Nike Air 180 “Concord”- August 7th
The Tinker Hatfield designed 180 needs no reintroduction. But, sticking with the olympic lineage, the Concord 180’s legacy is closely knit to Michael Jordan famously wearing the pair for the Barcelona Olympics. Jordan is not known to be one to wear sneakers outside of his own brand, making the allure for sneaker heads that much more interesting. The Concord 180 releases on SNKRS and other retailers on August 7th.
