Certain color combinations will always be tied to certain creators/athletes/brands. Black and Red is owned by the GOAT. Black and aqua will always be a Nick Diamond joint. Salmon orange and navy will forever be tied to Ronnie Fieg.

Over the course of the last 13 years, this pairing of pecan brown and dark red eventually morphed into a Tom Sachs piece thanks to the Mars Yard initiative. It’s been such an influential piece of the culture as it bridged the world of art and sneakers through ground-breaking experiential marketing, and they’re continuing the story digitally by reserving pairs for those who complete a series of task-based challenges.

For those who aren’t interested in filming themselves shooting free throws and uploading the footage onto the webs, Jordan Brand is dropping an Air Jordan 1 Mid with its own unofficial Mars Yard flavor. With a black suede upper, they throw in that unmistakeable color-combo on the t0e-box, heel, and ankle.

A release is expected soon on Nike.com and Jordan retailers, so stay tuned for updates.
