The Air Jordan 1 is truly the mother-of-pearl of the Jumpman legacy. For forty years, the one that started it all still maintains its place in the ever-changing street culture, largely due to it being the centerpiece of a number of special projects to tell stories of greatness. From Nigel Sylvester in Queens to Hiroshi Fujiwara‘s imprint in all of the Far East, the Air Jordan 1 remains the ultimate blank canvas.

Here, Jordan Brand injects a level of true elegance not typically seen on the model. We’re met with the quilted stitching on the heel, immediately infusing a premium aesthetic to the design. The colorway appears to be a softly shaded grey and purple, but a closer look reveals that the overlay has a slight color-shift tendency like the interior of an oyster’s pearlized shell. Even the rubber bottoms feature the iridescent finish, matching the pristine color theory of the upper build

This women’s Air Jordan 1 Low “Pearlized” is set to launch in late Fall; see the official images below and stay tuned for updates.
