Official Images // Opium Paris x Jordan Air Ship "Hornets"

In a unique melding of fashion and sports heritage, Opium Paris, the renowned boutique known for its exclusive sneaker collaborations, teams up with Jordan Brand to reimagine one of basketball's earliest icons—the Jordan Air Ship. This collaboration brings the "Hornets" colorway, paying homage to the Charlotte Hornets, a team once owned by Michael Jordan himself.

The Jordan Air Ship model holds a special place in sneaker history, having been worn by Michael Jordan during his rookie season before the release of his own signature line. This model's design laid the groundwork for the Air Jordan 1 and has since become a symbol of basketball's golden era.

The Opium Paris x Jordan Air Ship "Hornets" features a sophisticated color palette of Sail, Blue Chill, and Black, reflecting the Charlotte Hornets' team colors. The sneakers are crafted with premium leather eyestays and hairy suede on the collar, adding a layer of texture and depth. The profile Swooshes maintain a clean look in matching tones, creating a sleek and stylish silhouette that resonates with both basketball fans and fashion enthusiasts.

Set to release soon, this collaboration not only celebrates basketball heritage but also infuses it with contemporary fashion elements, making the Opium Paris x Jordan Air Ship "Hornets" a must-have for collectors and aficionados alike.
