The highly anticipated Air Jordan Retro II (white and silver) will finally hit stores tomorrow (Feb 27). The shoe, originally set to release in January has moved release dates once or twice, and collectors have been on the edge trying to get their hands on these.
The reflective 3M material, very popular from the AJ IX, adds a little more flavor to the simple white and silver colorway. They also chose to use a little bit of patent leather on the wings up to the eyelets. I love my patent leather as much as the next person, simply because of the AJ XI, however white patent leather only stays white for so long. After awhile, yellowing starts to occur. That's the only downfall to this colorway. I love it, but how long will it look good. There's not much you can do to prevent the yellowing, unless you stick the shoe in a zip-lock bag and dead stock them, some discoloration will occur.
All in all though, a very hot sneaker. The release is a little more exclusive than some of the more recent releases, so make sure your sneaker shop is getting them. The 3M material makes this classic, a collector's must-have.
