John Trottier is renowned for transforming some of Jordan Brand’s most stylish collaborations with his unique vision. Yet his UNION x Bephies Beauty Supply Air Jordan 1 “Freddy” is still a surprising and thrilling twist. This design masterfully blends elements from the classic Union LA and BBS collaboration of 2023 with Nike’s infamous SB Dunk Low, resulting in a spectacular creation.

A Closer Look At The Sneaker
The Air Jordan 1 features the familiar striped sweater pattern reminiscent of the Nike SB “Freddy Kreuger”. This is complemented by metallic silver side Swooshes and red-splattered leather overlays, paying homage to the iconic horror character. The sole unit retains the vintage yellowed appearance of the original SB Dunk Low, paired with its black rubber outsole, for a classic look.
However, UNION and Bephies Beauty Supply’s intricate woven pattern slices through the upper, encircling the entire shoe from toe to heel. This captivating detail lends a slashed effect that flawlessly enhances the shoe’s overall theme.
What We Like About The Sneaker
This design makes us wish Nike would officially recreate their Freddy Dunk Lows using the woven pattern detail seen in the Union and BBS collaboration. It’s an ideal look for the spooky season and one that would undoubtedly mark a significant moment in sneaker history.
