In September 1985, Nike and MJ launched the Air Jordan 1. A month later, they were “banned” by the league. Although the AJ1 is a sports and streetwear icon now, back when the sneakers debuted, they were highly disruptive and instantly revolutionary. While the league may have tried to stop MJ from lacing up in the original AJ1, they couldn’t do anything to temper the fans, so “They Can’t Stop You From Wearing Them” became a defiant rallying cry. Now, the spirit of the sneaker is brought to life through the ‘Rebellionaire’ Air Jordan 1, which features that same not-so-subtle reminder printed all over the style’s upper, and includes a Red “X” mark on the heel to commemorate the birth of the banned legend.
Built to fit your foot and designed for comfort, the Nike Air Huarache brings back a street-level favourite. Soft leather accents on the upper are mixed with super-breathable, perfectly shined neoprene-like fabric for easy styling. The low-cut collar and bootie-like construction keep it sleek. Its iconic heel clip and stripped-away branding keep the early ’90s look you love.
The Nike Dunk Low ‘Black White’ also known as ‘Panda’ treats the retro model to an essential two-tone color scheme that accentuates the sneaker’s clean lines, developed by designer Peter Moore and responsible for the shoe’s easy transition from the hardwood to the street. The leather upper combines a white base with contrasting black overlays that wrap around the toe and heel. On both the woven tongue tag and heel tab, Nike branding in white stands out in relief against a black backdrop.
