The
Air Jordans 17 was released February 9, 2002. This was the first shoe released since Jordans 2nd return to the NBA playing for the Washington Wizards. The
Air Jordans 17 design was said to be inspired by three things;the fine details from an Aston Martin, the smooth lines and flow of a jazz solo and the long Air Jordan history of innovations in style Well, if the
Air Jordans 16 were equipped with a gaiter/shroud that was removable and that would cover almost more than half of the shoe, the
Air Jordans 17 were no worse. With a removable midfoot cover you were once again given the power to choose whether or not the laces should be visible!
