Jordan 2010 Pantone Collection

Jordan 2010 Pantone Collection

The Air Jordan Pantone Collection debuted at the 2010 World Basketball Festival. The blue color throughout the collection is one labeled by color giant Pantone, which releases design colors every year. The collection's blue for 2010 was a throwback to the University of North Carolina and commemorates Michael's athletic dedication. Dubbed "Pantone 284," the light dusty blue was on the entire new collection. The shoes are intricately designed with varying mixes of fabric and textured leather types. The leather is pieced on the sneakers and laser-etched in a crawling lava-like pattern on many areas. The Jumpman logo, number 23, "Jordan," and other markers appear in different pieces in the collection in a shiny white.
