A Closer Look at the Jordan 1 “Black Shell”
The sneaker boasts premium leather throughout, from heel to toe. The toe box, heel, ankle flap, and side Swooshes are meticulously crafted from smooth black leather sourced from Horween Leather.
However, the true standout feature of the design is the luxurious brown shell leather that envelops the rest of the sneaker. This leather, known for its durability and strength, boasts a glossy finish and develops a unique patina over time, adding a touch of exclusivity and individuality to each pair. Its high resistance to creasing ensures that your kicks remain sleek and wrinkle-free.
Then, lambskin leather inners and round wax laces further add to this pair’s opulence. Finishing off the look, the sneakers have a white midsole and a black rubber outsole, maintaining a classic aesthetic.
