Sadly, it’s not going to be Space Jam 2.
Jordan Brand apparently has a lot in store for its 30th anniversary. According to Nike, one of the pleasant surprises of this year is that they’ll once again be teaming up with Bugs Bunny to release Hare Jordan products.
The timing couldn’t be more appropriate considering that the last Hare Jordan collaboration came about 23 years ago and served as the inspiration for the greatest sports movie ever made – Space Jam.
“Each is an iconic figure and legend in his own right, but together Bugs Bunny and Michael Jordan are an unbeatable combination on and off the court,” said Brad Globe, President, Warner Bros. Consumer Products. “We are excited to partner with Jordan Brand to reintroduce Hare Jordan to an entirely new generation of fans with this limited-edition collection that includes a mix of classic and cutting-edge styles.”
Nike states that the Hare Jordan products will include apparel and shoes in both original and new models.
So far, the two releases which have been rumored for 2015 based on some leaked shots are the Air Jordan 7 “Hare” and the Air Jordan 1 Mid “Hare”. However, neither of these have been confirmed by Jordan Brand.
Hopefully, the reunion between Bugs and MJ will lead to a general release of these at the very least.
