I hate when this thread gets bumped and it is not news of a release. My heart skips a beat just to be disappointed.

I don't see why the black/red XVI hasn't retroed again. It should have.

I'd settle with some lows at this point. This is absurd.

Was really hoping we'd see a 20 year anniversary retro release at the very least. Very disappointed that they continue to butcher every signature shoe from the 1-14, but 16's and 17's cant get no love?

I agree. They already brought back 18's. Time for the 16's and 17's to come back.

Maybe in 2024, we'll see the retro of the black/red XVI, that's 16 years after the dmp XVI black/red, 23 years after the original XVI black/red.

16-18’s are my highschool days shoes so I’ll always hold them to some regard. Of the 3 I’d only wear the 16’s today

It’s outraging that they will pump out dozens of 1s and 4s and 13s but release like literally almost nothing post 14s… Like come on wtf. Give us all the OGs, and some lows, and a couple new colorways.
These samples would sell like good coke, guaranteed.

Unfortunately I think the Navy retro in 2016 left a bad taste because it flopped.

Such an elegant design, from the court to the ballroom in an instant

Wasn’t the price like $250 on them too? No wonder they were gonna flop so hard

they still made a profit on them, why should they care that much?

I didn't even like the lows when they first came out. The white/red was the unofficial back to school shoe that year. The black lows were pretty popular too.

The 16 lows are one of my favorite lows in the whole line. 16, 17, and 18 lows are the best!!!

17 lows are the greatest Air Jordan Low of all time.

I could never get past that collar on the 17s lows. For me the best jordan lows are the 13s, 6s, and 11s

I must've picked up and looked at the white/red lows in my local FTL like 10 different times but never went through with buying a pair. It was a weird shoe ... I wanted it, but then when I had it in front of me, something about it just wasn't quite right. I think it was all the white on the front of the shoe. I always felt like the toe piece should have been red or gray, if not black. That said, I always regretted not just saying eff it and buying them LOL. I'd definitely buy them now if they retroed.

I almost consider it a separate model shoe from the XVI mid. It is definitely unique.

Maybe we get another retro run in 3 years for the 23 year anniversary? I mean they gotta retro the other cw’s at some point.
