Thanks to noted Jordan Brand employee Frank Cooker, we now take time to catch a first look at this themed Air Jordan 6 silhouette. Dubbed “Purple Rain,” the new variation highlights a full-on purple suede-fashioned upper with embossed branding up top at the tongue and a white lace lock adding decorative fair.

Situated below, we see a lighter shade of purple dressing the midsole, while a semi-translucent outsole ties the look together. It remains unclear if these never-before-seen Air Jordan models will see a general release, so be sure to stay tuned for future updates.
