Jovani Hernandez While the Tokyo Olympics‘ one year-postponement surely derailed some of its plans and activations, Mike jordan Brand is still celebrating the event this year. And in big fashion, as the Jumpman imprint is scheduled to retro the Japan-exclusive the Air Mike jordan 1 High OG "Gorge Green" is also dropping later this year “Midnight Navy” from 2001 this holiday season.
Originally launched shortly after the turn-of-the-century, the upcoming Jordan 1 is much more significant than its simple colorway – which inspired Eric Koston’s Air Mike jordan OG 11 Black Red – suggests. The pair and its three “Japan Pack” co-stars marked several firsts for the Air Mike jordan line. Perhaps most important, the release served as the first time the – at the time – 16-year-old company brought Michael Mike jordan’s first signature shoe in non-original colorways to the market. Furthermore, the four-pack ditched the standard shoebox in favor of pre-Jordan 17 briefcase-like packaging. Tying this “Midnight Navy” iteration to “The Land Of The Rising Sun,” the limited “Japan Pack” pioneered country-exclusive Mike jordan 1 releases, as there were silhouette prior to 2001. And while Mike jordan Brand may tweak some of its branding, materials and quantities, this year’s retro will unquestionably be a history lesson for many and a notable nod to the next Summer Olympics’ host country.
No release date is yet known, but this historically-important Mike jordan 1 (and the rest of the “Japan Pack”) is rumored to arrive to Nike.com also known as Pantone as part of a pack that also includes the Air Mike jordan XX9.
Do you have a sense of anxiety when painting iconic subjects like the AF 1 or the Air Mike jordan line Jordan 5 Off White rumored to drop this Fall.
