Sculpture Inspires the Air Jordan 7 Retro OC Miro Olympic

When the Air Jordan 7 was first released in 1992, it sold for $125. This iconic sneaker now has a resale value averaging 5-10 times its initial retail price—making it a favorite among sneakerheads.

The initial AJ 7 model was conceived by designer Tinker Hatfield for Jordan to wear in the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain, alongside fellow Dream Team members Magic Johnson, Karl Malone, Charles Barkley and Patrick Ewing.

During the team's gold medal run, Jordan wore an Air Jordan VII original model, which featured his Olympic number 9 in place of the number 23, MJ's original NBA jersey number.

Air Jordan VII's Long Line of Retro Collections

In 2002, Nike launched the Air Jordan 7 Retro for a short-lived release, a decade after the original silhouette's debut. It was offered in Charcoal, an original colorway, and French Blue, the first new color since the OG collection's initial release.

Two years later, the brand brought back the 7 Retro in a limited release. Then, in 2006, another 7 Retro collection launched, with Nike expanding the line to six colorways, adding two LS versions, followed by the reissue of the original Cardinal colorway and an exclusive women's style. This release included the much sought-after Chambray colorway.

In 2008, the brand launched the exclusive Jordan VII Retro "Miro" for its Olympic Celebration collection. The Metallic Gold/Red colorway was inspired by the famous Spanish painter Joan Miro. This shoe continues to be one of the rarest Air Jordan 7s on the market and bears an artistic homage to the glory days of the shoe brand's genesis moment.

Jordan 7 Retro OC Miro Olympic 2008

The Miro Olympic colorway of the Air Jordan 7 was inspired by the Dona i Ocell sculpture in Barcelona. A black base creates a suede underlay, and white overlays are coated in a unique red, blue, green, and yellow design. The laces feature a striped yellow, red, green, and black pattern, and the shoe's lateral side displays a metallic gold Jordan Jumpman symbol. White continues on the midsole, and two red and yellow arch accents detail the midsole before transitioning to a black and translucent outer sole. The translucent section reveals sketches of country flags below the tread.
