| The Air Jordan XIV (14) was released in 1998/1999.
This was the very last Air Jordan model that Michael would sport in NBA before his retirement. On January 13, 1999,air jordan shoes, Michael announced his retirement from the NBA basketball for the second time. Retired in style,the design was inspired by Michael's car,retro jordans, the Ferrari 550 M, and was made by Tinker Hatfield together with Mark Smith. This was the first Air Jordan that would feature laces with metal tips. Something that both the XV's and XVI's designs also would use. The XIV's also began the trend of having a number of things that would count towards the model number of the shoe. On the XIV's each shoe had seven Jumpmen in/on a Ferrari-like shield. They could be found on the insole, sole,cheap jordans, back, 2 x lacetip and front. Counting them on both shoes makes it a total of 14 Jumpmen. Collectors classify the Air Jordan line by release year and model: Originals (OG), Retros (shoes that have been recreated for sale to the general public), Retro-pluses (Retro +, Air Jordans that are similar to the Original product, with more up-to-date changes), Player Exclusive (PE, Air Jordans that are exclusive to certain athletes in the realm of sports) and Samples. The Jordan Brand also produces a line of Team shoes, separate from the signature line of Air. |
