In the mid-90s, Nike initially introduced its 'City Pack' collections, which consisted of distinctive colorways dedicated to selected cities and inspired by their sports heritage. The first Air Jordan 10 'City Pack' made its debut in 1995, followed by a second retro series in 2016, featuring customized styles for New York, Los Angeles, Charlotte, and Chicago. The Air Jordan 10 Retro 'Los Angeles' draws inspiration from the Pacific Ocean and showcases an outsole engraved with significant moments from Michael Jordan's career. Similarly to the other models in the collection, the ankle of this shoe is embroidered with the city designation ('LA' in this case), replacing the traditional '23/45' symbol.
