This weekend marks the latest release of the Air Jordan 10 "Chicago," the colorway that Michael Jordan wore during his first comeback in 1995.

The shoe is actually being billed as the Air Jordan 10 "Double Nickel" this time around, which refers to Michael Jordan's performance at Madison Square Garden where he dropped 55 points on the Knicks. Ahead of the sneaker's arrival, we tracked down an original pair of Jordan 10s, the 2012 retro, and a pair of the 2015 "Double Nickel" version in order to see where they differ. The findings are captured in the latest episode of Sole Collector's Retrograde, where sneaker retros are pitted against previous versions. Watch the clip to see the biggest differences and stay tuned for a more detailed breakdown on the things that seperate the Air Jordan 10 "Chicago" editions over the years.

Thanks to Image NY and Jazzy for the sneakers.
