The Air
Jordan 20 was released on February 19, 2005. The Air Jordan 20
celebrated the 20th model and 20th year of Air Jordan shoes as well
as Jordan's legacy on and off the court.
Tinker's Back!
Tinker Hatfield was brought back to do what he does best - create
the BEST Air Jordan shoes. The most noticeable feature of the Jordan
20 is the laser etched design on the lace cover depicting various
past achievements of Michael Jordan and Air Jordan's.
But when the world's most famous athlete becomes even remotely
involved in any form of sporting or business activity, it's fodder
for much speculation. Reports slowly began to appear on the web that
Jordan was putting together an AMA road racing team.
Jordan owns several sports motorcycles and met Stewart through a
mutual friend in the Chicago area and decided to help the successful
CCS rider. The Air Jordan XX is set to debut in early 2005, packaged
in a black & red box with a flip top in the middle which is secured
by Velcro. The side of box is expected to be embossed with the word
JORDAN. This model should feature an special 20th Anniversary
Edition Coaster. The Jordan 20 was the first almost Air-less Jordan.
You will not find a single zoom air unit in the Air Jordan 20.
Instead there are 20 specially tuned phylon columns/pods
strategically located around the outsole reinforced by an internal
shank plate. The rear pod has a specially modified air unit
incorporated into it. The hyped cushioning system is called
INDEPENDENT PODULAR SUSPENSION (IPS). Quite simply, it's a hybrid
shox system minus the columns and pebax dispersion plate. It works
very well during wear tests. It's low profile gives it the
responsiveness edge over the Jordan 19. However the traction is not
as great as it can be. The Jordan 20 was released in 3 color ways as
well as 3 regional color ways.

About every Jordan 10 fan was pulling their hair out by the time
that Nike released retro Jordan 10's. May 3, 2005 was the launch
date which was about 10 years after they were last sold. The Jordan
10's were the oldest shoes to be retroed older than the Air Jordan
13's.
