Jordan 1 Retro Low OG

The elegant tones found on this Jordan 1 Retro Low OG sneaker evoke the White & Neutral Grey hues of one of the original AJ1 designs. High-quality traction underpins the shoe via a Neutral Grey outsole that is covered in a variety of grip formations. There are the star-shaped nodes on the toe, the pivot-circles in the forefoot and the lugs in the heel. All of these come together to provide the wearer with a confident step, while the white midsole placed over it brings comfort. It does so through a heel that contains a pocket of Nike Air and the foam cushioning packed into the rest of the sole.

On the upper, premium leather panels have been arranged in familiar fashion. A graceful shade of white coats most of them, while the slightly dappled nature of the material used to make them lends the shoe an appealing texture. Placed around the perforated toe box is a mudguard, with overlays behind it that fold up from the midsole to settle atop the bottom part of the eyestay. In that way, the two pieces of leather share some of the latter’s eyelets, through which pristine white laces are looped. These criss-cross over a white tongue which has a label sewn into it. This white tongue label contains Nike Air text in a second, darker shade of gray known as Particle Grey.

Within, the sneaker is blanketed in comfortable materials, from the smooth off-white fabric of the walls to the springy white surface of the insole, which has been decorated with another set of Particle Grey branding. Meanwhile, the outer exhibits more compelling features. Firstly, above the white heel counter, there is a Neutral Grey suede heel panel. Imprinted into it is a pair of Particle Grey Jordan Wings, bringing a smooth contrast to the back of the shoe. Finally, the use of exquisite suede materials continues on the Neutral Grey swooshes that sweep along the sidewalls in conclusion of this masterful Air Jordan 1.
