Get ready to fall in love. Nike’s February 2021 release of the popular low-top silhouette is dedicated solely to the heartwarming holiday. These Air Force 1 “Valentine’s Day Love Letter” sneakers are crafted from soft panels of tulip pink and university red suede and feature a delicate “True Love Since ‘82” along the mid-panel. Finished with signature Nike branding in the way of a bold Swoosh logo and embroidered “Air” logo, the low-top pair are sure to catch your eye.
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.
Made for big kids, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG GS ‘Dark Mocha’ features a non-traditional accent colour that nonetheless figures prominently in the history of Jordan Brand. The rich brown hue appears on the nubuck heel overlay and collar flap, stamped with a classic Wings logo on the lateral side. The rest of the upper combines a white leather base with contrasting black leather overlays. Nike Air branding adorns the tongue tag.
