There was David Robinson and Penny Hardaway, too. And lest we forget\u2014Charles Barkley. MJ may have had all his cake and ate it too. Sir Charles didn&#8217;t have any cake but just ate some anyway. He was one of the NBA&#8217;s greatest rebounders, and indubitably its greatest gourmand.<\/p>\n<p>Jokes aside. His most popular signature shoe is set to make another comeback and like its namesake, it won&#8217;t be ignored. Last seen in 2020, the Nike Air Max CB 94, in its &#8220;Triple Black&#8221; iteration has been confirmed to return during the holiday season.<\/p>\n<p>Pardon the segue but the misnomer is worth addressing: it&#8217;s officially called the Nike Air Max\u00b2 CB &#8217;94. A superscript 2, squared for the Air Max\u00b2 technology it was built upon. But it&#8217;s been relegated to Air Max2 CB &#8217;94 on the last batch of retros until presently at Air Max CB 94. Whichever works for Google&#8217;s SEO, right?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, new and familiar colorways have been surfacing since the tail-end of last year and this monochromatic iteration is the latest announced.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike its color palette, the shoe is built with a mix of materials. Nubuck forms the base layer with suede overlays engulfing it like Bane&#8217;s mask. From the toe cap to the perforated quarters, all the way up to the ankle collar. A singular blue hit on the outsole underfoot breaks the entire uniformity of the color blocking. There in its most conspicuous is the Swoosh framed adjacent to the visible air window.<\/p>\n<p>No firm release date has been confirmed yet but they&#8217;re expected to carry an RRP of US$170. Find them on Nike&#8217;s brick-and-click sometime in December.<\/p>\n<p>In other news under the Swoosh&#8217;s umbrella, have a look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.com\/en\/magazine\/2023\/01\/31\/for-freedom-liberte-joins-the-nike-terminator-low-lineup\/?slide=right\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nike Terminator Low \u201cLibert\u00e9\u201d<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/snkrdunk_int\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22285 size-full alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp\" alt=\"Magazine-Bottom-Banner\" width=\"970\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy.webp 970w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-300x93.webp 300w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-768x238.webp 768w, https:\/\/snkrdunk.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com\/en\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/20154621\/Magazine-Bottom-Banner-copy-282x87.webp 282w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Jordan wasn&#8217;t the only one in Nike&#8217;s roster that had their own signature during the &#8217;90s.
