2023 has been a big year for Jordan Brand. Each week brings another release that has been exciting and highly coveted. The Air Jordan 1 Washed Heritage is releasing at Shoe Palace June 10, and it should be one of the hottest Air Jordan releases of the year. Learn more below.
Washed Heritage
The Washed Heritage Air Jordan 1 features faded elements. The shoe uses a white leather base with different shades of grey suede on the overlays and ankle collar. The Wings logo is featured in white on the ankle flap with black seen on the liner. Sail is used on the midsole and the Air Jordan 1 has a black outsole.
The Air Jordan 1
The Air Jordan 1 was designed by Peter Moore and was released in 1985. The release was tied to Michael Jordan’s rookie season in the NBA. The design of the Jordan 1 was rather simple and consistent with the other basketball shoes of the era. The Jordan 1 lacked the sophisticated technology that the Jordan Brand would be known for with later installments. Nike was dedicated to giving Michael Jordan his own shoe and brand to grow with. That commitment is clear when you view the shoe’s distinctive logo. Moore designed a wings symbol, a precursor to the Jumpman logo, that was placed on the upper ankle of the shoe.
