Now their image is as ubiquitous as the term 'basketball sneakers' but don't think that any part of the Jordan 7 Retro is par for the course. Cooked up back in '92 by design doctor Tinker Hatfield, if you really look at the 7s, especially in this 'Cardinal' colorway, you'll realize it's as fresh now as it was on release day. From its neoprene bootie borrowed from the Huarache to the perforated upper and geometric embellishments, the 7 are in a league of their own.
