Air Jordan 1 KO "Laney" Pays Tribute to MJ's High School Days

 

The Air Jordan 1 KO, known for its canvas construction, provided an affordable alternative to its leather counterpart, showcasing its unique place within the Jumpman legacy. Although not as widely celebrated, the silhouette still holds its significance in sneaker history. In recent times, Jordan Brand has been rekindling interest in the Air Jordan 1 KO with a range of high-top and low-top colorways.

This coming September, the Air Jordan 1 KO is set to honor Michael Jordan's high school days at Laney High School. Inspired by the school's colors, the sneaker features a combination of "True Blue" and "Topaz Gold." "True Blue" covers the nylon tongue and side profile, while "Topaz Gold" adorns the toe box, Swoosh, ankle flaps, and laces. These vibrant tones also extend to the Nike logo and Wings branding, creating a harmonious tribute to the institution.

The Air Jordan 1 KO "Laney" is scheduled for release on September 30th through Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Sneaker enthusiasts can anticipate a tasteful blend of heritage and style in this upcoming release.
