About the Jordan 2 Quai 54 2016

Living up to the success of the Air Jordan 1 was no small task, so Nike enlisted two of its most accomplished designers, Bruce Kilgore and Peter Moore, to collaborate on the newest Air Jordan design.

Kilgore, who created the Air Force 1 in 1982, and Moore, who designed the Air Jordan 1, decided to develop a shoe that could perform on the court and still look great with a suit.

Nike was able to achieve the elegance of the Air Jordan 2 by producing them in Italy using premium Italian leather and faux iguana skin. They also eliminated the large Swoosh logo for a cleaner look. Although the Nike signature appears on the heel and the outsole, this was the first sneaker to feature Air Jordan as the primary branding with the iconic Wings logo on the tongue.

The new Air Jordan design also underwent performance upgrades, including a speed lacing system, foam midsoles, larger air units in the heel for more support and a large heel cup wrapping the rear of the shoe for stability.

History of Air Jordan 2

Originally released in 1986, the Air Jordan 2 is an often-overlooked silhouette in the Air Jordan lineage, but it’s a worthy shoe, nonetheless. While it wasn't as monumental as the Air Jordan 1 that preceded it or as culture-shifting as the Air Jordan 3 that followed, the Air Jordan 2 was undoubtedly ahead of its time.

The silhouette embodied luxury decades before there was a steady demand for designer-quality shoes from sportswear brands or full-on collaborations like the recently released Dior x Air Jordan 1.

Jordan 2 quai 54 2016

In 2016, the Air Jordan 2 Quai 54 was released to commemorate the internationally renowned Paris streetball tournament. The Jordan 2 Retro Quai 54 features a creamy leather base with gold accents. Gold can be seen on the heel, lace eyelets, and branding is seen on the tongue and heel. The iconic Air Jordan "Wings" logo is featured on the tongue of one of the Quai 54 Jordan 2 sneakers while the other sneaker features the tournament logo. The differences continue on the heel of the Air Jordan 2 Quai 54 sneakers as well with one shoe having Nike branding and the other saying "P75."
