NIKE, NIKE AIR JORDAN 7, SIZE 15, SIZE 15, SIZE 14, SIZE 14

Rubber, Leather, Cotton 

2004

The Olympic Nike Air Jordan 7 was designed by Tinker Hatfield and worn by Michael Jordan during the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona when he led the ‘Dream Team’ to Gold. In 2004 Nike returned to the Air Jordan 7 in celebration of the Athens Summer Olympic Games. The four Team USA players who donned player-exclusive retro versions were Carmelo Anthony, Michael Finley, Jason Kidd, and Ray Allen.  


Each of the four features personalized embroidery on the lateral sides of both the right and left heels. Carmelo Anthony’s pair has “Melo” on both heels. Michael Finley’s pair has “FIN” on both heels. Jason Kidd’s pair features his logo and jersey number ‘5’ on both heels. Ray Allen’s pair has his jersey number “12” on the left heel and “RAY” on the right heel. These shoes were never released to the public. 


The Olympic-inspired colorway consists of white leather perforated uppers with metallic silver overlays and Midnight Navy tongues with True Red interior lining. The Air Jordan logo and Jumpman motif are embroidered in golden yellow thread. The soles feature pops of Midnight Navy, True Red, and Gold. The heel features the number 9, after the original 1992 Air Jordan 7, and in homage to Michael Jordan’s jersey number.
