Anniversary-Honoring Cultural Sneakers

Jordan Brand Launches the New Jordan Zion 2 Sneaker

Nike introduces the newest Jordan Zion 2 sneaker model in a colorway that is entitled '25 Years in China' to honor the special milestone. The shoes have a black and white color palette that is detailed with themed motifs throughout the silhouette. It starts with a white base foundation and has black overlaying details on top including the signature forefoot strap.

The black overlaying details also have an iridescent finish to the material, which are accompanied by silver accents as the branding by the heel and tongue. It sits on top of an all-black sole unit that also incorporates the Zoom Air technology and emphasizes cushioning by the heel section. It is set to launch later this year online at Nike and select retailers.
