Jordan Brand Goes Luxe With Exclusive Wings Collection

The limited edition, $875 Air Jordan 1 upgrades are set to be instant collector’s items for diehard sneakerheads.

Scarcity drives demand, an adage perhaps no more true than in the sneaker world, so the latest ultra-exclusive Jordan Brand sneaker drop should certainly turn prove covetable for a lucky few. The new Jordan Brand Wings Collection soars to new heights in luxurious fashion, updating iconic silhouettes for a select market.

The market? Beijing, where two fresh takes on the Air Jordan 1 (in four editions total) turn legendary throwback sneakers into a seriously luxe style statement.

The collection also boasts statement-making accessories and streetwear-inspired silhouettes, but sneakerheads will find much to love, first and foremost.

The upscale drop takes flight with the Air Jordan 1 High ’85 Wings, boasting hand-stitched full-grain Italian leather uppers and retailing for an impressive $975, quite the change of pace for Jordan Brand sneakers.

The Air Jordan 1 High ’85 Wings are also available in an impressive Italian leather, hair-on-hide all-black version, against boasting hand-finished detailing.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Wings feature the same luxurious hand-stitched construction and Italian full-grain leather, complete with a special embossed heel collar “Wings” logo.

Satin linings in both styles of the Air Jordan 1 Low provide a smooth ride, one that complements their refined-yet-edgy look (and a price tag of $875, to boot).

Accessories like a key chain and wallet, plus showy apparel, round out the offering, but if these exclusive sneakers are a sign of things to come, things could get even more luxurious in future seasons for Jordan Brand.
