A blend of Jordan's basketball tradition and innovation, the Jordan Zoom '92, is inspired by elements from three classics you might not even come to your mind: the Air Jordan VII, the Nike Air Max 180 and the Nike Air Force 5.

The Zoom '92 includes both visual and functional details of the three shoes, including the different layers of upper material inspired by the Air Jordan 7, as well as the "9" logo on the heel. In terms of technological highlights, Zoom cushioning is at the forefront of the two Nike shoes and the current Nike basketball design language — Air Max 180 and Nike Air Force 5.

"When you think back to that energy from Barcelona in 1992, people all over the world could watch the dream and the shoes gave them a piece of it," says Gentry Humphrey, VP of Jordan Brand Footwear.
