First Look at Forthcoming Air Jordan 1 "First Class Flight"
Prepare for takeoff.
After receiving a treated leather makeover, the Air Jordan 1 has received “First Class Flight” treatment. Shot by sneaker leak expert @hanzuyung, the classic basketball sneaker sports a variety of playful graphic accents inspired by luxury air travel.
Offering a clean white leather upper, yellow accents allow the outsole, ankle, tongue tag and medial side Swoosh to gently pop against the neutral tones, recalling sleek airfare tickets. Furthering the motif, thematic graphics appear around the shoe — on the heel, a black barcode adds strong contrast, with the nearby “23” shrouded inside a recycling-inspired triangle. Below the ankle opening, a yellow panel is emblazoned with more aesthetically-appropriate imagery, including “FIRST CLASS FLIGHT” verbiage and Michael Jordan-referencing initials.
Expect the AJ1 “First Class Flight” to take wing in July via Nike’s site and Jordan Brand stockists for $160 USD.
Elsewhere, Jordan Brand wrapped the Jordan 6, 7 and 8 in metallic 3M for the “Reflections of a Champion” pack.
