Due to the fact that they don’t have nearly the same emphasis on basketball these days, and that their lifestyle-shoe business is so robust, Converse’s rich history of dope on-court models occasionally goes overlooked. That’s (thankfully) unlikely for this year however, courtesy of a long-time-coming Converse Aerojam Retro. I’ll give you a moment to rejoice. (Nike owns Converse, of course, in case you were wondering how this is relevant to Nikeblog.)
The signature shoe of Larry Johnson back in his Grandmama days, the Aerojam returns to shelves twenty years after its 1993 debut, and it’s just as eye-popping now as it was two decades ago. React Juice is visible in the heel and ankle, while a removable lace-cover adds a certain flair.
Set to drop November 14 exclusively at Foot Locker, the Converse Aerojam will be available in the original black/teal colorway as well as two new styles.
