Nike Jordan Series .01 Dear Larry

Style Code: CV8129-100

One of the greatest influences in MJ's early life was his big brother Larry. Growing up, the pair competed in the back garden, with the older Larry consistently claiming victory. But His Airness never quit. In honour of those battles, and the persistence they helped forge, the Jordan Series .01 touches on an early chapter in MJ's path to greatness. Stitched lettering on the upper and tongue nod to the opening line of a letter between the two brothers, while the shoe's circular tread pattern pays homage to their bond. "45/2" nods to the number 23, which was chosen by MJ to signify that if he could be half as great as Larry—who wore 45—he'd be alright.
