The emergence of basketball culture and fashion can be traced back to the 1980s when NBA legend Michael Jordan signed a deal with Nike. Despite the various adversities faced by the legend, he has an illustrious career. The swoosh label introduces the story of the silhouette as,
“Inspired by the original that debuted in 1985, the Air Jordan 1 Low offers a clean, classic look that's familiar yet always fresh. With an iconic design that pairs perfectly with any 'fit, these kicks ensure you'll always be on point.”
The Nike Air Jordan 1 Low has proven to be a significant offering for the label, particularly in 2022. The silhouette will also don multiple makeovers, such as - "Black Toe," "SNKRS Day Korea," "Celtics," and "UNC To Chicago," all slated to make their debut in 2023.
Now, the label's "Ice Blue" makeover was revealed to be a clean design and comes in a minimalistic aesthetic. The shoe's upper is made of an all-leather material with tumbled detailings. The shoes come in a "Sail / Dark Powder Blue / Ice Blue" color scheme.
The underlay and base layer is clad in an ice-blue hue, contrasting with the sail-hued tumbled leather overlays. The overlays are featured upon the toe boxes, lacing system, heel counters, and the swooshes logo on both the medial and lateral profiles.
The vamp features a perforated pattern to offer optimum ventilation. Dark Powder Blue can be seen accentuated over the branding details. The swooshes logo on both profiles is outlined with a dark powder blue hue.
The hue is extended over branding details, such as the iconic Jumpman logo over the nylon tongue and the popular winged basketball logo over the heel counters. The look is rounded out with classic air midsoles and rubber ice blue outsoles, which provide comfort and cushioning.
One can avail the sneakers on the official e-commerce site of Nike and select retailers in Spring 2023 at a retail price of $120. Stay tuned for further updates of this colorway.
