This Jordan Heir Commemorates Paolo Banchero's Seattle Rotary AAU Team
Jordan Brand is currently occupied with its mainline Air Jordan series, but it's also making time for performance-driven product like the Jordan Heir.
Developed as a budget-friendly basketball shoe rooted in Michael Jordan's winning legacy, the Heir is still in the beginning stages of its release cycle. Styles like a newly-surfaced 'Blue Gaze/Volt/White/Black' option, however, suggest the silhouette forms part of the brand's plans for at least 2025.
The bold-colored sneaker is captivating on its own, but a detail on the back of the tongue cements the pair as special. A logo dedicated to the Seattle Rotary Select Basketball program claims this real estate, nodding to Paolo Banchero's AAU team. As one of the faces of Jordan Brand's future, the Orlando Magic forward has a promising NBA career ahead of him–but it all started in Washington with the Boys & Girls Club squad. It's possible other athletes sponsored by the Jumpman might get their own Jordan Heirs, but that's yet to be seen.
The Seattle Rotary Jordans are set to hit Nike.com and other retailers throughout Spring 2025. The shoes are priced at $110.
