Basketball runs through Jordan Brand’s DNA, however, it doesn’t hesitate to explore other forms of athletics. Sneakers such as the golf-ready Air Jordan 6 Low “Bordeaux†offer the opportunity to blend two worlds with one shoe. When it comes to branching out into the world of skating, that’s where Jordan Brand’s crossovers shine brightest. Last month, it teamed up with Nike SB to outfit the Air Jordan 4 in a “Pine Green†that included numerous upgrades to its build for the purpose of skating. Now, it continues to tap into the world of kickflips with a new Air Jordan 1 Low look.
Dubbed the “Born To Fly,†the low-top sneaker sees “University Blue†make an appearance situated next to white and off-white hues. Joining a red kid’s colorway bearing the same theme, the coloring across and around the lateral Swooshes creates a flame-like effect with blue joined by yellow. Various gray graphics appear at the medial, including “Born To Fly†text on the left shoe. Matching this, additional skate graphics appear at the interior of each tongue. A blue Jumpman logo is embroidered at the white tongue while a matching Wings logo hits the heel in a hand-drawn style.
As of now, the Swoosh and Jordan Brand have yet to reveal any release plans for the Air Jordan 1 Low “Born To Fly.†Look for it to hit shelves via Nike and select retailers later this year.
