A lot of sneakerheads can’t be bothered with any Jordan models if they are not Retros or at least somehow based on a Retro, but the new Jordan Elements definitely deserves a look anyway. The Jordan Elements is a performance basketball sneaker from Jordan Brand that will be dropping in four colorways beginning this July and moving through the fall. The version pictured here will not be one of the colorways released for retail, but it gives you a chance to check out the design and plant the seeds of anticipation for the coming releases. This colorway was made exclusively for the Quai 54 International Streetball Tournament that is held in France each year. You may remember seeing the Air Jordan 1 that was created for the Jordan-sponsored event last year, and now it is the Elements that will get the spotlight.
The shoe uses several materials on different parts of the upper, combining black patent leather, mesh and textured leather. The blue translucent midsole is met by a black speckled rim along the top edge giving the sneaker some nice stylish touches. On these special edition pair, there is also a Quai 54 tongue label and a “Ruff N’ Tuff” tag inside the tongue. Check out some detailed pictures after the jump, as well as a look at another white/black/red colorway of the Jordan Elements. Stay tuned for news on the upcoming retail versions in the near future.
