Air Jordan 10: The Story of MJ's Comeback Sneaker

The Air Jordan 10 is a peculiar shoe in the line of Air Jordan sneakers. For starters, it was designed during a time when Michael Jordan was playing baseball and not basketball. But it was also MJ's comeback sneaker. Coming out of retirement in 1995, Michael Jordan was ready to take the court once again and Jordan brand made sure to equip him with a fine piece of footwear. Enter the Air Jordan 10. In this video, we'll be taking a look at the sneaker's history, design elements and some our favorite colorways. Enjoy! And also, Merry Christmas!

Jordan 10 is the most comfortable sneaker I've ever worn of all the sneakers I have ever worn for my wide feet. The lacing system is absolutely top notch. The design is streamlined and is underrated in a fashion context. The list of accomplishments on the sole is pretty neat. I bought my very first pair of Jordan retro in 2016. It was the Jordan 10 NYC. I love the dark dominant colorway because I knew I would wear them in everyday context and not on the court anymore (since I sucked anyways lol). But I will always love MJ and his sneakers (personal favorites are the 6 black infrared and 10s dark colors).

[@miahmiah4581]

Steel 10s where the first Jordan's I ever wore, currently only pair I own is the Seattle. They are actually pretty comfy, great model.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Love the Seattles. Those are probably my favorite from the city pack.

[@standingmaximumverticaljump]

Not the Seattle but I had the NYC I purchased in 2016. I agree with the level of comfort of the Jordan 10. The ankle padding is great. The lacing system is very streamlined and smooth (rounded laces). and the cushioning was more than adequate.

[@IAmInfinitus208]

Can't wait for them next year!

[@mastermindmartialarts]

10"s were the first pair of Jordan's I ever owned. I saved up money to buy them for $125 in 1995! I had the dark grey ones. I think they are a criminally underrated shoe in the Jordan line.

[@wcllyd11]

Love the Jordan 10s. Wish this shoe would release more often.

Hey Nguyen, that means the world brother. Thank you so much

[@prestontubbs5668]

The AJ10s are truly one of Favorite Silhouettes and also gets over looked because some of the earlier popular retros before it, the 10s will always have ties to the Number 45.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

I feel like they’ll have their time in the hype spotlight soon. Only a matter of time. Fantastic silhouette

[@bball3048mmfr]

I have been an NBA/Jordan/Sneaker fan since 1991 and I haven't purchased a real Jordan retro in 2016. It was the Jordan 10 NYC (6:12). I loved it while it lasted. I wore it enough that before it got too worn out, I gave them away at the local Goodwill store. In 2024 I am hoping for another dark dominant colored version of the Jordan 10. And I will buy a new pair if it comes out again.

[@Horrorking181]

The retro 8 and 10s and 9s are my favorite Jordans ever this episode was super dope as hell

[@jon7035]

I had the Steels back in 94 when I was in high school . They were my 2nd pair of Jordans. loved them.

[@bryangaytan9777]

the 10s in my opinion are the shoes that made me fall in love with Jordans, my first love was baseball and when Jordan went back I followed him to basketball thats when I became a basketball fan and wanting Jordans

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Yeah they're an underrated silhouette in the line of Js'. One of the nicest looking in my opinion. That's awesome that you lived through that era. Thanks for watching Bryan!

Super easy to put on & take off, these really grew on me after owning a pair.

[@jGal3rd]

This is the first Jordan sneaker I remember from when I was growing up. Steel 10's... some kids on an opposing basketball team had them. But I was rocking the Air Penny 1 at the time. Good memories! The SoleFly 10's are super clean as well.

[@briznazty]

I think the "94 Beyond" is everything Michael Jordan will accomplish in the future, whether it's baseball or golf or in this case coming back to the league.

[@seauenhauteur01]

My favorite colorways = the Double Nickel (Chicago) and the Dark Shadow. He wore the Dark Shadow in only 4 games (first round vs the Hornets). Underrated colorway. Black with dark gray and a hint of red.

[@jordachejordan90]

I love the 10s. Most comfortable Jordans of all-time to me. Fits like a glove. Better design than the 9s and more practical than the 11s.

My favorite Jordan of all time simple clean classic

[@NachoAverageFinds]

It is classy and clean. That's why I love it

[@cactusjack2264]

Jordan 10’s are so simple, they’re almost too simple except the soles with the colored lines on the bottom which is honestly the main thing I like about this model.

[@greggsbeatmaker1010]

Great video! I’ve got Lady Liberty’s 10s 👊

[@XanderZ0ne]

My first pair of Jordan's was as a kid back in 06 or 07 was a pair of Jordan 4 which I recently found it out it was called black cat that lasted for 4 years before being damaged and can't wear them anymore. Around 2016 I won a brand new pair of double nickels for very cheap at a local auction site and I still wear it today with little to no scuffs because I clean them after wearing ( also because I seldom wear them lmao) .There is something about the 10 that drew me in. I am quite indifferent to the Jordan brand but the 4 and the 10 somehow the way they look and the silhouette I really like.

[@detailsmove]

imo the Jordan 10 is one of the best silhouettes from the entire collection

[@jrbudoybudoy]

Jordan 10's are the first pair of Js that I really wanted. I love the details in the shoe.

[@KevinWei24]

Not the most popular but I love the Jordan 10. I owned the NYC that came out in 2016. (6:12) I love the lacing system.

[@City-iD]

It’s crazy how Nike managed to mess up so many of Tinker’s designs. The sketch looks so much better than an actual shoe. Jordan 10 could have been a much bigger silhouette for the AJ lineup if they would’ve made this sneaker the way Tinker actually intended it to be.

[@supersaiyangodvegtio9590]

Ighhh

[@axgreenious9400]

It's because Phil Knight exploited slaves to make his shoes. You can't rationalize Knight's or Jordan's reasons to commit human right's violations, so they could make an "epic" sneaker. Additionally, Nike brand and the people who buy their shoes, are supporting the CCP's ability to commit genocide in China. The leadership in China/CCP are as bad as Adolf Hitler.

[@drexsavage6296]

Awesome video! Great job!

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Thanks Drex

[@CArsonVevo]

Another great video guys! Being a 80’s baby sneaker head, I remember when these came out and I HAD to have them mainly for the achievements on the sole. The “Charlotte Pack” is my favorite being not only that im from that area, but the fact that the upper has an off-white pearly color that you can really see when light reflects off of them🔥

[@Gojo1911]

The 10 is def. underrated. I like the clean design of the AJ10

[@wendelllabandilo2155]

I got the Orlando colorway and they're nice. Great content, as always. 🙏

[@NachoAverageFinds]

That’s a great colorway. Thank you man!!

[@GizmoKiDd]

Once again another great video my favorite are the steel 10s and Seattle 10s

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Thanks Gizmo! Love the Seattle 10s

[@DanielSzilagyi]

I also didn't know they planned to stop after the 10's! funny now looking back how many models came out and just how big the brand truly is. I do like the shape and colours of the 10 but for me personally I tend to stay more within the early models from AJ1-5 or so

[@NachoAverageFinds]

For basketball yeah it was going to stop at the 10. They probably would’ve made baseball shoes haah

[@3rDegreeBernz]

Always love the 10s. It's 2s, 9s and 10s for me. They're the only ones I'm not sick of... yet.

[@systemsless]

I remember hating the 10s back in 2011/12 cuz of the horn collar design. But now it’s probably in the top 5 jordan

[@1hundredz]

I still have 2 pairs of 2005 jordan 10 blackouts. My favorites 10.

[@JulianPhotofit]

One of my favorite pair. 👍🏽

[@NachoAverageFinds]

So underrated

[@s4mp_founder]

Currently my favorite Jordan outside of the brand returning all the original classic edition signatures alike their original silhouettes or original retro debuts. 4, 5, 6. They release the original Steel Grey X shoe with the top cap.

[@benjamink7105]

I had a nice run of buying 9, 10, and 11 near each release (white/black/red - white/steel - Concord). Had J's in high school all the way out the door. I also made a lot of Big Macs. A lot of seeing friends on the funner side of the drive thru window in the summertime lmao (to keep from crying). Anyway, the white/steel 10s I wore longer than any other pair I've ever owned. Why? When they got beat up sufficiently, I took the laces out. Any time I'd run to the store or do whatever I'd slip them on because of the elastic bands that cover the tongue. They really fit a lot more like a knit running shoe in that way, oddly considering the differing materials. But the elastic holds your foot in place like flyknit, almost. On top of that, the sole looks really bulky but it never felt that way to me. It's got a full length airsole so it's actually pretty comfortable, or at least it was in the decade following 1995. : ) I've not owned a pair since, maybe it's time. I always wanted those shadows. Oh no! I'm supposed to be retired...closet empty....ahhhhh....

Only have the Chicago 10s. The 10s always have been dope to me. In my opinion, 94 beyond just simply means thoes are my attributes to the game in 10 years and just wait to see what happens next. The 10s is also where I stop..just nostalgia of being in 10th grade when these released and witnessing Jordans return. The 11s though the newest just never hit me the way the original 10 Jordans do.

[@bcranford714]

The 10s are my favorite Jordan’s

[@rickiebradshaw3695]

I have a pair of the Chicago over Broadway 10's. Very comfortable shoe! The Air Jordan 10 is a slept on shoe. Something you can hoop in and style at the same time. I honestly find these a little more comfortable than the 11s. As crazy as that sounds. I know the 11s are the Holy Grail of the retro Jordan line, But I had a good friend of mine said the same thing. I wouldn't go as far as what he said but in his mind he said " The only reason why the 11s is popular is because they were in space jam. It's overrated shoe."now I do love the 11s, but I feel like for comfortability if I'm going out of town or out of state,just for me, the 10s do it for me.
