The U.S. Open is one of the oldest and most prestigious tournaments in golf. This new U.S. Open-inspired Nike Jordan Retro 6 Golf Shoe is a shoe celebrating the City of Angels and its history.
The silver overlays are a tribute to Tinseltown’s VIP vibes while spray-paint-can-like lace tips nod to the gritty and grimy graffiti that cover various parts of the city.
Michael Jordan’s German Air Jordan 6 sports car served as the inspiration for the shoe to promote speed and class. A molded heel tab is on the back of the shoe, something Jordan himself required back in ’91 so that it wouldn’t hit his Achilles tendon when putting it on.
There are certain features that stay in line with the retro-looking silhouette. The two holes in the tongue are an ode to the original Air Jordan 5. The shoe features and outsole add grip to give enough stability for the course.
The Retro 6 shoe is water-repellent and lightweight for any condition and all-day comfort.
These shoes are available at Nike.com for $219.99.
