Michael Jordan hasn’t been in the NBA for decades, but he continues to satiate his competitive spirit on the golf course. To help him dominate on the green as it did on the hardwood, Nike, Inc. has turned some of his iconic signature basketball sneakers into golf shoes. The latest example arrives in the form of an Air Jordan 14 clad in ‘Bordeaux.’
First reported by Romania’s Sneaker Market, the pair joins an ‘Oxidized Green’ style set to release on Friday, Feb. 21. Like its counterpart, the follow-up AJ14 for golf is said to feature a predominantly ‘White/Black’ color scheme. The model’s traditional perforated leather upper will work in-tandem with glossy, race car-inspired details to bring Tinker Hatfield’s design to life years after its debut. The wine-reminiscent hue, then, will animate everything from the Ferrari-like Jumpman badge on the lateral profile, mid-foot shanks underfoot, and other accents on the shoe. The detachable spikes are expected to complete the package in tonal ‘Black.’
No word has surfaced about other Air Jordan Golf shoes in the works, but the appearance of ‘Bordeaux’ on the modified AJ14 could suggest that a golf-ready version of the Air Jordan 7 – the shoe that included the wine-reminiscent tone as part of its original colorway roster – will land at some point.
Stay tuned for updates on the ‘Bordeaux’-covered Jordan 14 Golf shoe. A Nike.com launch should take place between Black Friday (Nov. 28) and Dec. 25 for around $200.
In related Jumpman news, the Air Jordan 4 ‘White Cement’ is set to return in May.
