Air Jordan 22 (XXII) Omega Black Varsity Red White shoes

Release date for the Air Jordan 22 (XXII) Omega Black Varsity Red White were June 2, 2007. They feature a picture of Michael Jordan with his arms extended in the air after a win. This shoe features a half white/ half red upper, white a clear outsole. The Air Jordan 22 was inspired by the F-22 Raptor Strike Fighter. When you look at the F-22 Raptor you see the sharp aerodynamic cuts that can cut through the air like ice. Some of these characteristics of the F-22 can be seen on the Jordan 22 . They grey contrast stitching is a nice touch, and feature a zig zag design, which goes back to the fighter jet, which moves the same way through the air, allowing it to remain unseen on enemy radars. Other features include a variable speed lacing system coupled with titanium lace loops as well as a durable titanium lace lock which allows a comfortable and sturdy fit. They also consist of a improved, color coded I.P.S. system which allows the wearer to choose his cushioning for each pod with either a responsive, double stacked Zoom Air pod, or a shock absorbing encapsulated air. Not only are these a very nice colorway, but the concept of the illustration on the side panel has never been seen on any pair of Michael Jordan shoes. They were very popular, especially among Jordan fanatics.
