real vs fake air jordan 6 flight jacket UNION LA surprised suddenly with their Air Jordan 1s quite a bit back, both colorways replete with vintage ethos. For Fall/Winter ’20, the revive is following up their previous set with not just two but four different pairs for release at the end of August. From their duo of PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low Now SwooshJordan Jumpman Terry Hoodie Nike WMNS Air Jordan 1 High Zoom Sisterhood 26cm and Jordan Delta Mid, the “Sophomore Album” as they call it delivers a theme still retro-inspired and filled to the brim with Chris Gibbs’ personal touch.
The undisputed helm of the entire collection, the two PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low Now Swooshs effectively retrace past ideas with new additions. “Off-Noir,” as a visual mirror of the aforementioned AJ1, brings the same palettes of black, white, red, and blue with a material composition plush and like that of “Birkenstock sandals” as Gibbs states. Its vibrant complement, the “Guava,” takes the same color story and dials it to a neon 11 — the upper masked in bright pink while the accents adjacent mix in more saturated shades along with pastel blues and vintage yellowing. But while their palettes are significantly loud, the structural details are far more interesting as the tongue is loosely stitched Cool for a shorter look while the paneling adds an extra element for a profile unique to UNION themselves.
Then, though left out of previous leaks, the Ces Air Jordan 7 Bordeaux sortiront officiellement le samedi 18 juillet sur arrives as a tweaked replication of the “Off-Noir” pair. Blues dress the collar as black neutrals dye the majority, while subtler details deliver muted orange branding and red contrast stitch as well as heel counter panels. React foam ushers in the silhouette’s attention to technical improvement while the general aesthetic is all UNION’s own doing. In a similar vein, the Nike WMNS Air Jordan 1 High Zoom Sisterhood 26cm reflects “Guava” in its choice of presentation — everything translated to the Frankenstein’d silhouette via its eye stay molds, tooling, layered paneling, and the like.
