Although he hasn’t played professional basketball in almost 20 years, kids still worship Michael Jordan. They know the Flu Game, the Shot, and all the championships. But what do they love most of all? Those. Shoes.
Everyone knows the lore behind all the numbered Retros, but the Jordan Jumpman Pro for kids is a significant silhouette in Air Jordan history. The Jumpman Pro debuted as a top-tier basketball shoe and It was the very first model released under the newly minted Jordan Brand, after Michael and Nike decided it was time to create a stand-alone brand for all Air Jordan products. It was also the first non-numbered Jordan shoe released in the “Team Jordan” line of models to complement the annual flagship Air Jordan. With its clean look and great performance, the Jumpman Pro was a popular model in ’97 on the court at every level of play. It remains one of the most celebrated Jordan team models to this day, eagerly welcomed by collectors any time it returns as a retro release.
If you know your Air Jordans, the kids’ Jumpman Pro will likely look familiar to you. In fact, its design is very reminiscent of one of the most beloved Air Jordan models of all time, the Air Jordan 12. Released in the same year as the twelfth Air Jordan, the Jumpman Pro for kids also features a leather and synthetic upper with premium cushioning and a midfoot shank for support. And just like the Air Jordan 12, it’s a classic, must-have piece of any Air Jordan collection. As a retro release, the kids’ Jumpman Pro is available in original colorways, as well as all-new looks for a fresh new spin on the silhouette. Don’t miss out on this important piece of Air Jordan heritage.
