When we brought you word of Jordan Brand’s plans to release a 16.5, we also informed you of an anticipated release month of somewhere close to November, 2009. For all of you who enthusiastically await one of the cleanest “.5” Jordan designs ever, the first colorway of the 16.5 is now available for purchase in mid-October for a retail price of $124.99. Borrorwing cues from the AJ XVI such as its sole and patent leather toe box, the 16.5 also subtly borrows things from the AJ XVII such as the laces area and “peel off” sticker that comes on the heel of the shoe. If you’re looking for something founded on two amazing Air Jordan silhouettes but all-the-while new as well, this Air Jordan 16.5 might be just what you’re looking for.
