Air Jordan X Chicago   January 2012

Michael Jordan suddenly announced his return to the NBA on March 18, 1995, and quickly inserted himself into the next game on March 19th against the Indiana Pacers. During that ‘Welcome Back’ game, Michael wore the White/Black-True Red colorway of the Air Jordan X, one that is often regarded as the ‘Chicago’ colorway. Aside from the obvious color coordination with the Bulls uniforms, the ‘Chicago’ was actually part of the Air Jordan X City Series, which featured the tenth Air Jordan shoe in city-specific colorways like New York, Sacramento, and Seattle. In 2009, notice of a Retro release (as part of the Air Jordan Collezione 10/13 package) had sneakerheads excited for a possible future return of the shoe, and during the Spring 2012 season, you can welcome back the Air Jordan X ‘Chicago’ with open arms. These are slated for a release during the early part of the Spring 2012 season (January being the tentative month) with ’23′ stitched on the upper and the black/red checkerboard pattern on the inner lining. Excited? Let us know if you’ve been waiting for these.

    Yes!!!!! This is one of the best looking Jays there is….hopefully the quality is good, and I hope the "23" doesn't ruin the shoe……even though i'd rather them come without the "23" stitched on the upper, I'm not gonna dislike one of the best kicks of all time because of his number being put on the sneakers….I'm ready for em. 2012 is lookin great-Jordan IV white cement, Oreo's, and Military Blue's, then some Chicago Xs!!!

  45. @SlingSlong Says:

    Hey, it's just my opinion. Chicago 10's happen to be in my top 3. I've been waiting for this shoe a long time.

  46. @HenryAkinE Says:

    I really cant wait for these to drop. I always wanted a pair of 10's. And seeing how my favorite colorway is about to drop i will defiantly be buying these.

    I heard these were dropping December though. But i guess January is fine.

    Either way im satisfied

  64. Allan P. Says:

    SOME 10'S! :)

  65. airsj Says:

    yo, where did you find that the oreo 4s are dropping ive been looking for a pair of those!

  66. airsj Says:

    well might as well get a job or hustle if you want both and personally i rather skip on the 10s that the white cements cuz the 4s are my fav number and i rather get the white n black 10s that these

  67. airsj Says:

    hypebeast ass if you dont like em why copp cuz everybody rock js get the hell out of here with that!

  68. lee Says:

    need that 45 on these no doubt…fuck the 23 for these… wouldn't feel the same

  69. JMartin23 Says:

    Hopefully they will leave both numbers off of the shoe entirely! 23 was Michael Jordan's jersey number. When Jordan retired, his #23 was retired by the Bulls. When he returned from retirement Michael wore these shoes (the 10's). Michael's jersey number at the time was 45 which he wore only briefly before unretiring the #23. Michael wore #9 in the Olympics FYI.
