9. The XX8 Is The Most Tested Air Jordan Ever Created.
Tinker Hatfield and Air Jordan XX8 Co-Designer Josh Heard both stated that this was the most tested shoe they’ve ever created. Heard mentioned that a slew of 5-on-5 games in the Bo Jackson building on the Nike campus were a big part of the XX8’s wear testing. He let it be known that he approached each and every player multiple times with questions about irritation, hot spots and other things until they were 100% comfortable with it.
