Features
When the first images of the sneakers dropped, it seemed that they were meant to remain samples. Never to see the light and never to bless the sneaker community with their presence. But now that an official release date is out, let’s get a closer look at the features of this exquisite pair.
The Air Jordan 1 Homage to Home features a mashup of 2 of the most celebrated colorways, Chicago and Banned. In fact, it’s not actually a mashup as it is a collage. This design splits the colorways s right down the middle. The Chicago theme is placed on the inner side and the Banned theme can be seen on the lateral side. This vertical split reaches the tongue and the Nike Air logo placed there. The cherry on top is the white soles and red outsoles, bringing the whole features together.
