The 'Air Jordan 1.5' is a luxe running shoe perfect for the fall. The Air Jordan 1.5 is essentially a reboot of previous styles, combining the upper of the Air Jordan 1 with the sole of the Air Jordan 2.
The all-black leather colorway is a contemporary touch, making the sneaker far more versatile and the perfect pairing for all outfits. An incredible amount of detail was put in the swoosh on each side of the shoe. The iconic Nike logo is made from a reptile-like texture. From a distance however, the black scaly accent adds some much-needed shine to the leather bound sneaker.
Following in the footsteps of the 'Chicago' colorway released earlier this summer, Nike opted to reissue the two-in-one 1.5 in a more subtle and classic black.
