The Air Jordan XV (15) was released in 1999/2000. Reggie Miller wore it during the 2000 NBA finals.This was the first shoe after Michael’s retirement. The design of the XV’s originated from the air craft X-15 which was developed by NASA during the 1950s and was, to say the least, a bit radical.
The tongue of the shoe was sticking out in a style that very much made the owners’ thoughts go directly to Michael himself. The sides of the shoe were in a woven kevlar. The Jordan 15’s were the first Air Jordan’s to be negatively received in a while (the last being the Air Jordan 2’s), because the quality on the Jordan shoes was bad.
