Matt Varga We’ve spilled plenty of ink on Jordan Brand’s efforts towards the links, bringing many of Mike’s most beloved silhouettes to America’s fastest growing sport (the Air Jordan 9 has been a notable tentpole through 2024.) However, the Jumpman has also shuffled another footwear trend, slip-ons and comfort kicks, into that endeavor. The Air Jordan 1 Golf Mule is a growing member of their green-minded offerings, again highlighting that with the “Shadow” colorway at hand.
We likely don’t need to explain the split between dark grey & jet black here, a colorway that’s been beloved since its introduction in 1985. However, OGs have truly been the name of the game with this tooling; “Bred” and “Royal” have already graced the silhouette, with an additional look in “University Blue” elucidating its reliance on already-established outfits.
Delivering on both of its hardware subtitles, a cut-off, rounded foot entrance and cleated spokes underfoot allow slip-on comfort and all-around performance alongside the timeless street style of Mike’s first signature. Zooming out, those who’ve coveted this OG colorway will have plenty of opportunity to stock up this Fall/Winter between this Golf pair and the Air Jordan 1 “Satin Shadow,” itself just revealed with official images.
Expect the Air Jordan 1 Golf Mule hitting Nike.com and retail shelves in the coming weeks. A sensible $110 retail price is anticipated.
