Nike's Jordan Brand launches a new tonal palette that adorns the iconic Air Jordan 1 Low sneaker model for the season with the unveiling of the White, Gray Red colorway design. The shoe starts off with a white leather material that makes up the base foundation of the upper.
It is then wrapped with gray suede materials for a textural contrast and a tonal contrast at the eyestay, the heel, and the mudguard section of the shoe. The bold pops of red make its way to the Swooshes on the side of the sneaker for a notable branding accent. Additional branding details can be seen in the form of the Jumpman logo on the insoles and the tongue tag.
