The Nike Air Python was first released in 1987 after the introduction of the Air Jordan II in the previous year. They share similar designs and the only difference is that the other one used snakeskin leather for its tongue and uppers. This Air Python is not at all shy with using this kind of material as its snake skin wraps around the heel and placed on top of the upper quarter span. It is made out of premium quality materials that are mixed with a design that is totally jawdropping.
In fact, back then, this shoe surely turned heads during the time of Nike Air Force and the rising of the Nike Flight. But not like the Air Jordan line, this Nike Air Python really stood out from the entire pack. This also has never seen a retro and is headed its way to celebrate its 23 years in existence.
