Air Jordan 16

Why Choose the Air Jordan 16?

The Air Jordan 16, released in 2001, marked Michael Jordan’s return to the game with the Washington Wizards and a new era for the Jordan Brand. Designed by Wilson Smith III, it was the first Air Jordan not crafted by Tinker Hatfield, signalling a fresh design direction while still honouring the brand’s innovative legacy.
The AJ16 stood out for its distinctive removable shroud, which allowed wearers to transition seamlessly from performance to style - reflecting Jordan’s evolution from athlete to businessman. It featured a combination of Zoom Air and Max Air cushioning for balanced responsiveness and comfort, along with a patent leather toe cap and a semi-translucent outsole for a bold, modern aesthetic.
