Air Jordan 1 High Grove Green 01

We’ve been treated to a number of must-have Air Jordan 1s throughout 2016, but perhaps the most surprising release is the return of the metallic patent leather style found here on this Air Jordan 1 High “Grove Green”. For those of you who don’t remember, the patent leather style of the Air Jordan 1 was a polarizing addition to Mike’s iconic first signature silhouette back in the early aughts with the stand out being the Black/Metallic Gold rendition.

This “Grove Green” pair takes an Oregon-like approach thanks to the combination of a black base and dark Grove Green accents on the Swoosh branding, heel, and toe panels. More interesting is the underlying cracked pattern throughout the green portions for a vintage effect. The traditional ‘Wings’ branding returns on the ankle support while the tongue skips over the classic ‘Nike Air’ for a crisp white Jumpman branding. What do you think of the look?
