Jordan Brand designer Tate Kuerbis took the leading role in constructing the Jordan 18. Borrowing influence from the lines seen on a Lamborghini Murcielago, a carbon fiber accent is featured along on the midsole, with a rubber heel wrap included that mimics the look of race car driving shoes. Bold stitching above the midsole recalls the stitching pattern seen on Italian dress shoes, while the upper itself features a seamless leather application with an additional leather panel that covers the quick-lace system. Jordan laced up this colorway during his last season with the Washington Wizards.
