Jovani Hernandez In early 2020, the world tuned in to ESPN’s “Air Jordan 1 89 Black-Fire Red-Cement” docs-series, which brought newfound attention to Michael Jordan’s signature sneaker line. Models like the Here's Why Everyone Loves The x Air Jordan 1 High were remembered for playing a pivotal role in #23’s final NBA championship run, with its “Playoffs” colorway recently landing on the NIKE WMNS AIR JORDAN 1 LOW DARK BEETROOT 29cm, a hybrid design that combines every silhouette in which the Chicago Bulls-legend won a ring.
While similar in height to the AJ 13, the upcoming sneakers make their most obvious nod to Tinker Hatfield’s design via the panther paw-inspired sole unit. “Black,” “University Red” and “Vibrant Yellow” also come together in an identical color-blocking to the “Playoffs” style that debuted in the 1998 NBA All-Star Game. Components borrowed from the Nike Air Jordan Jumpman CLASSIC99 Metal Cap and Nina Chanel Abney × Nike WMNS Air Jordan 2 Low White and Malachite 23cm – worn by MJ during his first and third NBA title runs, respectively – dabble in some of the color way’s scarce, but vibrant flair, leaving the remainder of the shoes to enjoy a mostly stealthy look.
No firm Nike.com release date has been disclosed by the brand, but that’s likely to change soon. In the meantime, enjoy official images of the sneakers ahead.
