Jovani Hernandez With the rise in popularity of the Air Jordan 1 throughout the last three years, NIKE, Inc. has reevaluated how to treat Michael Jordan’s first signature sneaker. In addition to high-profile collaborations and retros of original colorways, the North American company has modernized the sneaker, and made it (slightly) more accessible along the way.
In addition to FlyEase-equipped iterations, the Peter Moore-designed sneaker has also emerged in a “Zoom CMFT”-variant, which combines Zoom Air-cushioning underfoot with a robust exposed-foam arrangement at the collar and ankle. Furthermore, the Air Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT commonly features much more breathable materials around the collar than leather, which pairs well with the cut-out swooshes for unprecedented airflow. Coupled with a bevy of non-original, vibrant colorways – “Team Red” leading the charge on the latest option to surface – this reinterpretation of the inaugural Air Jordan has blended heritage and forward-thinking design well.
An official Nike SNKRS release date hasn’t been disclosed. but this Jordan 1-variant is likely to launch before summer ends. In any case, enjoy images of the shoes here below.
