If you’re an ailing New York Knicks fan, you’d painfully admit that the only bright spots of the Knicks during the pre-Walsh era were a) David Lee’s tip-in off the in-bounds lob pass against Charlotte, b) Isiah Thomas leaving, and c) Quentin Richardson’s Air Jordan PE’s. Q-Rich’s jersey number ’23’ paired with the undeniable Knicks uniform colorways made for some of the most drool-inducing Player Exclusive Jordans ever created and he usually rocked some sick heat on the court (en route to yet another double-digit loss).
Here’s a look at a Q-Rich PE of the Air Jordan XX1, featuring a black leather upper, royal blue trim, an orange Q23 (no, that’s not a bus-route in Queens) logo and Jumpman at the toe and heel, with ‘Earned’ is stitched on the inner face of the tongue. Richardson was first brought on to Team Jordan during his Clipper days with partner-in-crime Darius Miles, but the head-banging duo of phenoms has evolved into role-player and retired (Miles), but Q-Rich still wears Jordans with the occasional PE.
