Talking all things Jordan in the Pacific Northwest.
Complex‘s Joe La Puma discusses exclusivity, first Air Jordans and collaborating on a signature shoe with Seattle-born rapper Macklemore. “There’s that exclusivity with Jordans” explains the artist, “which is also what I kind of fight with in my head.
