The outsole has circular traction inspired by the Air Jordan 1.The message moulded into the rubber tells the story of Mike’s back-garden battles with older brother Larry.”45/2″ nods to the number they both wore until they ended up on the same team.That’s how MJ became #23, by splitting 45 in half and saying if he could be half as great as Larry, he’d be all right. “SWING FOR THE FENCE” on the sockliner quotes a letter from Larry.The quote speaks to MJ’s attitude in life and specifically references the brothers’ back-garden battles.
