The Nike Air Jordan 2 was first released in 1986 as a collaboration between Michael Jordan and Nike designers Bruce Kilgore and Peter Moore. The AJ2 aimed for a different approach than the Air Jordan 1, targeting customers beyond the basketball court, though this was only partially successful at the time. Following various collaborations in recent years with brands like Off-White, Union, Maison Chateau Rouge, and Just Don, the Air Jordan 2's standing in streetwear has grown. This has led to the re-release of its quintessential OG colorway.
