I am an anime fan and a basketball fan. When I heard that Nike Jordan series will have collaborations with Naruto to make 3 different models of Jordan Zion basketball shoes, I knew I had to get one for my collection.
In Canada, it is hard to get our hands on any kind of new release, but I was amazed that I could get my hands on one pair on the date of release.

The pair I got is the "Kyubi" model. It has the orange and yellow theme. The shoes have the Ninja patterns and dots. It also has the Air Jordan mark and ZW sign.

As you can see from the side, it has the "zap" lighting style design and dot design on the sides.

Inside the box, there is a small sticker.

Even the box is customized for the collaboration as you can see. It has the Naruto anime sign and leaves.
I think this is well done by Nike, and I hope they can release more collaborations with popular anime. (Few suggestions: Dragonball, One Piece, Super Mario, or even Streetfighter would be awesome!)
