Jordan Brand has several compelling colorways of the versatile Air Jordan 1 Low arriving to market this summer, one of which is this “University Gold” makeup. The Air Jordan 1 has always boasted a unique connection to skateboarding — as skate was one of the first subcultures to repurpose the silhouette — so the Jumpman has called upon suede materials similar to the ones used on footwear for a nod to the storied connection between hoops and skate. The stylish upper uses sail on the quarter and toebox, while the overlays are split between black on the mudguard, eyestays, and throat/gold on the heel and collar. Bright varsity red accents on the throat add a pop of alternate style, and a tonal ball-and-wings logo embroidered into the heel finalizes the branding. A sail midsole and yellow outsole then complete the look.
