One of baseball’s beloved players recently hung up his iconic pinstriped jersey for good — after 20 years of being an asset to the Bronx Bombers, Derek Jeter has called it quits. The public received news of his unexpected departure with great displeasure, as he was the ambassador of the Yankees, and one of baseball’s biggest names. Several of his sponsors bid him a grand farewell – Nike, Gatorade and New Era to name a few. But one send-off in particular has inspired this week’s PairXWear.
As a long-time member of team Jordan Brand, Derek Jeter was honored with two sets of dope sneakers for his retirement. The more popular of the two, the ‘Air Jordan 1 Retro High Jeter’, was released exclusively at Footaction’s ‘Flight 23′ shop last week and sold out instantly. Hopefully you were able to snag a pair, because you’re going to be sick when you look at the resale prices on eBay. For those fortunate souls, take a look at some gear to match your exlusive pair of kicks.
