The Air Jordan 2 has been successfully revived by the Jordan Brand, and over the past few years, numerous hues of both high-top and low-top sneakers have been released for both men and women. Although halfway through 2023, Jordan Brand has showed no intention of slowing down the pace of AJ 2 releases.
In fact, fans expect to see a lot of Air Jordan 2 Retros in 2024 as well, with plenty more in store for them next year, like the recent “Sanddrift” colorway. Clad in a White/Cement Grey-Sanddrift-Neutral Grey-Sail color scheme, the Air Jordan 2 Retro Low "Sanddrift" is set to enter the sneaker market sometime during Spring 2024, as part of Nike's celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Air Jordan line.
The shoe will be offered at a retail price tag of $155 USD for each pair. Fans and other curious buyers can find them online as well as offline locations via the Nike’s SNKRS app and a few other associated retail chains.
Air Jordan 2 Retro Low “Sanddrift" shoes are complemented with white and cement grey hues
The Air Jordan 2 Retro Low "Sanddrift" is a new colorway of the iconic basketball shoe that debuted in 1987. The shoe pays homage to Michael Jordan's legendary career, from his college days at North Carolina to his professional dominance with the Chicago Bulls. The following information regarding the history and creation of the AJ 2 shoe can be found on Jordan Brand's official website:
“With the introduction of the Air Jordan II comes a new era in footwear. On the heels of Michael Jordan's masterful entry into the game, and with calculated precision, the AJ Il laid the visionary foundation for a long and prosperous footwear dynasty.”
It further continues:
“Made in Italy, with faux lizard skin, sleek lines and no swoosh, the shoe was an elegant design that added sophistication to MJ's soaring style.”
Aligned with this vision, the new “Sanddrift” shoe features a premium leather upper in white, with dark powder blue accents on the tongue, heel, and midsole. The shoe also has a sail-colored outer sole unit and a gym red Jumpman logo on the tongue. Its design is inspired by the original Air Jordan 2, which was made in Italy and had a luxurious look and feel.
The shoe also nods to the Air Jordan 3 "White Cement," which was the first shoe to feature the elephant print and the visible Air unit. The sneaker model is expected to be a limited edition, with only one pair available for purchase per consumer. The shoe is also rumored to have a special packaging that includes extra laces and a commemorative booklet.
The Air Jordan 2 Retro Low "Sanddrift" is a must-have for any sneaker enthusiast, as it combines the history and heritage of the Air Jordan brand with a fresh and modern twist. The shoe is a perfect example of how Nike continues to innovate and elevate its products, while staying true to its roots. In fact, it is more than just a footwear, it is a statement of style and culture.
Stay tuned for the confirmed release dates and more details for the aforementioned AJ2 iteration. Jordanheads can sign up on Nike’s website or install the SNKRS app for timely alerts about the shoe.
