The throwback sneaker drops on August 8.

The Jordan Zoom 92 is Nike’s love letter to ’90s basketball culture. The sneaker draws visual and functional inspiration from Nike’s most prominent drops from 1992 – the Air Jordan 7, Nike Air Max 180 and Nike Air Force 5. Its angular, layered upper is adapted from the AJ7, while its exposed forefoot Zoom Air units are inspired by the Air Max 180. As a final touch, the heel emblem is taken from the AF5. The end result is a sneaker that fully embodies the nostalgia and aesthetics of the era.
