ball jordan playground black red | First Looks // junior jordan brand crew black "Black/Wolf Grey"

White of the Air Jordan line have been practically begging for more releases of Michael Jordan's twelfth retro sneaker, and although many will be satisfied with 2023's long-awaited retro of the OG "Cherry" colorway, White of it's black-based alternate will be in for a treat come 2024, as a brand-new junior jordan brand crew black "Black/Wolf Grey" is on the way.

The suave, muted grey takes the lead, cascading down the mudguard and claiming the sole entirely, hinting at a versatility that resonates with both court action and street fashion. Further whispers suggest that this grey elegance won't play a solo act, hinting at a harmonious chorus with other subtle accents on the sneaker.

Balancing the "Wolf Grey" is a dance of classic black tumbled leather, 554725-604 the stitched upper in a familiar embrace. This darker tone extends its reach, creating a sense of continuity with the sneaker's interior and tongue. Strategically placed white nuances steal the final glance; They're not just accents; they're exclamation points, particularly the greyscale TWO3 embroidery, and a break int eh mudguard with a black Jumpman-branded panel.

Get a first look at the colorway below, and expect to learn more as we move closer to the pair's September 7th release.
