Jordan was donning the new J Balvin x Air Jordan 3. The shoe stole the show and caught the eyes of many spectators and fans.
The relationship between the artist and the six-time champion is more than just business. After all, Balvin performed at Michael’s 60th birthday party earlier this year.
Jose Balvin’s hometown in Columbia, Medellin, inspired the shoe’s color. The shoe made a statement with its multi-color blocking and elephant prints on the heels and the toes.
