Jovani Hernandez Although the biggest players in the sneaker space are constantly looking to innovate (see: adidas 4D, Nike Kobe 5 Protro), recent years have seen them shine a spotlight on products and stories from the past. Companies like Jordan Brand have stayed relevant with countless reissues of Michael Jordan’s signature sneakers, even among generations who never saw the man play. While in-game colorways remain the most popular retros, even getting repurposed for the golf course, pairs like the Air Jordan 2 “Rivals” make a compelling case for non-original outfits through story-driven design. And the narratives aren’t exclusive to the Jumpman. Elsewhere under the Nike Inc. umbrella, models like the Air Flight ’89 and The Air Jordan 5 Gets Transformed For The Golf Green honor institutions and individuals who played an important part in their legacy; Others, like the Air Foamposite One “Anthracite,” don’t innately carry a story, but serve as touchpoints for those who experienced them firsthand. But what happens when the imprint doesn’t have decades of history to pull from? adidas Yeezy and New Balance with Kawhi Leonard may argue that all you need is a willingness to disrupt the game, and all else will follow.
