The
Air Jordan XVIII contained air vents, carbon comfort plate, hidden quick lace system, suede leather uppers and zoom air sole. Since the uppers were made out of suede, they did attract a lot of dust. On the
Air Jordan XVI and XVII, Jordan Brand would use the shoes for a modified model. The
Air Jordan XVIII used a XVIII.5 or 18.5, which ever way you wanted to write them. Pretty much nothing changed except the removal of the cover, and the jumpman was now on the side of the
jordan shoes, also the date 1985-2003 was put on.
