In 2006 Ward 1 Design was commissioned to design the Official 2007 Yearly Calendar for the Black Eyed Peas.
Utilizing the photography of Nabil Elderkin, I sent many samples to the Peas themselves for approvals, until we came to the final look & feel.
The finished calendar was distributed and available worldwide to the enormous fanbase of BEP.

Air Jordan 3 Retro • 2001

January 11, 2014 | Category: Photography, Ward 1 Sneakers

The third retro of the black cement Air Jordan III’s, this sneaker was nearly identical to the retro released in 1994 and the original released in 1988.
These still contained the beloved Nike Air logo on the heel plate, and was the last Air Jordan III
to sport it. Its mix of black tumbled leather and grey elephant print make this shoe one of the most popular of all-time.

2001 Air Jordan 1 High OG “Bred”

December 27, 2013 | Category: Photography, Ward 1 Sneakers

Arguably the most popular of the original 1985 Air Jordan colorway, this OG ‘Banned’ edition that earned MJ $5000/game fines,
changed the way we saw basketball shoes in an irreversible way. Seeing them revert to the original branding
furthers the sense that this is a truly special timeless release.
