Will the Air Jordan XVI ever properly join the ranks of retro Jordans? There was clearly a plan to have it do so, as we’ve seen a handful of samples labeled for Fall 2012 floating around over the past half year. This pair is one of them, a colorway which kind of has that “Concord” appeal thanks to the combination of black patent leather and white mesh. Unfortunately it wasn’t meant to be the, as the Air Jordan XVI has definitely been left in the vaults for this go-round. See more on the Air Jordan XVI sample in black/gym red/white/metallic silver after the jump and then peep the price from oregonsole on eBay.
