The
Air Jordan 21 (XX1 or XXI) - Varsity Red /
Metallic Silver - Black were released on February 18, 2006, and retailed
for $180. They feature an all red suede upper with black and metallic silver
accents. The
Air
Jordan 21 (XXI) was designed by D?Wayne Edwards and is modeled after the
Bentley Continental GT coupe. There is some resemblance to the car, presumably
the car?s ?matrix? front grill and the front of the shoe. Forefoot
breathe-ability features are combined with a newly engineered durable textile
for support and durability in key performance areas. An evolution of the I.P.S
(Independent Podular Suspension)? can be seen on these from the
Air
Jordan 20 (XX), and now include interchangeable cushioning technology with a
customizable heel zoom pillar or heel encapsulated pillar. The carbon fiber
shank plate offers midfoot and arch support, which adds to the comfort these
provide, which is what they were truly built for. The I.P.S. technology is
integrated with the outsole through raised herringbone pods for traction in
strategic performance areas. This new innovative outsole pattern offers
multi-directional traction. These are one of the louder colorways of the
Air
Jordan 21 (XXI), and are adored by fanatics.
