For the first time ever, the Air Jordan VIII got a low-top makeover during its first retro run in 2003 - in an original colorway no less. A unique thing about these is the trademark straps have been altered a bit. Instead of both straps being able to be undone, only one is able to be on the low-top version of the Air Jordan 8 Retro. This Air Jordan 8(VIII) Low Retro Black/True Red - Del Sol has been modeled after its predecessor the Playoff" Air Jordan VIII. It features the original colors of black, true red and Del sol. It appears in a low-cut design, but still looks like the previous Air Jordan VIII without becoming too distorted."
