Jordan Brand has instituted a number of heralded design choices throughout the iconic lineage of Michael Jordan’s signature silhouette. Most often attributed to its debut atop the Air Jordan 3, Tinker Hatfield’s synonymous elephant print has gone on to dress a number of models, now coordinating an all-out assemblage of the cracked appearance across the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, which releases in Europe and the UK this Saturday, February 25th.
Initially teased in September of last year, the highly-divisive, experimental proposition engages in one of the more eccentric uses of the latter surface. Introduced through a crisp white leather base layer, the brightened vamp and mid-foot panel pairs with jet-black contrasts along the laces, collar, winged insignia and mid-foot Swoosh for a monochromatic backdrop. Stretching the aforementioned greyscale print across the entirety of the upper’s overlays, an aged cream midsole harkens to the ensemble’s heritage-driven aesthetic while grey branding at the tongue pairs with the treatment of its tread underfoot.
While we await the pair’s stateside release on May 6th for a retail price of $180, enjoy official images of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Elephant Print” below alongside its specially crafted texture-matched box.
