The Air Jordan 8 Retro Take Flight 2017 Colorway

The AJ VIII features a two cross-strap design around the laces, which distinguishes it from other Air Jordan models and retains its legacy as a signature '90s sneaker style. The silhouette is renowned for its iconic chenille tongue graphic design.

When the Jordan 8 Retro Low was introduced in 2003, it featured a low-top silhouette and one cross-strap detail around the laces. Otherwise, it maintained the Jordan 8's original design integrity.

History of Air Jordan 8

The Air Jordan 8 holds a lot of sentimental significance to sneakerheads and collectors. It first released in 1993—the year of MJ's "three-peat" championship season. The AJ XIII is also distinguished for being the last shoe Michael Jordan wore before his first retirement.

Created by the legendary designer Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 8 initially released at a retail price of $125. Highly sought-after models that carry significant resale values include the Air Jordan 8 Retro DB Doernbecher colorway ($400 to $1,200), the OVO collection ($350 to $500) and the coveted Air Jordan 8 PE series that can fetch anywhere from 2,500 to over $10,000.

Other noteworthy, collectable styles include the Jordan 8 Retro in Champagne and Bugs Bunny colorways, which resale for around $225 to $500 and $200 to $450, respectively.

Jordan 8 Retro Take Flight 2017

The Jordan Brand took off in 2017 with the Air Jordan 8 Retro release of the Take Flight colorway. Also known by the name Sequoia, this silhouette features a green-based Sequoia color on the upper, coating the laces, toe top, side panels, cross strap, ankle cuff, heel tab, inner sock liner, and heel. Black comes into play on the cross strap's clasp, on the sneaker's side panel overlays, on the midsole, outer sole, tongue, and chenille fabric that outlines the tongue's orange Jumpman logo. Orange returns to the sneaker on its outer sole, where it runs through the tread like a vein. The Take Flight colorway took flight on January 28th of 2017.
