Nike Air Jordan 8-White-Medium Grey-Olive
1992-1993 Air Jordan VIII 8 - This season had it's fair share of controversy. To set the setting for this season, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen had both played for the Olympic team during the off season in Barcelona, Spain. They were tired, ill rested and under scurinty from the media. there was a published report that accused Michael Jordan of being a ball hog, a terrible team mate and the "real" coach of the Chicago Bulls (calling the shots when it counted). In this book, the author claimed that Michael Jordan explicitly told his fellow team mates not to pass the ball to team mate Bill Cartwright during the final minutes of games because he was not a capable player. As you can imagine, this would assumingly put Bill Cartwright and Michael Jordan in a funny position and potentially cause rifts in the dressing room.
In addition to this adversity and fatigue, the shoes themselves also created quite the alarm among sneaker fans. The nike air jordan 8's were as original as they come, they feature two straps that go over the laces on the shoe, and they also feature vibrant colors on very visable parts of the shoes. The air jordan 7's featured some amount of neon bright colors, however the 8's featured the vibrant colors in prominent areas. The two straps over the laces were also quite strange at the time, but they proved to be very stylish and supportive (unless you had wide feet, then they could cause constraint).
