Air Jordan 17

The Air Jordan 17 was released February 9, 2002. This was the first shoe released since Jordan’s 2nd return to the NBA playing for the Washington Wizards. The first color to release matched their jersey. Jordan is BACK! For a while, those who talked about a 3rd coming of retro jordan were thought to be as crazy as the people who think Elvis, Tupac, and Biggie are still alive. Air Jordan proved all the skeptics wrong on September 25, 2001 when he announced he would return to the NBA and suit up as a Washington Wizard.
