The Air Jordan 7 (VII) Original (OG) - Bordeaux (Black / Light Graphite - Bordeaux) were released in February of 1991 and retailed for $125. They seem, at first glance, to feature a simple black and grey upper which is bland, but a closer look reveals a very colorful tongue, as well as bright and vibrant accents. The back of the heel features a V- Shaped emblem with hie Airness’ number on it (23), as well as an assortment of the same accent colors on the shoe’s outsole. The Air Jordan 7 (VII) features a design similar to the Nike Huarache technology to create a shoe that really sticks to your foot. The shoe’s design was influenced by an African Art poster that Jordan brand mastermind Tinker Hatfield bought in Portland.
