Ok, we’ve all heard about the 3rd pair of shoes that was suppose to be included in the Jordan (DMP) Defining Moments Package. It was The Converse Pro Leather All-Star’s that was suppose to be the 3rd shoe of the DMP pack and to retail for $500 as a whole 3-pack.
As a brief history about these shoes- Michael Jordan wore these during his times in the NCAA with the University of North Carolina (UNC) - Tarheels. The back of the shoes portray the game winning shot that was made by Jordan at the last seconds to win his first championship ever, thus to bet called “The Defining Moments Package”.
Today, here on Lockeroomkicks, today you will see that there were prototype’s that were made prior to the sample-production run of the pair pictured above.
First up is a prior prototype of the White/University Blue-Gold Pair. This pair features a white silhouette of Jordan’s jumpshot as compared to the pair above which has a University Blue jumpshot picture. This pair also has a smaller font on the patch on the Tongue.
Next up is the ultra rare pair of the sample Converse’s in Black/University Blue-Gold colorway, unseen by hardly anyone on this thing we call the “INTERNET”. To my brief knowledge from official sources, this pair is only limited to 2-3 pairs. to define this pair, rare is not even a word….

Here is a showcase of several Game Shoes - XX3’s; that were acquired from the Player’s following the Game.
1st up we have a Home XX3’s made for “Tyreke Evans” aka “Too Easy”, along with his Game-Used uniform, a very rare set to acquire. Also, Tyreke’s pair is Deadstock (meaning Brand New), Tyreke was the only one, not being fortunate enough to wear his custom made pair in the game due to the fact he wears a size 14 and the shoes were made in a size 12.5
