January 28th, 2021
Although neither the date nor the location of the NBA's All Star Weekend has yet been set, Jordan has taken it forward by already presenting the reference sneakers. A new pair of Air Jordan 1 LOW SE that anticipates the most spectacular show of the American basketball championship, in which Michael Jordan has participated on 14 occasions and elected MVP of the tournament on three occasions (1988, 1996 and 1998).
The shoe has a dark shade, a shape similar to total black if it were not for the white sole. Black, however, has different shades depending on the sections of the sneakers: the base layer is rougher and in matte black, while the overlapping finishes in glossy black. The Swoosh is also in glossy black, and the only white parts of the sneakers are the sole, the seams on the Nike symbol, the Jumpman symbol on the tongue and the contours of the Air Jordan logo behind, on the heel. Swoosh, in fact, also has characteristic traits. In fact, nike's symbol is embroidered with dots along the entire surface with diagonal patterns.
Every year, Jordan offers sneakers specially made for the All Star Game, an event that connects sports, show systems and sportswear in one event. But Jordan is just one brand among many preparing products in reference to the All Star Game. For example, for the 2019 show (dedicated to Kobe Bryant) in addition to Jordan also New Balance for Khawi Leonard (the New Balance OMN1S), Under Harmour for Stephen Curry (the 'Curry 6') or Nike for Kevin Durant (the KD 11).
