JORDAN BRAND HONORS NBA ALL-STAR WEEKEND WITH THIS TWO-TONED AIR JORDAN 1 LOW SE

There’s still some sorting out to do for NBA All-Star Weekend 2021 such as securing a date and a venue, but one thing that is for certain is that Jordan Brand has intentions to celebrate the hoops-filled weekend with a commemorative Air Jordan 1 Low SE. While presented with a darker-toned theme, the offering possesses interesting details found throughout its upper half. The primary hue here is a stark black as it colors in the base layer’s main components such as the underlays and overlays, the former seeing through to smooth leathers while the latter is more playful and arrives with glossy finishes. White trimming is also highlighted on these kicks through the exposed stitchings that border the Swooshes, the circular Jumpman embellishments on the tongues, as well as the rear end’s ball-and-wings logo embroidery. Another detail to point out includes the medial side’s Swooshes which have been decorated with tonal diagonal dotted patterns that run its length. To accompany this layer, the Jumpman design team welcomes in a clean white midsole and pairs it above an outsole that is swamped in all black. If you’re looking to cop, these will be releasing come January 31 for ¥849 (approx. $131 USD) via Nike China. A stateside drop has not been confirmed yet.

THE AIR JORDAN 35 SURFACES IN AN ICONIC COLORWAY

Highsnobiety aims to provide our readers with the latest updates in the sneaker world. However, we cannot verify the reliability of any unauthorized leaks or rumors unless this information is provided directly by the brands themselves. While continuing to expand the Air Jordan 35 catalog, Nike hopes to bring added attention to the silhouette by giving it an OG colorway. Expected to release early next year, we see the performance sneaker done up in the beloved "Fire Red" scheme. It's fitting that Nike apply the "Fire Red" colorway to the Air Jordan 35, as the sneaker draws heavily from the Air Jordan 5. Comparatively, the "Fire Red" Jordan 35 is undeniably similar to the original Jordan 5 colorway, except it doesn't feature any black detailing on the midsole. The standout design element is still in play, however, as the reflective silver tongue remains the focal point of the colorway. Images of the "Fire Red" Air Jordan 35 have surfaced as Nike re-released the "Fire Red" Air Jordan 5 earlier this year. It remains to be seen when the Jordan 35 iteration will arrive, although reports are suggesting a launch will take place in early 2021. As always, be sure to check back with us for confirmation.
