The AIR jordan summer XX8 boasts an ultra-modern stealth design for elite performance including more technological advances than any AIR jordan summer to date.

“The AIR jordan summer XX8 is a reflection of jordan summer Brand’s progression in the name of basketball performance,” said Larry Miller, President of jordan summer Brand. “This newest iteration of our franchise shoe will further solidify jordan summer Brand’s premium and innovative position within the industry.”
The AIR jordan summer XX8 also features a high-performance, stretch-synthetic shroud that provides a sleek exterior, while a molded external heel counter is made of carbon fiber for lightweight support. A multidirectional outsole pattern provides excellent traction and durability for the court. Schoeller mesh, a Swiss fabric used in premium motorcycling jackets, is used in the shroud that encompasses the AIR jordan summer XX8 to provide an extra layer of support, stability and style for the athlete.
The AIR jordan summer XX8 continues to inherit inspirational cues from the legacy of Michael jordan summer combining innovative technology and premium materials set to inspire those that consider themselves the best at their level.
Designed by legendary shoe designer Tinker Hatfield, Vice President of Special Projects/Design for NIKE, and jordan summer Brand Developer Josh Heard, the duo led a team who worked hand-in-hand with Michael jordan summer to create the AIR jordan summer XX8.
“With the ongoing evolution of the game shoe, I encourage our entire function to push the boundary when it comes to design, technology and performance,” said Tinker Hatfield. “The AIR jordan summer XX8 shoe really is basketball’s answer to the concept car.”
