I’m biased because I’m from NC but Jordan’s are literally the product of a North Carolina legend. They are southern by design, quite literally lol Like.
I don’t wear sneakers so idk but New York be trying to claim everything like the great migration from the south wasn’t a thing lol
Also, some things New York claims are actually bi-products of Caribbean immigrants or Southern Black folks who migrated north but...

(+ have skin in this game. I was born in NY to two New Yorkers. I left NYC when I was a kid but all of my family is there. I live there now.)
Like, many New Yorkers are one or two generations removed from being southern or midwestern slandering the south 😂

Whole Grandma, aunties + sometimes even mama from the south lol Because: great migration
New Yorkers can’t have it both ways. When someone is born but not raised in New York + claims it, that’s not cool. It’s “Nah, you not really from here”

But when it’s Michael Jordan that’s okay? lol NY wants to claim him even tho he moved south before he was even a toddler? lol
You know how Mase is synonymous with Harlem + his first album is titled Harlem World but he was born in Jacksonville Florida + didn’t move to Harlem until he was 7? Yea.
