Inspired by Michael Jordan's alma mater, the Off-White x Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG 'UNC' carries a classic two-tone composition, filtered through Virgil Abloh's unique design prism. The process involves taking a white leather base with dark powder blue overlays and adding embellishments that convey an expressive, handmade quality. They include detached Wings, a floating Swoosh, and lines of text on the medial-side quarter panel delineating the taxonomy of the shoe.
Air Jordan 1
The Air Jordan 1 sneakers are a legendary silhouette in the world of footwear, first released in 1985 as Michael Jordan's debut signature shoe. Designed by Peter Moore, they feature a high-top design with premium leather construction, bold colorways, and the iconic Nike Swoosh on the side. The Wings logo on the ankle and the Air-cushioned sole add both style and comfort.
These sneakers have transcended basketball, becoming a fashion staple in streetwear and sneaker culture. Notable for their rebellious origins (like the 'Bred' colorway, which defied NBA uniform rules), the Air Jordan 1 remains highly sought after in various colorways and collaborations.
With timeless appeal and modern iterations, the Air Jordan 1 continues to be a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts alike, blending performance with iconic style.
