Rejoice Jordan fans! One of the league's most prolific pure shooters finally gets his PE at retail.
In celebration of Ray Allen — Jordan Brand athlete and one of the NBA's most revered shooters from deep — Jordan is finally delivering a retail release of the Air Jordan 7 'Bucks' PE.
At every stop in Ray Allen's career — Milwaukee Bucks, Seattle Supersonics, Boston Celtics, Miami Heat — anticipation built around not only his silky smooth jumper, but what special edition PE sneakers he'd lace up on court. Each PE was crafted in the team's signature colours, and this 'Bucks' edition calls back to the 90's and early 00's hues where Ray first began to make his mark on the league.
The Details
Also known by his on-screen alias, Jesus Shuttlesworth, copping one of Ray Allen's PEs at retail has never been anything more than a fantasy — until now. Jordan has spared no detail in bringing back the nostalgic tones of the sweet-shooting two guard's game.
Jumping straight into the away-colours, a premium black nubuck serves as the base, with Milwaukee's rich purple, grey and forest green hues appearing on the midsole, heel and collar. Classic geometric lines bring Bucks styling at the neoprene tongue and bootie for a snug, secure fit. Allen's signature PE logo and signature appear on the in-sole — finished in true Ray Allen fashion.
Look for this re-worked piece of nostalgia to pull up at JD Sports on the 1st of June.
