Following the “Midnight Navy” CO.JP colorway, Nike continues to deploy the Air Jordan 1 for a series of striking iterations this 2020 holiday season. The latest variant to enter the legendary lineup is the Swoosh’s “Black Mocha” take. Reminiscent of Travis Scott’s AJ1 “Cactus Jack” collaboration, the high-top sneaker is dressed in an off-white, dark brown and tonal black color scheme.

The sneaker is fitted with a black Swoosh on the side, black Wings logo at the collar and a gray Jumpman logo on the tongue to boot. The bold color blocking of brown and black on genuine nubuck leather gives this perennial silhouette a crisp and classic look. Finishing touches are off-white midsoles and black outsoles for a balanced, overall execution.

Nike released official images of the Air Jordan 1 High “Dark Mocha” this past Friday. Pairs will hit Nike’s SNKRS app on October 31 in men’s and grade school sizing for $130 USD.

Elsewhere in footwear, BEAMS SSZ connected with Vans for an exclusive “Double Pocket” Era.
