Jordan 16 was released on February 17, 2001 - Michael Jordan's 38th birthday. It looked like Jordan Brand had found that if Jordan had worn certain pairs of Jordan Shoes on the NBA court or not didn't prevent them from appearing on the hot list of Nike Jordan Headers. So, Air Jordan 16 hit the shelves next to the Air Jordan 15. This shoe was the first Air Jordans to not be designed by Tinker Hatfield since the Air Jordan 3 (III). But some elements from previous Air Jordan Shoes are still be used in the design like the clear rubber sole from Air Jordan 5, Air Jordan 6 and Air Jordan 11 plus the patent leather from Air Jordan XI. What made the Air Jordan 16 unique and stylish was a brand new gaiter that covered the shoe could be removed to give a brand new look.
Retro Jordan 16 was released in 2008 with a Countdown Package including Air Jordan VII Retro and Air Jordan XVI in Black / Varsity Red.
