Air Jordan 1 Mid Patent Bred Toe

Designed by Peter Moore and part of the Air Jordan 1 line. This release has a patent leather upper in Black/Varsity Red/White. Bred Toe splits the upper three ways, black, white and red, with red on the toe rather than the Swoosh, and this Mid renders it in patent. Patent leather has a specific place in Jordan history: it entered the line on the Air Jordan 11, where it brought a formal wear material onto a basketball court and gave that model its reputation as the Jordan people wear with suits. Bringing that surface back to the 1, the shoe Peter Moore and Bruce Kilgore drew in 1984, collides the line's two most recognisable ideas. The colour arrangement is the archive; the shine is the 11's contribution.
