Air Jordan 1 Low Turquoise Stone

Designed by Peter Moore and part of the Air Jordan 1 line. This release has a leather upper in Sail/Light Smoke Grey/Sail/Mint Foam/Off Noir. Turquoise and stone is a holiday palette on a shoe that was built for a hardwood floor in Chicago. That distance is the whole appeal. The Air Jordan 1 Low keeps the panel layout Peter Moore drew with Bruce Kilgore in 1984, the separate cut pieces that made the original colour blocking structural rather than printed, and then fills those pieces with colours nobody would have chosen for a basketball shoe. Stone is a warm neutral, turquoise is a cool bright, and putting them together produces a shoe that belongs to summer clothing rather than to sport. It is the silhouette treated purely as a shape to colour in.
