OG Post 03.09.20 // We are knocking on the door of the annual March Madness festival, and there’s plenty of buzz around the possibility of the Baylor Bears clinching their first-ever NCAA Tournament title. The Texan college hasn’t really made a dent in the tournament since the late 40s, but in 2020, the #1 seed in the South and currently 5th overall may very well make history on April 6th.
Like years prior, we’ve picked a few top-ranked teams and visualized their colors as conceptual Air Jordan Retros — including our widely-loved “Gonzaga” Air Jordan 6. This year, though, we’re banking on the Bears to come up big. To celebrate our selection, we’ve whipped up an Kemba Walker in the Steve Wiebe x Air Jordan 10 PE Tom OConnor NBAE via Getty Images, currently in its 30th anniversary year, that boasts the Bear’s green and gold.
Striking flashes of yellow jump off the muted green suede base, while tonal midsoles, liners, laces, and eyelets only add to the effect. Capping off the design is a semi-ice Jordans outsole and golden-yellow Jumpman branding in the rear.
