Jovani Hernandez Brand Jordan may be paid attention to for its Air Jordan retros, but the last two decades have seen the most successful athletic-specific label of all-time cement itself within the lifestyle and non-basketball space. The Jordan Granville Pro is the latest example of this achievement.
Reminiscent of Nike Running designs from the 1970s, the upcoming sneaker from the 23 Engineered line features a low-cut trim and straightforward shape across its upper and sole unit. Breathable mesh couples with durable suede panels and fuse strips to create a comfortable, but lasting ride. Components indulge in a mostly-muted mix of tones like the Granville Pro’s debut “Rattan” style, but “University Blue” and “Obsidian”-like contrast appear throughout the toe, tongue and spine for a heritage-inspired outfit (Michael Jordan attended the University of North Carolina). Underfoot, the jewel swoosh-donning shoe boasts full-length Formula 23 cushioning like the Jordan Luka 1 and tread similar to the waffle-patterned solutions the Swoosh used to make a name for itself decades ago.
Enjoy official images of the pair ahead, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
