As MJ went after his third straight championship, along came another new Air Jordan model: the Air Jordan VIII. These were very unique at their time, as sneakers with straps were just starting to make their rounds. This shoe features criss-cross velcro straps that you can buckle or unbuckle to your preference. Also this colorway features a camouflage like pattern on the heel. The Air Jordan Original VIII(8) Bugs Bunny White/Black - True Red received its nickname not only from the commercials, but the straps. Many have said the straps resemble Bunny ears.
