Nike has just announced the launch of its highly anticipated Jordan Wings Collection, set to drop in limited quantities across Greater China. Representing the apex of Jordan Brand's product lineup, this collection epitomizes meticulous craftsmanship, premium materials, and an unwavering dedication to excellence.
Crafted in Italy, each piece in the Jordan Wings Collection pays homage to the timeless legacy of Jordan Brand, spanning from its inception in 1984 to its current iconic status in sports, culture, and style. With an eye towards the future, these pieces are designed to transcend generations, becoming cherished heirlooms in the process.
The apparel lineup features a selection of classic basketball-inspired silhouettes, including a hoodie, varsity jacket, diamond shorts, and a tracksuit. No expense was spared in sourcing the finest materials, with buttery lambskin, cashmere blends, and premium fleece elevating each piece to unparalleled levels of luxury. Even the simplest items, like hoodies and tees, bear the hallmark of meticulous craftsmanship, drawing inspiration from the enduring legacy of the Jumpman.
One standout piece from the collection is the Jordan Wings net sweater, meticulously hand-stitched by Italian artisans over seven hours to replicate the texture of a nylon basketball net. Accessories follow suit, with designs inspired by the iconic Jordan Wings logo, resulting in pieces like the Wings-shaped luxury pouch, crafted from the finest calfskin.
Adding to the allure of the collection are two limited-edition footwear offerings: the Air Jordan 1 High '85 Wings and Air Jordan 1 Low '85 Wings. Handcrafted in Italy, these shoes boast premium full-grain Italian leather uppers, meticulously stitched by skilled artisans. One variant even features hair-on-hide leather for a truly distinctive look. With heavy satin lining and foot-conforming sock liners, comfort is guaranteed with every step.
The Jordan Wings Collection represents a fresh interpretation of a timeless classic, blending heritage with innovation to create something truly extraordinary. With its release in Greater China, Nike invites enthusiasts to embrace the legacy of Jordan Brand and experience luxury like never before.
The Jordan Brand Wings Collection releases exclusively in Beijing in March 2024.
