Air Jordan 2 Low x Off-White™
White and Varsity Red
$250
Get yours on HERE.
For this edition of the Air Jordan 2 Low, Virgil Abloh, the designer of Off-White™, pays homage to the OG sneaker that debuted in 1986. When it first released, it was the first shoe of its kind to bring a sense of luxury to a shoe that was meant for athletes to meet their peak performance. Abloh adds his personal design to this sneaker by beginning with one question:
If an Air Jordan 2 was pulled directly from a time capsule, what would they look like?
From there, history was made. Instead of starting fresh, with new designs, they reverse engineered the new edition from an OG pair. They used 3D scans of a pair that was owned by Michael Jordan himself. The result created a distinct design. In order to keep the integrity of the concept, each right shoe and left shoe of the Off-White™ design have a cracked midsole that look different from each other.
Nike describes the shoe, saying that each pair "features MJ's signature printed in a different place, recalling how he'd sign his own pairs and give them away to kids after games. Step into an Air Jordan heirloom with this latest Off-White™ collab."
This shoe comes not only in White and Varsity Red, but also in Black and Varsity Royal. Both colors are available on the same day.
