Air Jordan 39 Sol

DESCRIPTION
Air Jordan 39 Sol Shoes: Behind every detail of the Air Jordan XXXIX is a craft-driven obsession to help players change direction effectively and responsively. The shoe’s upper, an embroidered textile, features a computational design inspired by footwear tests from the Nike Sport Research Lab (NSRL). After breaking down the mechanics of the cross-step countless times through high-speed cameras, Jordan Brand designers created a unique pattern shaped by the flex zones of the shoe as it bends from changes in direction. Natural leather overlays appear on the paneling to help contain the forefoot in high-stress areas. The clean herringbone traction pattern on the outsole is tuned to those same NSRL wear tests, reinforced in the areas that need the most bite when changing direction. The height of the tongue and the beveled contours of the heel were exactingly tested and measured to help prevent chafing at the ankle. No detail was spared in creating the Air Jordan XXXIX — which isn’t a surprise, considering who the feedback is coming from.
