Jordan 10 retro Super Bowl LIV

A Look at the Jordan 10 Retro Super Bowl LIV

"I'm back." With those words in 1995, Michael Jordan ended his brief retirement and stepped back on the court to dominate again. Fans worldwide were elated, and MJ quickly returned to top form donning the Air Jordan 10 in the Chicago colorway. The number 23 was gone, replaced by 45, but sneakerheads knew the AJ 10 was a number worth owning.

The Story Behind the Air Jordan X Design

Although MJ never wore the previous iteration, the Air Jordan IX, on the court, they were designed while he was still suiting up as a Chicago Bull. Air Jordan designer Tinker Hatfield, who led the creations of the Jordan III through IX models, wanted the post-retirement X to signify a highlight reel of Jordan's most significant achievements from each of his seasons in the NBA. Like banners hanging from the rafters, the AJ 10's sole featured ten milestones representing Jordan the man and Air Jordan the shoe:

  • 85 ROOKIE OF YEAR
  • 86 63 POINTS
  • 87 SCORING TITLE
  • 88 DUNK CHAMP
  • 89 ALL DEFENSE
  • 90 SCORES 63 POINTS
  • 91 MVP/CHAMPIONSHIP
  • 92 MVP/CHAMPIONSHIP
  • 93 MVP/CHAMPIONSHIP
  • 94 BEYOND

The Jordan 10 Retro Super Bowl LIV released on February 1st, 2020, in celebration of the 54th Super Bowl. Miami inspired the colorway for these sneakers, because that is where the 54th Super Bowl took place. The colorway consists of palm print in pastel colors on top of a white base. These side panels have a wavy pattern, as do the white midsoles. An alternating brown and pink outsole ground the design. Pink accents the lining with teal used for the heel pull tabs. The upper is made of canvas, and gum rubber is used for the outsoles. For cushioning, the sneakers feature Phylon and full-length Air.
