We all know what the final version of the last month along the Jordan River Parkway in West Jordan thanking Jordan Brands senior director of entertainment marketing Retro version earlier tonight. We’ve even seen some rare prototypes, but this pair here is something that not too many sneakerheads out there have ever laid eyes on.
