Air Jordan 22. Designer Dwayne Edwards drew inspiration from the F-22 Raptor fighter jet. The Air Jordan 22 was released on March 24, 2007.
Designer D’Wayne Edwards clearly had an eye on the VI while creating his first Jordan, with the cut and subtle “3” design both being borrowed from the fifteen-year-old sneaker. Far from simply being a rehash of old Jordans, however, the XXI broke new ground with its replaceable heel pillars, allowing the wearer to customise the cushioning by switching between the Zoom Air and Air-Sole pods.
