The Jordan Wings Collection represents the pinnacle of Jordan Brand’s offerings, meticulously designed and produced in limited editions for the discerning markets of Greater China. Each piece in this collection is a testament to the brand’s unwavering dedication to quality, crafted in Italy using only the finest materials. This series not only commemorates the enduring legacy of the Jordan brand from its inception in 1984 but also enhances everyday apparel into collectible pieces destined for future generations.
The range includes classically inspired basketball apparel such as hoodies, varsity jackets, diamond shorts, and tracksuits, all made from luxurious materials like soft lambskin, rich cashmere blends, and high-grade fleece. The design ethos of the collection reflects a refined simplicity while celebrating the iconic Jumpman through intricate detailing. For example, the Jordan Wings net sweater, which takes over seven hours to handcraft by skilled Italian artisans, is an homage to the basketball net, crafted from nylon and exemplifying authentic craftsmanship. The accessories within the collection, including a luxury pouch shaped like the Wings logo and crafted from fine calfskin, further explore and reinvent the classic imagery associated with Jordan Brand.
Footwear in the collection includes the limited-edition Air Jordan 1 High ’85 Wings and Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 Wings, each pair handcrafted with precision in Italy. These sneakers feature top-quality full-grain leather or hair-on-hide materials, with meticulously hand-stitched uppers and triple-layered, hand-painted leather edges. The interiors are lined with heavy satin and include poured PU sock liners, ensuring comfort that matches their exclusive design.
Set to debut exclusively in Beijing in March 2024, the Air Jordan 1 Wings Collection encapsulates the essence of the Jordan Brand’s rich history. The release is scheduled for March 23, 2024, with footwear priced between $875 and $975.
Following its initial launch in China, the collection is poised to expand to Japan in October of the same year. The Japanese release will introduce additional apparel options including a hoodie, button-down shirt, and a track jacket, available in three different colorways of the Air Jordan 1. Notably, the black version will not be available in this market. A pre-sale for this exclusive line will be hosted at the JING Harajuku Yodobashi J6 Building on October 19th and 20th, with the official release occurring on October 24th at the Jordan World of Flight Shibuya. Prospective buyers are required to book in advance, with reservations available online.
