Jordan Brandcontinues to target the next generation of sneakerheads through their Air Jordan 1 medium, with kids-exclusive colorways some of the brand’s most whimsical designs. In addition to their history-sharing Sneaker School series, the Jumpman will also deliver this flame-Swooshed Air Jordan 1 Low GS “Born To Fly” which honors the connection between the model and its adoption in the skating community.
Sure, the pair stays true to its basketball background, with Bulls-flavored colors running rife throughout the pair, but it’s elements like skate-specific motifs on the medial panel and Thrasher-like flamed Swooshes on the lateral that tie back to skating.
The adoption of the Air Jordan 1 as a skate shoe dates back to the mid-80s, when legends like Lance Mountain wore the sneaker on the regular. This led to collabs with the man himself, and Nike SB x Air Jordan 1s became a common occurrence.
As for this release, you should expect to see pairs land on Nike.com soon, though a specific release date was not noted by the brand.
Until more news arrives, grab a detailed look at the pair below, and with more details to follow, be sure to keep your eyes glued to our official Twitter account for updates.
