Toward the end of last year’s basketball season, Nike, the Jordan Brand, and Converse began releasing special edition sneakers to honor incredible championship performances, dubbed the “Think 16” or the “Art Of A Champion” collection. The clear standout from that 16-piece set was Kawhi Leonard’s metallic silver-ridden Air Jordan 1 equipped with his signature “KL” Claw emblem and a special Larry O’Brien Trophy hangtag. While the quietest superstar in the Association has since moved on from the Jumpman to New Balance, Jordan is making an effort to re-ignite the energy surrounding that AJ1’s aesthetic with a similarly-designed take on the same silhouette. While not equipped with nearly as much shimmering silver, this Jordan 1 Mid sports a clear San Antonio Spurs-inspired color scheme that sees its lace unit take on the head-turning silver hue. Black and white are responsible for the rest of this model’s real estate, providing a much simpler and sleek-looking overall construction. At the moment, pairs are available at select retailers, the likes of Shoe Palace, so grab an official look below and keep it locked for updates regarding a wider release.
