The Air Jordan 35 is a silhouette that was newly introduced in 2020. Unlike every other shoe on this list, most people aren’t paying above retail for it, or eagerly staring at their SNKRS app anticipating the next Air Jordan 35 drop. Yet, the Air Jordan legacy is so important that every year, even if only for a day, we all care about the latest model being added to the catalog. What the 35 lacks in mainstream appeal, it makes up for on the basketball court. There’s a reason NBA superstars like Jayson Tatum and Zion Williamson lace them up every night. They’re among the best, if not the best, performance basketball sneakers on the market today, just as a shoe bearing Michael Jordan’s name should be. Hype might not be the goal, but Jordan Brand has still tried to give fans of the Air Jordan 5-inspired design some more limited offerings along the way. Fragment’s Hiroshi Fujiwara released his own collab back in October. Williamson’s “Bayou Boys” theme was also given a sequel colorway that appeared to be well-received. Performance basketball sneakers might not hold the same stake in the casual market as they once did, but the Air Jordan 35 proves that if a shoe is made well and serves its intended purpose, sometimes that’s all that matters
