Given Michael Jordan’s stature as being widely considered the greatest basketball player of all time, his own shoe and apparel company, the Jordan Brand, has continued to find ways to pay homage to His Airness and what he has done throughout his career.

Just recently, the brand announced that they will be releasing a special colorway of the Air Jordan 6, as a tribute to the NBA legend's memorable SNL appearance back in 1991. He wore the famous quilted olive green satin jacket on the show, and by September 1st, there will be shoes to match it.

Jordan Brand's official website has already put up photos of the shoes, and its release is highly anticipated by Michael Jordan's fans as well as sneakerheads around the world.

The official name of the shoes will be the “Air Jordan 6 Retro Pinnacle” and it will be sold at a retail price of $225, according to a piece made by Brandon Richard of Sole Collector.

There are also rumors swirling that the brand has designed its own version of the iconic jacket, but only for its CEO and owner. It remains to be seen how the public will patronize the specially-made sneakers, but akin to how all Air Jordans have sold in the past, these babies are sure to send buyers on a frenzy as it honors a memorable event in Michael Jordan’s storied career.
