Jordan Brand’s Air Jordan 38 continues its playful exploration of heritage, this time revisiting a childhood favourite – the iconic “Bugs Bunny” colourway from the 1993 Air Jordan 8. Arriving in Spring 2024, these sneakers are a vibrant reimagining of a classic that promises to jump onto sneakerheads’ must-have lists with its carrot-infused charm.
Gone are the bulky straps and textures of the AJ8, replaced by the sleek lines and streamlined construction of the 38. But don’t mistake evolution for abandonment. The Bugs Bunny spirit shines through in every detail, starting with the faithful colour palette. A crisp white base sets the stage for pops of black on the liner and tongue, reminiscent of Bugs’ tuxedo collar. But the star of the show is the midsole. It’s a mesmerising swirl of white, red and grey, echoing the playful pattern that adorned the original Bugs Bunny” AJ8 like a field of scattered carrots.

With a lightweight, breathable upper and responsive cushioning, these sneakers are as versatile as the Looney Tunes rabbit himself, ready to hop from city streets to basketball courts with ease.
