Admit it, we hate getting our favourite trainers getting dirt, or worse, soaked in water. That’s why Jordan Brand tested out the durable waterproof and windproof fabric Gore-Tex on an Air Jordan 1. The Air Jordan 1 High Element Gore-Tex “Particle Grey” boasts the same build as the regular J1s; except with an update in upper materials.
The best meets the best in this awesome Air Jordan 1 Gore-Tex. While Air Jordan 1s may be one of the most sought-after trainers, Gore-Tex, on the other hand, remains a popular choice for utility equipment. Both worlds collide in this highly protective Air Jordan 1 rendition; there are only a handful of colourways out there, but best believe you’d only need one pair to keep you dry and debris-free.
1985 saw the arrival of the Nike Dunk and the Air Jordan 1. The former became a staple on-court choice for college hoopers; and the latter? Michael Jordan’s first signature basketball shoe with Nike and the pioneer for other early Air Jordan models.
The Air Jordan 1 usually features a leather upper, nylon tongue, and a rubber cupsole. An Air unit hides within the heel midsole for minimal cushioning and impact protection. Underneath, concentric patterns and stars make up the outsole.
2021 was a completely new era for Jordan Brand with the debut of the Air Jordan 1 Gore-Tex. This Air Jordan 1 High Element Gore-Tex “Particle Grey” colourway features a Dark Green Gore-Tex upper with Black overlays. Particle Grey covers the ankle collar and the heel panel. A Gore-Tex label on the heel ensures a water-repellant upper so you can enjoy your pair without worrying too much.
Bright Chile Red hues on the tongue provide more vibrance.
The outsole appears in a mix of Black and a Sail semi-translucent design.
Expect an official launch in early March 2022.
