Air Jordan XX3 will come to an end next year with the twenty third rendition of the Air Jordan legacy. Going back to the legendary duo of Tinker Hatfield and Mark Smith, the Air Jordan XX3 is everything that has made Air Jordan so revolutionary and desirable. The high quality performance features go hand in hand with an aesthetic inherently Jordan. Among the first releases are a University Blue colorway symbolic of Jordan’s time at the University of North Carolina. The first release will see 23 pairs unveiled at the top twenty three Jordan Brand retailers on Friday January 25th.

With next year seeing a shift away from retro Jordans, the retro fix will be available only through Countdown Packs and Air Jordan x Air Force 1 Fusion releases. Among the Fusion releases are these black-fire red release which perhaps best embodies the Air Jordan V it represents. The black nubuck upper includes an ice blue sole and red midsole with 23 embroidered on the heel.

With the Air Jordan series of signature shoes hitting the iconic 23 next year, a series of Countdown Packages are slated to drop. The premise theme behind each pack is to include Air Jordans which together add up to 23. The first release will include the Shadow X Retro and the White/Black XIII. With the end of retro’s perhaps in sight, this may prove to be a hot commodity. This first pack will release January 1st at Niketowns and Jordan Urban Accounts with a suggested retail of $310 USD. However Japanese retailer essense has offered a pre-order.
