Colombian J Balvin delivers a special iteration of the Air Jordan I that’s direct from Medellín and meant for the whole world succeeding in breaking barriers through music and self-expression. He brings intense “colores” and “vibras” (Spanish for “colors” and “vibes” — and the names of Balvin’s acclaimed 2020 and 2018 albums) to his Air Jordan I x J Balvin design. The first Latino artist to collaborate with Jordan Brand, J Balvin said “I was thinking about how I could have a disruptive Air Jordan I,”. “I wanted to be the person who really dared to change the shapes and go all out. No one has touched the Air Jordan I like this before.” Symbolizing Balvin’s source of energy, The Air Jordan I x J Balvin’s bold rainbow canvas upper has jagged-edge trimming and rounded-color wings that are meant to represent a cloud-like explosion. Pink, white and black laces and interchangeable patches (think a smiley face, a Jumpman, a basketball and lightning bolt) enable wearers to customize the shoe based off their mood and creative expression while the artist’s smiley-face logo replaces the Jumpman logo on the left foot tongue tag,

The Air Jordan I x J Balvin releases globally December 8 on SNKRS and at the below retailers.
