Yesterday, Michael Jordan and his wife Yvette welcomed twins<\/a>. Congrats to MJ and Yvette on the birth of their daughters.\u00a0As fans of MJ and of course his kicks, we’ve seen some memorable sets of two release from his footwear empire. Take a look back at some of our favorite two-in-one releases from JB in this archived feature focused on the launch of the “Golden Moments” Package.<\/em><\/p>\n

This weekend’s Air Jordan “Golden Moments” Package<\/strong> looks to be an instant classic, but where does it rank among drops of the same standard? We count down the ten best 2-in-1 package releases from Jordan Brand so far.<\/p>\n

10. Air Jordan 10\/13 Countdown Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> January 19, 2008
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

The Countdown Pack series began with a bang, boxing together two OG makeups that were years without retro but far from forgotten. Both the “Shadow” 10s and “He Got Game” 13s did a stellar job of tiptoeing the era divide seen in the series, offering two colorways with mass appeal and on court co-sign.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

9. Air Jordan 7 60+ DMP<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> August 22, 2009
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

The whole 60+ theme was more or less a reach. Honoring Michael Jordan’s legacy as a prolific scorer was of course well deserved, but tying it in with lost games confused his priorities. Never the less, this package proved underrated with time. After hitting clearance racks for less than $100, perceived value has since shifted with the charcoal-touched “Raptors” growing in favor and the Penny-inspired makeup fitting right in with today’s trends.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

8. Air Jordan 1 “Old Love\/New Love”<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> April 21, 2007
\nPrice:<\/strong> $200<\/p>\n

A lifelong romance with basketball split time with a motorcycle fling on the “Old Love\/New Love” Package. While most of their moments were shared on shelves, this tandem cracks the list on the strength of the “Black Toes” alone. Oh yeah, a $200 price tag doesn’t hurt either.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

7. Air Jordan 6\/17 Countdown Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> May 24, 2008
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

Were these models so good together that they spawned a hybrid<\/a>? While there’s no telling how cozy the 6s and 17s got in that package, this coupling ranks among the best of its kind. Both lace-locked silos proved strong, with the “Carmines” driving the demand.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

6. Air Jordan 1 60+ Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> July 11, 2009
\nPrice:<\/strong> $225<\/p>\n

Revisiting the Celtics\/Bulls rivalry, this Air Jordan 1 tandem remained old school and classic. Jumpman branding and lackluster leather turned away some, but both makeups still turn heads today.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

5. Air Jordan 6\/7 “Golden Moments” Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> August 18, 2012
\nPrice:<\/strong> $350<\/p>\n

DMP regret and the recent retro rush probably lend more to demand than any Olympic ties. With that said, the colorways are on point, proving more fashion friendly and of the times than just about any other non-OG pairing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

4. Air Jordan 6 “Infrared” Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> June 19, 2010
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

Two OGs in one box? Tough to beat. Slight variances in color could’ve stacked the odds against this double-drop, but OG nostalgia outshined any varsity blues on this red-hot release.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

3. Air Jordan 5 “Toro Bravo” Pack<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> May 30, 2009
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

Unreliant on hardwood accomplishments, the Air Jordan 5 “Toro Bravo” Package was hot off colorways. The red suede proved even flashier than the 3M makeup, broadening the range for what was acceptable on a retro. Two titles made for one forgettable story, but still came off stronger than conjured connections seen on other thematic drops.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2. Air Jordan 11\/12 CDP<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> December 20, 2008
\nPrice:<\/strong> $310<\/p>\n

Jordan Brand saved the best for last with the 11\/12 CDP. The “Playoff” 11s proved the seamless transition from Black\/Red holiday retros (a four year run, only interrupted by the “Fire Red” 5s in 2006) to the AJ 11 anticipation we see today. Truth be told, this was the only Countdown Package where everyone felt like they were getting two shoes they wanted. Even so, quality concerns kept these two OG titans from taking the number one spot.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1. Air Jordan 6\/11 Defining Moments Package<\/h2>\n

Released:<\/strong> January 28, 2006
\nPrice:<\/strong> $295<\/p>\n

The package that started it all ends this list. Coinciding with the start of two championship runs, the original DMP drop was nostalgic in silos, elegant in styling, and limited in numbers. This duo set the precedent for packages to follow and proved that retro+ colorways could have class.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
