The Air Jordan 16 (XVI) Original (OG) - White / Metallic
Navy (3/4 High Men) were released on March 24, 2001, and
retailed for $160. They feature a white leather upper with
an extremely noticeable blue patent leather toe. The
Jordan shroud features a white leather design as well as
a navy mesh on the back. The shorud is basically a lace
covering, which hides the laces, and actually seems to
give the shoe a nicer, more casual look, which means you
can wear them for different occasions. The Air Jordan 16
(XVI) combines aspects from previous Air Jordans. For
example, you can see the patent leather located on the
toe from the Air Jordan 11 (XI), the ribbed leather
gaiter similar to the uppers of the Air Jordan 14 (XIV).
Also, the 3/4 midcut from the Air Jordan 3 (III) (hence the
name 3/4 High), and the mesh uppers from the Air Jordan 5 (V).
The shoe also features a clear strip vertically down the
heel counter, as well as a clear outsole. The sole seems
to be a problem among critics, as they feel there is not
enough rubber that, which would explain the lack of traction
within the shoe.
