Jordan Shine luxury trainer

published 23 September 2014

Think basketball shoes and you may conjure up an image of an oversized high top with plastic trim, appropriate only for the court or hip hop videos. The Jordan Shine takes that picture and buffs it with a special formula of off-court excellence.

A vast expanse of white leather, given a perforated texture with woven strips of yet more premium cow hide, we doubt you'd want to take this Jordan Shine model anywhere near a basketball court.

With innards finished in vachetta tan, these astonishingly pure trainer are set to hit Jordan stockists this Saturday with a price tag around £250. Money well spent for a shoe you'll probably only wear on clear, sunny days, with no chance of rain. Indoors.
