Air Jordan Retro 7 Bordeaux ( Black / Light Graphite – Bordeaux ) 304775-003

They seem, at first glance, to feature a simple black and grey upper which is bland, but a closer look reveals a very colorful tongue, as well as bright and vibrant accents. The back of the heel features a V- Shaped emblem with hie Airness’ number on it (23), as well as an assortment of the same accent colors on the shoe’s outsole. The Air Jordan 7 (VII) features a design similar to the Nike Huarache technology to create a shoe that really sticks to your foot. The shoe’s design was influenced by an African Art poster that Jordan brand mastermind Tinker Hatfield bought in Portland.

Jordan Brand really knows how to give the people what they want. Just when you think they can’t rile up the hungry masses again they go and pull out the Air Jordan 7 Bordeaux and make things interesting.

We all know what the shoes look like by now and the big question is do they live up to the standards they once set. The answer is a resounding yes with the Black/Light Graphite nubuck upper in full effect. The Bourdeaux tongue flies high and the plastic 23 heel emblem pulls it all together. The changes on this model are subtle if any and as April approaches surely there will be a more thorough comparison.
