A Closer Look At The Design
Bull Air’s design incorporates many nostalgic elements to evoke the look of the original Gameboy released back in 1989, from actual buttons on the heel and beneath the ankle flap to pixelated panels on the sides of the shoe that mimic the console’s screen. It even has a serrated heel resembling the handheld console’s back cover. And all of this on the classic Air Jordan 1 silhouette launched in 1985.
What We Like About The Sneakers
The design is a delightful and imaginative recreation of the classic Gameboy with so many different details to explore. It is sure to bring a smile to the face of any gamer or anyone who appreciates the retro portable gadget. But it also doesn’t hurt that the sneakers are built on Michael Jordan’s first signature shoe model.
