Released February 1993
Nine years of refinement produces the 1993 Air Jordan shoe. Michael helps design the first Air Jordan that he never wears in competition. Michael announces he will turn his talents to the sport of baseball. Doing what he's always done - playing for the love of the game.
On October 6th 1993, Jordan gave the basketball world a shock when he announced his retirement from the NBA. This was just one day before Training Camp and it was not what anyone had expected at this time. The greatest basketball player of all time retiring at the age of 30. A decision probably affected by the fact that his father was murdered in North Carolina in the summer of 1993.

The shoe being released was plain and sturdy and was the first model that Michael did not wear in an NBA seasonal game (due to the retirement). The sole had lots of details and a large 23 was stiched at the back of the shoe.
