After signing with Jordan Brand in 2019, Rui Hachimura has seen his fair share of player exclusives. Lucky for us fans, a few of those have been released to the public in limited fashion. To date, Jordan Brand has released special editions of the Air Jordan 34, 35 and 36 representing Hachimura. Thanks to a recent leak, we now know that we can expect Rui's first Air Jordan Retro release to touch down soon.
The Air Jordan 8 Retro SE Rui comes in a twine, gym red, black and sesame colorway. Featuring premium suede and synthetic leather uppers with an aged wood print-like graphic on the overlays. Black accents the plastic strap tabs on the sides as well as the liner with hits of red adorning Hachimura’s “H” logo embroidered on the tongue as well as on the outsole. In addition to the kicks, these AJ 8's come with two sets of laces and custom packaging.
Look out for the Air Jordan 8 Retro SE "Rui Hachimura" to release on February 18th, 2022. It will be available at Nike as well as select Jordan Brand retailers both in-store and online. Retail is set at $225 and they will be available in men's sizing. Keep it locked to our Twitter andMobile App to stay up to date on future releases.
