There’s no doubt that A Ma Maniere was one of the best collaborators of 2021, offering luxurious takes on both the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 1. And later this year, James Whitner and the beloved more may recreate magic as they turn their attention over to the Air Jordan 1 Mid White Snakeskin Releasing For The Summer.
Brought back by the late, revered Virgil Abloh, MJ’s second signature is finally seeing the spotlight it deserves. Here, A Ma Maniere applies their taste for high-end, upgrading the construction with interesting materials. The “Sail” suede, for instance, is subtly cracked upon closer glance, subverting what was used for the label’s prior collaboration. Then, along the midsole, a print simulates snakeskin, with each scale sized up much larger than the mock-up indicates. Elsewhere, the hang tag and heel are finished in a deep burgundy, backdropping the black and white branding raised over top.
For a quick XIII look at Whitner’s latest, see below. A release is currently rumored to land April 29th, but that could very well change down road.
