Marco Belinelli – Jordan Nike Air Ship
In a surprise display of heat, Marco Belinelli laced up the black and red Nike Air Ship today. This “bred” colorway was the original “banned” shoe worn by Michael Jordan and not the Jordan 1. You can read more on this story HERE.
Marco got his pair from the Bologna, Italy retailer Back Door Bottega, which is the only known shop to be releasing the limited sneaker. Bologna is Belinelli’s hometown, so the hookup makes sense.
