20 Air Jordan 8 Samples That Never Released

More than 20 years of unreleased colorways.

Michael Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to their first three-peat wearing the Air Jordan 8. The indoor relative of the Air Raid, the Jordan 8 also had the distinction of being the second model featured in the storied Looney Tunes campaign. More than 20 years later, the shoe is appealing to a new generation through the introduction of Drake's "OVO" exclusives.
