Air Jordan 18 (XVIII) Original (OG) - White / Metallic Silver - Sport Royal

The Air Jordan 18 (XVIII) Original (OG) - White / Metallic Silver - Sport Royal were released on April 5, 2003, and retailed for $175. They feature an all white leather upper with a blue sole and inner lining, as well as chrome accents. The most noticeable feature is the wrap which overs the midfoot of the shoe,hiding the quick lace system. Tate Kuerbis was brought in to design them, and he had been with Jordan Brand since 1999 and Nike since 1995. Other specifications of the shoe include a carbon comfort plate, air vents, steel capped laces, full length Zoom Air insoles, as well as a second unit at the heel. The Air Jordan 18 (XVIII) is known to be very comfortable and has a sticky outsole which provides great traction on the hardwood. The futuristic and design is modeled after the sleek lines of the Lamborghini Murcielago, a carbon fiber-based monocoque of F1 race cars, Race car driving shoes (rubber heel wrap) and Fine Italian dress shoes (bold stitching on the soles). The shoe is virtually seamless, and that helps to draw more attention to it.
