14 Best Air Jordan 14s Of All Time

The Air Jordan 14 holds a significant place in sneaker history, both for its innovative design and its connection to a pivotal moment in basketball lore. Designed by the renowned Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 14 debuted in 1998, drawing inspiration from Michael Jordan’s love of luxury sports cars, specifically his Ferrari 550M. This influence is evident in the shoe’s sleek lines, the Ferrari-like shield logo, and the distinctive vent on the side, which mirrors the car’s design.

Michael Jordan famously wore the Air Jordan 14 during one of the most iconic moments in sports history: his final shot with the Chicago Bulls during the 1998 NBA Finals. This game-winning shot against the Utah Jazz secured the Bulls’ sixth championship and cemented Jordan’s legacy. The Air Jordan 14s on his feet during this moment became synonymous with his “Last Shot,” a moniker that the colorway itself would later adopt.

The Jordan 14 was also notable for its technical advancements. It featured low-profile Zoom Air units in both the forefoot and heel, providing responsive cushioning that was ahead of its time. The shoe also introduced unique details like the silver tips on the laces and the seven Jumpman logos on each pair, a nod to the shoe’s numerical designation.

The model was released in both mid and low versions, with five original colorways in 1998-1999 and additional retros in subsequent years. The “Last Shot” and “Black Toe” colorways, among others, have become highly sought after by collectors and basketball enthusiasts alike.
