Tate Kuerbis, backed by a joint effort with his senior team member, got his inspiration for the Air Jordan Shoes XIX from the black mamba – the most dangerous snake on earth. Since Michael Jordan retired his jersey again, younger players were the ones who promoted the new line in the hard court. What separates this line from other Air Jordan sneakers is the revolutionary tech-flex, an industrial braided sleeving usually used in the automotive industry. It is a material that stretches comfortably but has enough support capabilities. Besides the tech-flex, the Air Jordan Shoes XIX also has a double stack Air Sole unit which makes them extremely comfortable to wear. It also has a patent leather toe box, plastic lace locks and the Jumpman logo on both the heel and midfoot. The full length Zoom Air Unit common in Air Jordan shoes is also incorporated in this line.
