Air Jordan VII "Bordeaux" Retro Drops This April (FINALLY)

Nice!  I've been waiting for these to drop since their original release in 1992.  This is one of the few Jordan's left that hasn't been retroed in it's original colorway but it looks like the wait will end this April.

It's called the "Bordeaux" because of it's dark wine coloring that makes up a big part of the tongue, back and sole of the shoe.  These were the first Air Jordan VII's to release and although Jordan didn't actually wear them in any games, it was still one of the most recognized of this particular silhouette. 

I had the "True Red" colorway myself (now known as the Raptors) and rocked them on my Freshman basketball team and they were one of the most comfortable hoops shoes I have ever worn in my life.  No joke.  I always wanted the other colorways, especially the "Bordeauxs" but I was onlt allowed one pair back in the day.  I am going to try and cop as many of these as I can, now that I an afford a few.  Dopeness! 



You might recognize these from the original Air Jordan commercial featuring Bugs Bunny that everyone now knows as "Hare Jordan".  This was before Space Jam but it's probably what helped create the idea and concept for the movie.  It's definitely one of my favorite commercials from back in the day.
