It was Mike’s ol’ trusty color blocking circa 2015/16, but since the explosion caused by the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Shattered Backboard” and follow-up Royal, Pine Green, and Bred offerings, the “Color Toe” blocking has been rarely seen. We got a teaser look at a “Yellow Toe” pair back in 2019 that — unfortunately — never eventuated, but since then, it vanished. A strange move considering you could literally interchange any color accent for an instant banger. Perhaps, for this reason, Jordan Brand is saving the blocking for a rainy day. We still want more, though, and this Air Jordan 1 High “Mocha Toe” might be a good start.
The below colorway was just one of many mock-ups of the blocking that we’ve made over the years, including Freshwater, Football Grey, and Bordeaux — all of which we’ll roll out on our Concepts Page over the coming weeks. Arguably an instant classic, the pair brings back that Travis Scott aesthetic seen on the Mocha Highs, this time, though, opting for sail leathers instead of white for a more fitting finish.
Stay tuned for a bevy of more “Color Toe” colorways coming soon.
