This Multi-Color Air Jordan 1 Low Reimagines Sashiko Tradition

Jordan Brand has long paid homage to the ancient Japanese embroidery technique of Sashiko, most notably with special editions of Air Jordan 4s and inclusion in the prestigious "World Make" collection. Now, Jordan Brand is taking a creative leap forward with this Multi-Color Air Jordan 1 Low—a modern reimagining that infuses the Sashiko tradition with pastel hues and luxurious leathers.

Rather than adhering strictly to the traditional Sasiko textiles and colors, this latest iteration disrupts convention by featuring a smooth and tumble leather upper that replaces the textile's intricacy with a sleek, contemporary finish. The subdued yet impactful pastel color palette breathes new life into the iconic silhouette, making it both a statement piece and a versatile addition to any sneaker collection.

The attention to detail doesn't stop at the material choice. The iconic Wings logo adorning the heel and the Jumpman silhouette gracing the tongue are meticulously stitched, underscoring the brand's commitment to craftsmanship. Adding another layer of uniqueness, the insoles are designed with a bespoke graphic saturated with Jordan insignias, making each step you take a walk down memory lane of the brand's rich history.

The Multi-Color Air Jordan 1 Low serves as a perfect synthesis of old and new, traditional and modern; Not only does it put a contemporary twist on a time-tested practice, but it also presents an archival model in a fresh, new, modern feel.
