The Air Jordan 8 Doernbecher is set to release on Sunday, November 23rd, 2014 at select Jordan Brand retailers. This year’s designer for the Air Jordan 8 was Caden Lampert. Lampert was diagnosed with Guillain-Barré syndrome, which is a life-threatening autoimmune disease that affects the body’s immune system as it begins to attack the body itself.
His decision to design the Air Jordan 8 reflects to his passion for the game of basketball. Some of the unique features to his model features flames on the outsole and his own basketball jersey number, 14, on the custom glow-in-the-dark, speckled upper design. The shoe also shares is love for music on the boom box on the inside of the tonuge, while the other bears the name of his brother Ryland, who balloted cancer as a child. To complete the shoe, Caden couldn’t leave out his other brothers Blake and Ryland, as both names are seen on the foot straps.
