Air Jordan Retro 8 Aqua – As a long-time sneaker collector, the Jordan 8 was never my thing. It was the rich cousin of the Nike Air Raid, but over time, one color that stands out above the rest is the Aqua. The uppers are mostly back with a color-blocked charcoal heel that starts the rich turquoise, grape purple, and black sole. The chenille Jumpman patch on the tongue finishes off the unique-looking basketball boot. This original colorway of the 8 is set to drop this Friday at retailers as part of Nike’s Black Friday.
