The Air Jordan 2 Retro Deconstructed ‘Thunder Blue’ sneaker gets a stripped-down remodel of the classic in a soft premium suede fabrication. Originally released in 1986, the Air Jordan 2 built a bridge between luxury and basketball long before the concept of luxury sneakers reached the mainstream, boasting exotic leather and Italian craftsmanship. The sneaker’s iconic silhouette is accented with a suede Thunder Blue suede upper with tonal laces and a clean white rubber sole.
