Trophy Room x Air Jordan 7 VII Olympics New Sheriff In Town 2022 Release
Written by SOURCE on September 16, 2022
Bouncing back from the controversial “Freeze Out” Air Jordan 1, Marcus Jordan’s Trophy Room returns with its long-awaited follow-up collaboration, a fresh take on the “Olympic” Air Jordan 7.
The Trophy Room 7 is a reimagination of Michael Jordan’s USA-themed sneakers for the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona. Red and sail suede panels share the upper, with navy landing on the tongue, laces, and inner bootie. Gold hardware represents the Dream Team’s dominant run to the gold medal and the colors of the Olympic rings are displayed on heel pull-tab.
As usual, Marcus is adding another layer to his project via storytelling. Details on the shoe indicate that this collaboration is tied to the Dream Team’s famous pre-Olympic scrimmage in Monte Carlo, when Jordan’s White Team took on Magic Johnson’s Blue Team. As the story is told, Jordan led a late comeback effort to carry his team to victory over Johnson and the blue. His message to Johnson and Larry Bird following the scrimmage? “There’s a new sheriff in town,” a message that is partially stitched along the back of the tongue. The date of June 22, 1992 is noted along the inner collar and on the box, even though the date of the scrimmage is said to have taken place on July 22.
