Back In Time: DeFY New York Takes A Looks Back At Brand Jordan 2001-2002

Man, 2001. It really seems like yesterday yet we are a decade + removed from such a crazy year. I was jumping from my sophomore year in College into my Junior year and we were fresh off the mega return of the Jordan XI’s. At that point the anticipation was for the True Blue III’s, Black Cement III’s (with Nike Air of course), Jordan I’s and the new XVI. Just thinking back reminds you of all that has changed since that year; the fashion, the music, sports, the world in general. In 2001 we saw MJ’s first appearance on the Wizards, Jeter was just 26, Roy Jones Jr was 45-1, our retro’s still came with retro cards and the XVI was the latest and greatest. On to 2002 and much was the same but this time a 200 dollar Jordan shoe complete in a briefcase. Throw on some baggy jeans, dust off your M&N throwback and scroll the fliks above as DeFY New York Re-live’s Brand Jordan 2001-2002.
