Of course coming out of a basketball legacy, a lot is expected of Jordan Brand when it comes to pushing out fresh athletic and sport culture footwear. But with its expansion into the lifestyle market and its positive feedback, consumers hope to see JB continue to evolve. One of its more popular lifestyle shoes included the Campus Chukka, following suit to the popular silhouette that’s extending throughout streetwear. It looks like we can expect more dope looks, especially in the form of this new upcoming model- the Jordan Grown.
Do not mistake this as just a revamp of the existent Campus Chukka model; there are several distinct design differences. At first glance, the most prominent attribute is the midsole, utilizing a vulcanized midsole with foxing tape around the toe and heel. In fact, you might notice that a big difference between this and the Campus Chukka is that this actually has a midsole whereas the Campus’ upper sort of meshed into the midsole area. Though the upper may seem similar, the Jordan Grown features a mudguard similar to an AM90 for a more streamline look. Additionally, the presence of a gusset will make these so easy to put on and off- possibly the deal breaker for those looking for an easy shoe during their busy Summer agenda.
Other favorable traits are the loop tab on the heel and the Jordan Wings logo on the midsole. But flip the show to reveal another aesthetic we anticipate to be a major alluring factor. Never been seen on a Jordan shoe is elephant print treading, as seen on this gum sole. Throw in the canvas/denim materials for the upper and this is undoubtedly going to be a highly anticipated for its July release, as indicated in our catalog preview. Take a look at our in-depth preview and stay tuned for further exclusive previews.

May 11th, 2010 at 1:19 am
The name of the shoe is corny, but the shoe is very promising. These might be my first non-basketball inspired Jordans.
May 11th, 2010 at 1:26 am

The Wings logo on the side of the midsole kinda ruins it but this shoe is SICK.
May 11th, 2010 at 1:53 am
JB made a good move on these. I know lots will hate these but JB is tryin to appeal to the Vans customers as well as cats who skate. Overall, these r nice

May 11th, 2010 at 2:13 am

May 11th, 2010 at 2:18 am
This shoe is wack as hell. Just because you grow up doesn't mean you loose taste.
May 11th, 2010 at 2:22 am

all these people hatin chill out – they dope and jordan has to try new shit – what you just want retro releases over and over – then they become worth nothing and suck to.
May 11th, 2010 at 5:53 am
Fools. These are straight fire. But thats comin from a fan of PHLY's, these are mad dress shoes.
May 11th, 2010 at 6:12 am
ditch the wings logo, or put it somewhere else. just looks wrong.
May 11th, 2010 at 7:08 am
it's obvious why those are called the "jordan grown"… cause all you kiddies can't get along with that…
should be a nice addition to a more grown wardrobe!
May 11th, 2010 at 7:38 am
imma get a pair..then rip the wings logo off, they look so friggin out of place!
May 11th, 2010 at 7:54 am
Definitely a step in the right direction. These look good.
May 11th, 2010 at 3:43 pm
The print is on the sole of the shoe, so relax your anger issues…besides, these are better quality and better materials used then on anything else JB is releasing…..*rolls eyes
May 11th, 2010 at 4:25 pm
elephant print on the soles is a gnarly idea, subtle but true to JB's heritage. lets see more releases like thissssssss

May 12th, 2010 at 3:33 pm
I don't like the jordan sign on the sole, but other than that, pretty nice. I'd wear these to work.
May 13th, 2010 at 1:07 am
Y'all are lame for backing the crappy material Athletic J's over some of the more lux styles he's trying to make since he's how old now? Come on… this is definitely a nice shoe. I would rock at age 20. Screw the rest of you.
May 14th, 2010 at 1:36 pm
I'm feeling these joints, Jordan fans have grown up since "Do the right thing", i'm glad that they've made something with a more smart causual look, trainers (i'm from the UK) are associated with youngsters, & people can often look down on grown men wearing fancy bright coloured footwear. I think this is a nice compromise, the feel comfortableness of a trainers, with the aesthetic of a casual shoe.
I understand why they have put the logo where they have, as there is a natural space due the design, but kind agree that maybe the back is probably more appropriate, but i guess they want everyone to know its a air Jordan. I would rock these whether they were Jordans or not.
May 14th, 2010 at 10:22 pm
these jordans have swagg
June 12th, 2010 at 3:56 pm
Definitely gona cop!!
June 25th, 2010 at 1:33 am
