Product Description
The Jordan 8 Retro Doernbecher is a special-edition sneaker designed as part of the Doernbecher Freestyle program. This program pairs young patients from the Doernbecher Children's Hospital with Nike designers, creating unique and personalized sneakers that are sold to raise funds for the hospital.
The Air Jordan 8 Retro Doernbecher features a durable leather and synthetic upper, with a mid-top design that provides ample support for the ankle. The shoe's midsole includes a full-length Air-Sole unit for cushioning and support, making it a comfortable choice for everyday wear. The shoe comes in a Hyper Blue colorway with Electro Orange and black accents.
We think that the notable feature of the Jordan 8 Retro Doernbecher is the messaging on the shoe. The word "Brave" features on the ankle while the message "Rock on" is on the side. The strap also includes the word "Believe". These messages add a personal touch to the sneaker’s design, reminding wearers to stay strong and persevere through difficult times. The shoe was released on November 23rd, 2014, at a retail price of $190.
