Air Jordan 14: the Ferrari-inspired Jordan sneaker

Air Jordan 14: the sneaker of the 1998 Last Shot

Unveiled in 1998, the Air Jordan 14 was designed by Tinker Hatfield working closely with Michael Jordan. A car enthusiast, MJ owned a Ferrari 550 Maranello at the time, and it became the starting point for the design. The shoe made history on 14 June 1998: in Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz, Jordan hit the decisive jumper, the famous Last Shot, and won his sixth title with the Chicago Bulls. It remains one of the most celebrated moments in basketball history, Air Jordan 14 on his feet.

Ferrari design: seven Jumpman logos and Zoom Air

Everything about the Air Jordan 14 nods to the sports car. The side badge borrows the shape of the Ferrari shield, with the Jumpman in place of the prancing horse, while the outsole takes cues from racing tyres. The vents on the midsole echo the air intakes of a race car and help keep the foot ventilated. The low, sleek silhouette feels light, powered by Zoom Air units in the forefoot and heel. A cult detail: seven Jumpman logos per shoe, fourteen per pair, a wink to the model number.

Iconic Air Jordan 14 colourways: Black Toe and Mowalola

The Black Toe colourway opened the story in the late 90s, followed by the black and red Last Shot from that legendary game, then versions such as Indiglo and Oxidized Green. In 2014 a red Ferrari edition paid direct tribute to the shoe's inspiration. At noirfonce.eu you will find the Air Jordan 14 Retro Black Toe, faithful to the original, and the collaboration with London designer Mowalola: a Burnt Red version with a seamless suede upper, metallic gold finishes and her signature on the lower panels.

How to style Air Jordan 14 sneakers

Sportier and lower than the early Jordans, the Air Jordan 14 brings energy to any outfit. The white, black and red Black Toe pairs easily with straight-leg jeans, premium joggers or shorts in summer. Its sports-car lines also work with technical pieces such as a windbreaker or a quilted jacket. The bolder Mowalola Burnt Red becomes the centrepiece of a darker look: black trousers, leather or earthy tones bring out its burnt red suede and gold details. A sneaker that turns a simple fit into a statement.
