A striking contrast to the recently unveiled “Rust Pink” release, Jordan Brand has another nubuck-clad colorway of the Air Ship about to set sail in "Diffused Blue."
The "Diffused Blue" version is characterized by its minimalistic yet bold approach. Dominating the design is a single shade of “Summit White” that consumes nearly every smooth leather panel of the upper. This off-white reminiscent hue crafts a unique blank canvas, extending its reach to the laces, tongue, and midsole underfoot. Adding a vintage flair, the tongue loop is adorned with aged exposed foam, a subtle detail that enhances the shoe's retro feel.
In contrast to the white-dominated upper, the strict palette is broadened with dark shades of indigo. These deep blue hues are masterfully applied to the suede profile swoosh and collar, creating a visually striking contrast. This indigo tone is further echoed in the inner lining and the tread, effectively creating a dynamic opposition at each end of the silhouette.
