Nike presents a new look at its Air Jordan 1 sneaker iteration with a Black Toe colorway palette that is done in a unique application. The shoes have the original High OG silhouette and the back is designed in black with a crackled detail. Visually, it draws the same palette as the Chicago colorway with a highlight on the pre-distressed leather construction throughout the upper.
It highlights original red and black details with grey accents that can be found on the tongue. The upper has a white base foundation and the red details rest on the back sole unit for a pop of color. More tonal contrast is seen at the black ankle cap made from leather and is rounded out by the oversized black Nike Swoosh.
