The ribbed detailing across the arm sleeve and the back is characteristically FACETASM. At a glance, the sneaker resembles the Nike Dunk Low, which has experienced a surge in popularity since 2019. The Jordan Brand Design team really did their thing, says Satou Sabally, forward for the Dallas Wings. In the Mount Rushmore of footwear sits the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star, which is as identifiable as it is legendary. It's such an odd choice to fly Travis Scott x Air Jordan so close to the sun because the reactions are quite predictable. They also have deep respect and love for the icon, says Georgina James, Senior Creative Director, Nike Women's Footwear.
With a suite of playoff performances under LeBron's Travis Scott Shoes belt, the storybook intrigue of the Soldier line grew. The Soldier IV continued the line's entry into team colorways. There's a laundry list of luxurious details on this upcoming Jordan release, including the quilted interior lining, the glossy mudguard at the heel, the leather toe, and the suede sidewalls of the midsole. These also introduce a brand new pattern at the ankle - a cross between elephant print and cracked concrete. The Dark Iris starts as many a past offering has, as white tumbled leathers construct much of the shoe's exterior. The Jordan 1 Low isn't as coveted as its doppelgnger, but it's historically boasted a similar knack for bold color-blocking, playful themes and experimental construction.
That would be elephant print, a design choice selected by Tinker Hatfield in response to Michael Jordan's desire for a more luxurious look and feel to his shoes. Plange calls the opportunity to work with LeBron Travis Scott x Nike Shoes a huge honor. However, it seems more than likely that Jordan Brand will stick to the simple name and number format due to the recognition behind Luka's name. Her design ambitions reflect careful thinking of diversity as a mechanism that can, in fact, highlight relationships between groups.
