Issued in 2007, this is the box designed for the original Air Jordan XX2. It is an all-black box that features the camouflauge-like pattern all over it and folds open to reveal the sneakers. Designed after the aircraft hangar that the F-22 fighter plane resides in, there are no right angles along the box, just like the plane. Inside the box, there is a special serial number that is covered by a sticker. The serial number was made to be registered at Jumpman23.com to authenticate that pair.
It’s become a global phenomenon, the likes of which we may never see again. The perfect team assembled from the start: the alpha player in Michael Jordan, a corporate maverick savvy enough to leverage the young star in Phil Knight, and an architect-turned-designer in Tinker Hatfield eager to redefine the industry with his problem-solving approach to footwear. It was a time when the sun, moon and Mars aligned, and the dominance that Michael Jordan displayed nightly as a young Chicago Bull captured the imagination of adoring fans across the globe. Chicago soon began to beat, repeat and three-peat against the competition, twice, and the innovation making its way out of Beaverton was unparalleled across the footwear industry, marking both aesthetic and athletic firsts, as both the legendary Air Jordan shoe and Michael’s playing career itself reached mythical status.
