The Air Jordan 7 Sneaker Gets a New Cardinal Coloway

— August 9, 2022 — Lifestyle
Jordan Brand unveils a new tonal iteration of the Air Jordan 7 sneaker model with the latest Cardinal colorway to detail the silhouette. The shoes are ready to join the fall season this time around and also comes just in time to celebrate the silhouette's 30th annviersary.

The sneaker boasts a retro design language and has a white leather material that makes up most of the upper. This is marked with touches of perforations to add some breathability to the shoe as the Cardinal Red is applied in order to add contrast. Red can be seen detailing the midsole section, the branding by the heel, and trimmings as a golden Chutney hue makes up the lateral heel tab and embroidered Jumpman emblem.
