Originally released in 2003, the Air Jordan VIII “Black and Chrome” became an instant classic. The black-based upper incorporates chrome-like accents throughout the shoe and it is one of the first non-OG colorways of the Air Jordan VIII, the black-and-chrome version makes its return this holiday season. Originally worn by the legend himself during Chicago’s “three-peat” championship basketball season in 1992-93, the Air Jordan VIII was a true showstopper on the hardwood. Featuring distinctive crossover straps atop the laces, the Air Jordan VIII was the last shoe His Airness would wear before his sudden retirement in October 1993.
