Air Jordan 3 – Black Cement 2024

November 20, 2024 | Category: Ward 1 Sneakers

Air Jordan 3 – Black Cement 2024

 

You don’t become a certified classic without doing some things the world’s never seen before. Our third Air Jordan hits with a lot of firsts. The first with the Jumpman on it. The first time anyone saw elephant print on a sneaker. The first Jordan designed by Tinker. And just like greatness, this shoe doesn’t come around that often. When it does, it’s special. This “Black Cement” edition is as close to the feel, fit and shape of the original that released in ’88. Smooth leather serves as the backdrop to the iconic elephant print overlays and signature Nike Air heel branding, while the Fire Red Jumpman tongue logo nods back to MJ’s legacy in Chicago.

 



Nike Air Max 90 – Chicago Bears Orange

 

Lace up and feel the legacy. Produced at the intersection of art, music and culture, this champion running shoe helped define the ‘90s. Revolutionized through collabs and celebrated through rare colorways, its striking visuals, Waffle outsole, and exposed Air cushioning keep it alive and well.

Air Jordan 6 “Olympic”

First released in ’91, MJ wore ’em when he claimed his first championship and now you’ll be wearing ’em. Dressed in a patriotic palette, this special-edition colorway didn’t release until 2000—just in time for Sydney. Laden with premium leather, icy outsoles and those iconic lace locks, these sneakers bring throwback style to any ‘fit. And, if history’s proven anything, it’s that you can’t lose in these shoes. Lace ’em up and let your kicks do the rest.

 


 




 

Nike Air Max 1 ’86 OG “Air Max Day”

The Nike Air Max 1 ’86 OG Big Bubble Air Max Day (2024) is a special-edition sneaker that was released to celebrate Air Max Day. The sneaker boasts a white mesh construction with suede overlays in Royal Blue and Sail. Unlike other Nike Air Max 1 models released as part of Air Max Day, the “Big Bubble Air Max Day” iteration features a Volt midsole that catches the eye. The tongue’s inner lining also showcases a panel of Volt synthetic material. The oversized window in the heel displays visible Air Max units and four circular cut outs. The ‘3.26’ on the tongue’s logo tag represents the date of Air Max Day and comes in chunky Blue Volt letters. The Nike Air Max 1 ’86 OG Big Bubble Air Max Day (2024) was launched on March 26th, 2024, and sold for $150.

Nike Air Max 1 ’86 – Royal

Nike prepares for Air Max Day 2024 with the unveiling of the Air Max 1 ’86 in “Royal.” The model takes on a look that’s similar to the “Air Max Day” iteration (which was previously seen on-foot thanks to LeBron James), but switches out its neon “Volt” midsoles with white. The classic “Royal” colorway is crafted with a white mesh base and suede overlays in gray and blue, while branding details can be spotted on the panel swoosh, Nike tongue tag, embroidered Nike Air heel logo and the Nike Air-stamped insoles. A visible heel unit cuts through the white midsole, while white laces tie the shoe together for a clean finish.

Air Jordan 4 Reimagined

The Air Jordan 4 Bred Reimagined comes constructed out of a Black premium leather upper instead of the usual nubuck construction we’ve seen on the original and past retro versions of the Air Jordan 4 Bred. In addition to the Black upper we then see Cement Grey detailing on the waffle eyelets, inner liner, the Nike Air branding on the midsole, and portions of the midsole and outsole. To complete the Bred theme we see the addition of Fire Red on the Jumpman on the tongues, inner tongues, and parts of the outsole. A white rubber midsole wraps up the look on this timeless Air Jordan 4. The Air Jordan 4 Bred Reimagined dropped on February 17th during All-Star Weekend for the retail price of $215. That date was also to celebrate Michael Jordan’s 61st birthday.

Air Max 1 ‘86 • Chicago

October 26, 2023 | Category: Ward 1 Sneakers

Air Max 1 ‘86 • Chicago

Celebrate the Chicago skyline with the Air Max 1 ’86. History lesson: In the wake of the Great Chicago Fire, residents worked together to rebuild, replacing charred wooden structures with steel, concrete and glass. The AM1 ’86 “Chicago” pays homage to this “second city,” bringing the hues of modern skyscrapers to premium leather and suede. Blue Chill accents and a reflective Swoosh nod to the mirror image of downtown towers in the surface of Lake Michigan. And on the the insole and tongue label, you’ll find that iconic skyline, overlayed by a Nike Swoosh.

Chicago Pack

Built for, validated by, and told through the city: Chicago, this one’s for you. Nike teamed up with six local streetwear legends (Leaders, Notre, RSVP, St. Alfred, SVRN and Succezz) to craft sneakers inspired by the resilience of Chicagoans past and present. Through the stories at the heart of these designs, the Chicago Pack evokes an ever-evolving blend of heritage and modernity, fire and water, steel and wood. As a unifying touch, both footwear styles feature a special-edition graphic on the insole and tongue label—the Chicago skyline overlayed by a Nike Swoosh.
