A model from the earliest days of Jordan Brand, the Jordan Jumpman Pro will be back for another round this year.

Worn by players like Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett, the Jumpman Pro originally hit shelves in 1997. Following a retro run in 2008, the shoe returns in original and new colorways. The black and red pair was among the first to ever release, while the "Cement" and "Cool Grey" make-ups will be new additions to the lineup.

A sign of the times, the Jumpman Pro inherited some of its details from the Air Jordan 12 and was even comparable in terms of on-court performance. Whether or not the upcoming retro will be able to measure up to the original remains to be seen.

Look for the Jumpman Pro to release this spring and stick with us for a confirmed release date.
