After much speculation and rumours, Union LA, Fragment Design and Jordan Brand are finally dropping their Air Jordan 1 collaboration. Releasing in three limited colourways, today I’m reviewing the “Royal” colourway which mashes up the bottom of the Air Jordan 1 “Royal” with the upper of the “Metallic Navy”. Tune into my early review for an in-depth look, and to see how they are in all its glory! Who’s copping these when they drop in February?
The beloved Air Jordan 1 “Royal” is back, but with a twist. These “Reimagined” Royals are crafted using a plush blue suede, with black nubuck layers instead of the traditional leather. This has the sneaker community talking – with some liking the change, and others despising it. Watch my review to learn more and let me know where you stand on this pair in the comments below!
Collegium is set to drop two limited colourways of their highly successful Pillar Destroyer High this week. Inspired by the Air Jordan 1 “Bred” and “Royal”, similar colour schemes are chosen for the upcoming drop on June 26th, but they are constructed using the same, top grain Italian leather that the brand has become known for. Check out my early review for a closer look at these Made in Italy kicks, and let me know which of the two are you guys feeling more?
Dropping in early December, Nike SB and Jordan Brand returned with another collab, this time taking inspiration from the Lance Mountain highs from 2014! The canvas upper can be removed, exposing a Royal 1 colourway on one foot, and a UNC 1 on the other. Check out my latest review to get an in-depth look, along with a before-and-after take on how my pair was customized!
