Black History Month signifies a month-long remembrance and honorary dedication to the influential events and moments that have shaped Black History in America. Nike, Jordan Brand, and Converse have teamed up to pay homage to three basketball athletes past and present who have exemplified greatness through their stellar achievements by creating the special Black History Month colorways of select Nike, Jordan, and Converse sneakers. Julius Erving, Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant are the three icons of basketball and Black History that will be celebrated next month through a special set of Nike/Jordan/Converse footwear in a pristine black/gold colorway.
