After dropping two of the best Air Jordan collabs of the year in August with Free the Youth and Awake, Jordan Brand will have a tough act to follow in September. Helping lead the charge will be a sneaker just as unexpected as the former’s Air Jordan Air Jordan 16, as Mowalola is turning the Air Jordan 14 into a mule as one of its two takes on the last sneaker Michael Jordan wore as a Chicago Bull.
Also in store for the month ahead is one of the better women’s-exclusive concepts, as a nail-themed Air Jordan 1 comes with charms to glue on your digits. A lesser-sung sneaker from “Space Jam” is also on the way for the film’s 30th anniversary, and several brand new colorways of other models are also on the way.
