DJ Khaled may be the only one with an adult-sized pair of Just Don x Air Jordan 2s in the anticipated “Arctic Orange” colorway. The unique pink variant, which made waves this past January, had fans clamoring for more details. After all, it’s the third and final AJ2 rendition from Don C and Jordan. In an exclusive interview with Jordan Brand’s new blog, the acclaimed record producer revealed how he managed to nab a pair.

“I remember calling Reggie [Saunders], I was like, ‘Yo Reggie, imma wear a pink suit at the Beverly Hills Hotel for my press conference. Do you have any pink J’s?,’” Khaled professed. “That morning, I was surprised with some pink Don C’s. I didn’t know that they only making these for kids. It makes the shoe 10 times more exclusive even though they’re already exclusive. They’re pink Don C’s. I haven’t seen them. I haven’t even seen Don C with them.”

There is still no official details yet regarding the Just Don x Air Jordan 2 “Arctic Orange” and whether or not the duo will only offer kids’ sizes. Nonetheless, check out DJ Khaled’s full interview at air.jordan.com.
