Elliot Santiago While still in the earliest stages of its lifespan, the Air Jordan 35 already has a busy schedule ahead of itself involving a wealth of upcoming releases. Some are tailored to specific Jumpman athletes such as the “Bayou Boys” iteration for Zion Williamson, as well as the “Warrior” makeup for Rui Hachimura, while others are categorized to the GR family. The latter, after officially uncovering a forthcoming “Bred” proposal, is now adding another option to its Fall/Winter lineup that pays tribute to the 600th anniversary of the completion of the Forbidden City, and it’s certainly the most pattern-heavy installment we’ve seen to-date.
Bold in design, the court-ready iteration comes outfitted with bright gold lateral/medial overlays and midsoles, the former of which carry blocky patterns that are symbolic of power and respect for the Chinese emperor. On top of that the ankle collars and throat come swathed identically with black exteriors, while supportive accents of red sprinkle to the branded tabs and teals coat the entire outsole to represent good fortune. Peep a further look here ahead, and stay tuned for their official launch likely on Nike.com and through select retailers in the coming months.
In case you missed it, the full Off-White Jordan Sail collection is set for a release on 10/29.
