Jordan Brand is bringing some new features to this year’s Air Jordan 1 Black History Month offerings. Not only will the famed 1987 silhouette that started it all get luxurious Black/Metallic Gold constructions, but both the grade school girl’s sizes and men’s options will feature removable velcro patch branding.

We previewed the Air Jordan 1 BHM in a head-turning girl’s colorway last night. The Air Jordan 1 GG “Black History Month” benefits from a Metallic Gold patent leather on the side panels and toebox while a texturized black hits the forefoot and ankle for a simple yet unique option. A removable tongue patch alternates between classic Jumpman branding and Nike’s signature ‘BHM’ crest.

The men’s version of the Air Jordan 1 BHM takes a simpler approach thanks to a tumbled black leather. This pair also includes more patchwork options as the iconic ‘Wings’ logo can be swapped out for other options not yet showcased. The side panel Swoosh branding gets a matching gold leather aesthetic to coincide with alternating Jumpman and BHM tongue patches.

Be on the lookout for each of these Air Jordan 1 BHM pairs to arrive at retailers this February and head over to our Air Jordan Release Dates page for more of the latest offerings from the Jumpman.
