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.
The 9060 is a new expression of the refined style and innovation-led design of the classic 99X series. The 9060 reinterprets familiar 99X elements with a warped sensibility inspired by the proudly futuristic, visible tech aesthetic of the Y2K era. Sway bars, taken from the 990, are expanded and utilized throughout the entire upper for a sense of visible motion, while wavy lines and scaled up proportions on a sculpted pod midsole place an exaggerated emphasis on the familiar cushioning platforms of ABZORB and SBS.
The Nike Air Jordan 1 Low “Dark Beetroot” sneakers now appear dressed in black and burgundy hues. This model is crafted from leather and enhanced with the brand’s usual signature details – the Swoosh logo on the sides, Wings insignia at the heel and Jumpman logo on the tongue. Underneath, a two-tone rubber sole completes the design.
As recreational running established widespread popularity in the 1970s, the benchmark for running footwear shifted from mere existence to performance. While the era’s designs would be considered simple by today’s standards, the decade stands out as the moment when running shoes truly came into their own. The 327 sheds new light on the ‘70s as a time of innovation by boldly reshaping classic design elements with a thoroughly contemporary outlook. With an angular reworking of the tried-and-true wedge silhouette, outsize, asymmetrically applied ‘N’ branding, and wraparound, trail-inspired lug outsole, the 327 provides nothing less than a complete reimagination of our running heritage.
The Nike Dunk Low SP ‘Brazil’ replicates the look of the classic ‘Brazil’ Dunk from 2001, featuring a simple two-tone color scheme that combines a yellow leather base with contrasting green overlays. Nike branding adorns the heel tab and stitched-on woven tag atop the lightly padded nylon tongue. The low-profile silhouette is mounted on a sturdy white foam midsole, reinforced underfoot by a green rubber outsole.
