Air Jordan 19

Originally released in March of 2004, the Air Jordan 19 was the first model in the Air Jordan line to come to market after Michael Jordan's second and final retirement from the NBA. Designed by Tate Kuerbis and inspired by poisonous African snakes, the Jordan 19 features a Tech-Flex upper and Zoom Air cushioning, making it a rookie year-favorite long-time Jordan Brand athlete Carmelo Anthony. The Air Jordan 19 last retroed in January of 2019 in an OG “Flint” colorway to celebrate its 15th anniversary. Read the articles below to learn more about the cult-favorite Air Jordan sneaker.
