it must be the shoes )” in honor of this timeless masterpiece. How did the Gingers change you or your cousins life?

The 2012 Slim Jenkins IX was also released on this day.

How TF have they not brought these back yet? Are they waiting for 2022 / 20 year anniversary?

 

[ccastro02]

Still have my 2 pairs of OG gingers. Took a few picks a few weeks ago. I still think they all look better on feet without the shroud,

 

[calye2da]

JB needs to retro these & the cherry woods

 

[3god]

I really like the Gingers but already had the OG. I would definitely cop the Cherrywoods though.

 

[slaughterx]

I really need to get another pair of 16s... kinda ironic how the white/blue were my first pair of Js growing up but now that I own like 100 pairs of 1-18s I somehow don't have a single pair of 16s anymore.

Same, cherrywoods were my 1st pair of jays from the mainline. I used to rock air forces and team jays prior to that.
One of the kids from school had them and I was so in awe about them. When i found out they were Jordan’s, it made me like them even more. Thank god they ended up going on discount right in time for back to school. Was able to cop more pairs at the outlets thru summer of 02’.

I still have like 10 pairs of 16’s. They have high sentimental value to me.
