It is no secret that most of the up-and-coming basketball players pattern their games after the one and only Michael Jordan. The same ‘role model’ quality can be associated with Jordan Brand as well.<\/p>\n

Believe it or not, there has been many sneakers that were patterned after classic, timeless sneakers that were created years ago. With that said, our Snkrs Day staff has compiled a list of sneakers from various brands that used a specific Jordan model and colorway for the inspiration of their shoe. For example, the Nike Dunk Low SB Supreme is obviously one of the better Dunk colorways ever made; however, do you know what sneaker inspired its creation?<\/p>\n
