The Air Jordan 7 ‘Olive’ Blends The Old with the New

2022 marked the 30th anniversary of the iconic Air Jordan 7, originally released in 1992. The sneaker remains one of the most storied in Michael Jordan’s legacy as he secured his second-ever NBA title in the silhouette. While 2022 may have come to a close, the celebration isn’t over, as the Air Jordan 7 is getting an “Olive” colorway to start the year. 

The Air Jordan 7 “Olive” features a familiar colorblocking that is extremely similar to the famed “Bordeaux” colorway while mixing the design of the recently released Air Jordan 7 “Afrobeats.” The silhouette features an olive green suede base with black suede overlays. The yellow and burgundy accents found on the AJ 7 Bordeaux’s midsole and tongue reappear on the colorway. The jagged African-inspired details found on the Air Jordan 7 “Afrobeats” appear once more on the heel of the shoe and throughout the quarter panels.

The look is completed by golden embroidered details on the heel tabs and unique Nike Air branding on the heel, which never appeared on the original run of the Air Jordan 7.  The Air Jordan 7 “Olive” releases on January 7 via Nike and select retailers for $210.
