Air Jordan 15 (XV) SE - (White / Metallic Silver)

The Air Jordan 15 was released in 1999-2000 and retailed for $150.00, which was indeed the last shoe that Tinker Hatfield made at the time. This was the first Jordan shoe after Jordan's retirement. The design of the Air Jordan 15 Shoes originated from the futuristic X-15 fighter jet developed by NASA during the 1950's. The tongue of the jordan sneaker stuck out parallel to the ground. Many wondered if this was to resemble Jordan's famous facial expression while soaring through the air. The Jordan 15 also had a red stripe that went up the back of the air jordan shoe and bottom of the heel. This stripe caused many to ponder if the inspiration for this feature of the Jordan 15 Shoes came from the signature stripe on Prada shoes. The jordans shoes also had an "original" woven upper, but many thought this was also inspired by Italian designers. Nike Air Jordan 15 also features the hidden quick-lace system, seamless dynamic-fit sleeve, Kevlar mesh uppers, Zoom Air sole, rubber herringbone pods, injected TPR external heel counter, and a breathable leather pattern.
