However, Flash was apart of Jordan Brand&#8217;s plans long before the Jordan Fly Wade was unleashed. Jordan Brand officially signed Dwyane Wade to their roster in July of 2009. At the time, many wondered whether or not Dywane Wade would wear a signature sneaker, carry the legacy of MJ&#8217;s signature line or simply wear team shoes and PEs (see our Does Dwyane Wade fit into the Signature Shoe Model for Jordan Brand? article). Since then, we have seen Wade have his hands (feet, rather) in all of the aforementioned sectors of Jordan Brand. Flash started off wearing a number of then-new models such as the Jordan 16.5 and the Air Jordan Alpha 1 before JB began lacing him up in Air Jordan 12 PEs. Additionally, Jordan Brand appointed Dwyane Wade to be the lead endorser of the MJ&#8217;s two latest signatures, the Air Jordan 2010 and the Air Jordan 2011. How do you think the Dwyane Wade\/Jordan Brand partnership has worked out so far?<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> Jordan Fly Wade Performance Review | Kicks On Court: Dwyane Wade&#8217;s Greatest Sneakers of 2009-2010 | 15 Sneakers Possibilities for Dwyane Wade this Season<\/p>\n<h3>Air Jordan Retros<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_173086\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-173086\" style=\"width: 400px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-173086\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dwyane Wade rocking the &quot;Cool Grey&quot;
