Once again, Jordan brand is giving NikeTalk members the opportunity to appear in the Holla Back section of the upcoming issue of Brand Jordan Magazine.
This year, its all about that loving care.
Most sneakers serve primarily to protect our feet. They grind across jagged terrain, they endure the elements, theyre scuffed, theyre stained, theyre stretched. Theyre not something to preserve, let alone something to conserve. When the situation calls to tread through mud, we dont think twice. We dont pause to consider the shoes feelings. When they can sustain no further abuse, theyre sloughed aside unceremoniously relegated to the deepest recesses of a closet, garage, or garbage can. A six-year old sneaker isnt something many of us would wish to be downwind of, much less something wed display with pride.
For most of us here, Air Jordans arent just another shoe. Air Jordans are cherished, coddled, painstakingly preserved and proudly presented. Many of us wont wear our Jordans to trudge through snow or slog through rain. Im certain there are many among us who would rather walk barefoot through the mud than subject their Jordans to the indignity. Some Air Jordans are revered as sculpture, too special to be worn, too pristine to taint.
Jordan brand wants to know, how do you treat your Air Jordans?
Specifically:
- How do you store or display your Jordans?
- How do you keep them looking their best year after year?
Do you baby your Air Jordans?
Do you despise dirt? Cringe at the sight of creases?
Do you have any tricks of the trade youd like to share with your fellow Jordan fans?
If so, please share your stories with us.
Be sure to include your email address along with your submissions, so that Jordan brand can contact you if your story is selected.
Just as last year, submissions may also be directed to [email protected]

For those curious, the next issue of Brand Jordan magazine is scheduled to arrive in late October or early November.
