The Air Jordan 2 was a collaborative effort between Bruce Kilgore and Peter Moore, resulting in a luxurious and sophisticated sneaker that stood apart from its predecessor. Its design was heavily influenced by the high-quality craftsmanship standards in Italy.

The 'White/Fire Red' colourway of the sneaker pays tribute to the Italian flag through its use of red and green accents and trims. The sneaker features a premium white leather base, which perfectly complements the aged, yellowed finish of the heel clip and midsole.
