What makes the Jordan 39 stand out from other Jordan designs? One of the first things you'll notice is the white camouflage-like pattern across the side panels and wrapping to the top of the heel. While this seems like a random pattern, it was created by scanning a pair of Air Jordan 29s that had been painted and then wear-tested with MJ's patented cross-step move. It captures The Black Cat's prowess in motion so you can match him, step for step.
The mid-cut silhouette offers slightly more ankle support than a lower-cut shoe. Here, you'll notice the collar is lined with black. The tongue is also black and features a textured drawing, as are the laces and the vamp.
A chunky white midsole dominates the rest of this basketball sneaker. It's actually the first shoe in the Jordan lineup to feature both a full-length ZoomX foam and a Zoom Air unit, meaning your next game should give you more comfort than ever before.
While Jordan may be retired, his legacy lives on with the new Air Jordan XXXIX "Black/Sail." Cop a pair when these drop in men's sizes on July 27, online and at your local Hibbett and City Gear stores.
Of course, this is just one colorway of what will likely be several. Stay up to date on future Jordan 39 and additional releases when you follow our sneaker launch calendar.
