Get grounded, stay grounded. The AJ XXXVIII is all about groundwork—we're talking about your running, your cutting, your turn-around jumpers—with low-to-the-court cushioning and a secure upper that helps support every move. It's also designed with sustainability in mind, with at least 20% recycled content by weight. So you can hit 'em with that windscreen-wiper fake and feel good about more than just sinking a bucket for your team.
Court mobility
It's the low-to-the-court Zoom Strobel Air unit and our signature Formula 23 foam that help you achieve those quick cuts, speedy sprints and all-over court control.
Strength + security
The embroidery in the upper is designed to help you feel extra secure while criss-crossing the court. Your skills, plus supportive, lightweight mesh? A winning combo.
Heritage details
Baked right into the shoe's design are shout-outs to MJ's legendary '93 season. Cross-hatches, chevrons and lines of ribbing on one shoe represent his points, assists and rebounds per game. Fabric details on the other nod to the 57-25 season record—and MJ's third consecutive championship.
Waste not, want not
The last thing we need is more waste, so the uppers and laces are made from at least 20% recycled content by weight. Plus, a special Move to Zero box gives you the bells and whistles of commemorative packaging without the extra rubbish.
