As part of Nike's 'Trash Talk' initiative that underscores the importance of using recycled materials and scraps from the cutting room floor, the Air Jordan 7 Retro follows suit with its distinctive triangular pattern throughout the upper, aligning it with other releases in the program. Additionally, the J2K Jordans, available in a reverse Natural/Filbert colorway, cleverly repurpose surplus materials from the factories, demonstrating Nike's commitment to sustainability.
