The Jordan Crescent City collection epitomizes the colorful landscape and cultural charm of the Big Easy. The Jordan family of athletes will don the Crescent City collection throughout the weekend when East meets West. Carmelo Anthony, Blake Griffin, Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook will pay tribute to what makes New Orleans special through their exclusive footwear.
Celebrating the passion of a city known around the world for its food, music and enduring spirit, the collection features vibrant colorways and a pop of infrared running through the entire collection. Each shoe — including the Jordan NBA Nikola Jokic Denver Nuggets Statement Edition 2020 Men's Jersey, Super.Fly2, CP3.VII and Jordan XX8SE — pays respect to the host city and a culture that is unlike any other in the world.
