Air Jordan 15 (XV)

Air Jordan 15 was released in 1999-2000 but was never worn by Jordan himself in an NBA game.The design of the Air Jordan XV Shoe originated from the futuristic X-15 fighter jet developed by NASA during the 1950's. The tongue of the shoe stuck out parallel to the ground. The Air Jordan 15 also had a red stripe that went up the back of the shoe and bottom of the heel. This stripe caused many to ponder if the inspiration for this feature of the Air Jordan 15 came from the signature stripe on Prada shoes. The shoes also had an original woven upper, but many thought this was also inspired by Italian designers.The Air Jordan 15 was indeed the last shoe that Tinker Hatfield made at the time.
