Following both a Shock Drop and Exclusive Access release throughout the month of September, the heralded “Playoffs” officially returns to stores this weekend.
Iconized for its role in the first of Michael Jordan’s 3-peat championship run, the Air Jordan 8 returns amidst the silhouette’s 30th anniversary to a tried-and-true reissue of the 1993 model. Jet-black nubuck overlays and tumbled leather sections pair with chenille tongue tabs and embroidered forefoot straps for a nostalgic trip into the Beaverton brand’s archives of decades past. Hits of “University Red” and white harken to over 30 years of lore while colorful stained-glass inspirations invigorate the inner lining and heel counter.
The Air Jordan 8 “Playoffs” releases tomorrow, September 30th, in full family sizing. In the meantime, the pair can be seen one last time below alongside our accompanying store list.
For more from underneath the Jumpman banner, the Jordan 4 “Sail”recently surfaced in first-look imagery.
