It’s the rare sneaker that satisfies the “rule of three”—sometimes, having three minds is greater than one. In the case of Jordan Brand, Travis Scott and Hiroshi Fujiwara’s Fragment Design, it was a case of three masterminds coming together to collaborate on not just any Air Jordan, but the beloved Air Jordan 1—a model both the Houston rapper and the Japanese designer have tapped for past Jordan Brand link-ups. Their Air Jordan 1 Low colourway comes in familiar colour blocking schemes, but with special touches only Scott and Fujiwara could’ve conjured up. On top of an aged midsole with matching Sail laces, fresh Military Blue accents the heel, collar and insole, providing a new flavour for a classic make-up. And no need for double-takes at the Sail Swoosh—it’s indeed backwards—now a signature Scott touch for his Air Jordan 1 designs. But if anyone on the street rubbernecks while you’re rocking this collab, they’ll know who’s responsible: Cactus Jack and Fragment Design logos are embossed on the left and right heels, respectively, leaving their modern marks on this time-tested silhouette.
The Nike Air Force 1 ‘07 ‘Computer Chip’ is drawn from a limited collection launching in conjunction with LeBron James’ ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy,’ the standalone sequel to the original 1996 film. The vintage hoops shoe features computer chip-inspired graphics throughout the upper, crafted from black leather with matching black textile on the quarter panel. Upon closer inspection, the circuit lines coalesce into familiar forms that strongly resemble the silhouettes of Bugs Bunny and his newest Tune Squad teammate, LeBron James. The angular lines — rendered in tonal fashion except on the quarter panel, where they’re etched in blue — glow in the dark, along with the milky rubber outsole
The latest colorway of the Nike Zoom Fly 5, “Pink Oxford,” for women, is an additional option for those who prefer sweet, pastel colors.
The Engineered Mesh upper comes in a dull pink, Pink Oxford, and uses a sweet pink, Pink Gaze, inside, and contrasts with a transparent Swoosh with red University Red stripes. There is also a gradient of pink on the white SR-02 foam midsole. Inside is ZoomX that is left over from production, pressed into new blocks and placed inside. Of course, it still comes with a carbon plate as usual. Finished with a rubber sole that comes in black. This model is positioned as a running shoe for speed training and can be worn in competitions.
The neutral pink palate is a soft change on the Nike Air Max 270. A large Max Air unit and plush foam midsole offer cushioning under every step, while the stretchy inner sleeve provides a snug, socklike fit that’s sure to keep you comfortable all day, every day.
