The Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Method Of Make” Mimics Luxury Handbag Construction

Jordan Brand has once again pushed the boundaries of sneaker design, transforming the Air Jordan 1 Low OG for women into a luxurious piece that blurs the lines between high-fashion footwear and high-end leather goods. This transformation results in a sneaker that stands out not just for its iconic silhouette but also for its premium, handbag-inspired aesthetics.

The canvas for this artistic endeavor is the Air Jordan 1 Low OG, reimagined in a vibrant shade that immediately calls to mind the signature green of Bottega Venetta. This bold color makes the sneaker an instant eye-catcher, a statement piece that transcends traditional sneaker culture. Part of the "Method Of Make" series, this release follows in the footsteps of the Air Jordan 1 High MM, which similarly drew inspiration from the world of luxury goods.

In keeping with the 1985 model's classic shape, the sneaker incorporates significant alterations that align with the "Method Of Make" ethos. One of the most striking changes is transforming the iconic Swoosh logo into a slimline golden accessory reminiscent of the lavish embellishments on high-priced handbags. Similarly, the tongue label eschews the classic nylon for a decorative, gold-plated AIR JORDAN tag, further elevating the sneaker's luxurious appeal.

The Wings logo also gives a high-end makeover, reinterpreted as a chiseled metal emblem, adding to the shoe's premium feel. The upper itself boasts a unique texture akin to Prada's famed Saffiano leather. It is complete with exposed, thick stitching that seamlessly integrates various parts of the sneaker, including the lateral toe, medial quarter, and heel.

The Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Method Of Make” is a marvel of design, rich in exquisite details that make it more than just a sneaker.
