Player Exclusive sneakers are commonplace today in the NBA, at least to some extent. But few players over the years have had as many incredible colorways as former (but we welcome a comeback) NBA star Ray Allen. Whether it’s the Air Jordan 11 he wore back in 2013 to celebrate “Two Rings” with the Miami Heat, or one of his countless special makeups from his years with the Milwaukee Bucks, Seattle Sonics, or Boston Celtics, you could argue that Ray Allen Jordan PEs are the absolute best of the best when it comes to player exclusives from Jordan Brand.
As Ray Allen turns 40 today, we decided to look back at some of our favorite player exclusives over the years, amassing 40 of the Jordans made with Sugar Ray in mind. Since Allen was one of the longest-running members of “Team Jordan” the 40 sneakers barely scratch the surface in Ray Allen’s Jordans. Shouts to Sneaker News, Jordan Brand, PE Vault, Dependable Jay, Phase2 and OSneaker for the photos.
