Jared Ebanks Since late October, Union LA’s latest collaborative effort with Jordan Brand has been teased in yesteryear’s widely-attributed Air Jordan 1 KO construction. And while the low-cut silhouette is often anchored by clad-canvas tooling, the Los Angeles-based storefront will be additionally rendering its most recent team-up effort in a secondary proposition coated in selective tumbled leather.
Paying homage to the silhouette’s original release in 1986, the second proposition in the collaborative collection mirrors the initial model’s lightened aesthetic as smooth suede overlays are bound with cotton twill tape to the pebble leather base layer treated in a tonal wash of “Light Taupe”. Injecting a titular personality underneath the deep Navy Swooshes, golden yellow branded hang tags coordinate with the forefoot overlays and tongue’s seldom stitched accent. Harkening the presiding silhouette’s velcro-affixed Swooshes, the overall muted white ensemble comes contrasted by a pair of “Mint Green” Checks while an aged cream sole unit concludes the diversely concocted offering.
Boasting a premium jet-black branded box with a gold Union LA chain, enjoy official images of the Union LA x Air Jordan 1 KO Low “Leather” while we sit tight on the pair’s release date next Friday, January 27th.
