Jordan Brand has unveiled one of its most remarkable PE projects to date, with a breathtaking creation, the Nike Air Jordan 1 High KO Chicago 28cm “First Class.”
Kelsey Amy, a color designer at Jordan Brand, revealed this stunning model designed for members of the Jordan Brand family in the WNBA, which features an exquisite palette dominated by various shades of green. The color extends from the rubber outsole to the stingray-textured mudguard and tongue label, exuding sophistication and elegance. What elevates this design further is the use of gilded accessories that adorn the upper, adding a touch of luxury to the natural hue of the sneaker.
One of the most striking features of the “First Class” Nike Air Jordan 1 High KO Chicago 28cm is the solid gold (likely plated) Jumpman logos on both the tongue and heel. These logos are enhanced with a small diamond gem replacing the basketball in the iconic Jumpman silhouette. This intricate detailing sits atop a textured leather commonly found in Italian-made high-end leather goods, blending sports compensation with luxury fashion elements.
The sneaker also comes with a double-sided hangtag that narrates the story behind the “First Class” concept. One side of the tag mimics a standard baggage tag, complete with Jordan Brand's iconic elephant print and a nod to PDX, Portland, Oregon's international airport. The other side proudly features the WNBA logo above 2023, a testament to the sneaker's exclusivity and connection to elite women's basketball.
