Although not the official colorway, these kicks bring back that old school Burgundy and Grey color combo.  Unfortunately this nice, dressier colorway wasn’t enough to bring sales up.  The shoe, with its classier lace cover, was supposed to represent MJ’s change in life.  His plans, once retired, were to enter into the business realm, as he has done with his own brand.  As we all know, MJ would return to the NBA the next season, joining the Washington Wizards.  The shoe features white leather uppers with Burgundy accents and a grey nubuck cover.  Pics via Kixclusive
