Jordan Brand’s latest exploration of ‘What If?’ scenarios in its iconic flagship line imagines the introduction of infrared a year later than it occurred.

This summer marks the debut of the “White Infrared” Air Jordan 7, a shoe that very clearly borrows its look from the original Air Jordan 6 colorway that Michael Jordan wore for home games during the 1990-1991 NBA season. It’s pretty much a straightforward interpretation—a white leather upper, black tongue and pull-tab, vibrant pops of infrared, and even a blue-tinted translucent sole.  The “White Infrared” Air Jordan 6, of course, was one of the sneakers Jordan wore en route to winning his first NBA Championship.
