Jordan Brand Adds a Basketball Texture to the Air Jordan 1 Low
“Shattered Backboard” vibes.
From start to finish, the Air Jordan 1 Low has played a major role in Jordan Brand’s offerings for 2022. Between new looks on the silhouette designed by the team and collaborative partners, lots of attention has been brought to the classic sneaker. This week, the high-top version of the shoe sees its release in an orange covered “Starfish.” Now, as fall settles in, yet another orange colorway of the Air Jordan 1 has surfaced.
In a color scheme reminiscent of various “Shattered Backboard” editions of the Air Jordan 1, orange meets black and off-white. However, Jordan Brand has opted to further lean into the basketball vibes this time with orange leather overlays and Swooshes that carry a basketball-like texture. A black leather base combines with black on the laces, tongue and heel’s printed Wings logo to offset the orange which also appears on the rubber outsole. From there, an off-white, “Coconut Milk,” midsole appears to lighten the look.
Release information for the Air Jordan 1 Low “Sport Spice” has yet to be announced. Look for the Swoosh to launch the pair in women’s sizing this fall at an expected price of $120 USD via Nike and select retailers.
In other news in the world of footwear, this week’s edition of best footwear drops includes the Neckface x Nike SB Dunk Low, Air Jordan 4 “Midnight Navy” and more.
