From A Ma Maniére to Off-White and even Dior, Jordan Brand is always teaming up with luxury labels to deliver some premium (and sometimes iconic) sneakers. Right now, the creative Leroy Van Drie has us all dreaming of a Prada x Air Jordan 1 collaboration. It could very well be one of the most beautiful Jordans we’ve ever seen.
Van Drie’s vision for this dream collaboration includes two elegant Air Jordan 1 colourways that make heavy use of Prada’s signature materials and minimalist aesthetic.
The first design is predominantly black, with a mesh base, tumbled leather overlays, glossy patent-leather Swooshes, and even a few rubber accents. The branding is on point, with a black and silver Prada lace dubrae and the brand’s all-too-familiar triangle logo featured on a detachable mini bag that straps around the shoe. You’ll also find 3D “Prada” text printed on the heel and an all-black sole unit.
The second pair is an all-white version that mirrors the features of its black counterpart. Of course, of a blacked-out exterior, this one is dipped in white. Right down to the branding elements.
Both designs scream luxury and sophistication, and if brought to life, they would undoubtedly rank among the best premium collabs in the sneaker world. Unfortunately, this pair is just a concept for now, and there are no current plans for a Jordan and Prada partnership…at least not yet.
