Amongst many things, Michael Jordan is known for his extensive denim collection — albeit ridiculed. His footwear line, though, has managed to avoid the wide-legged inspiration for the most part, with only a handful of denim-donning Jordan sneakers ever making it to market. Now, after two Levi’s collaborations (2008 and 2018), and last year’s Air Jordan 6, the staple fabric returns, and of course, it sports a very-MJ finish: Acid Wash.
Shared by @solebyJC, the first look at the Air Jordan 1 Low “Washed Denim” shows a white leather-based sneaker paired with rich Royal Blue acid-dipped denim overlays. From the first image, it does appear that the collar and lower lacestay overlays arrive with the denim’s underside face up, while tongues appear to ditch the standard nylon in favor of the fabric. Liners, laces, and outsoles all arrive in a dark navy, and the pair is complete with white midsoles.
Grab a first look at the Air Jordan 1 Low “Washed Denim” here below, and you can expect pairs to roll out at select Jumpman cohorts this Summer. As always, keep your eyes locked on our official Twitter accountfor further updates.
