Air Jordan‘s 23rd anniversary is reintroducing one of the most famous colorways in the Jordan Brand archives with the Air Jordan Hare. The release date is May 16th, 2015. Prior to the Space Jam film, Air Jordan Hare was Jordan’s seventh signature shoe. It was the first collaboration with the Warner Brother Studio’s infamous Bugs Bunny, who helped sell the shoe across numerous ad platforms. A subtle white and grey base allow for the vibrant splashes of color on the neoprene mesh tongue to stand out. Rumor has it that the array of green and orange was created to honor Bugs’ carrot addiction while a more traditional Chicago ‘True Red’ stands out on the outsole and Jumpman branding. The White/True Red-Light Silver-Tourmaline Air Jordan 7 Retro Hare is priced at $190.
