Matt Varga If news of the Nike Tech Fleece trench coat didn’t elucidate it already, Jordan Brand is expanding their range into further stylish territory. Arguably the biggest headline we’ll see in Jumpman peripherals this season doesn’t come from entirely new product, though. First released in 2023, the Jordan Brand monogram brand returns this season with two new colorway options.
The clear reference point is the work of Italian luxury brands that have broken necks at airports for decades, with the likes Gucci, Louis Vuitton and Prada inspiring the checkered layout here. The everlasting “23” logo runs in alternating columns and rows to replicate that arrangement, with previous seasons bringing additional luggage like messenger bags, cross bodies and leather backpacks.
Speaking of, Beaverton went heavy with the color options in the initial run of the monogram, utilizing it in “Coconut Milk,” “Dark Smoke Grey,” “Chambray,” “Pink Glaze” and “Emerald Rise.” Each were comprehensive, monochromatic palettes, aligning with the black / “Metallic Silver” here and making the “University Blue” colorway here something of a switch-up. Tapping into Mike’s college years once again, the bag sports cerulean straps and closure atop of a refined white base.
If you’re looking to make the swap from Italian luxury to championship DNA, look for the Jordan Brand Monogram Duffel hitting Nike.com and select retailers this Holiday season. Likely rolling out in 40L and 20L sizes, expect a $150 and $125 retail price for each respective size.
