Overview

I attended the the Shoe Surgeon Academy. Over the course of one weekend in Los Angeles I created the Air Jordan 1. In the I learned the fundamentals of footwear pattern development and construction. My colorway is Inspired by the Future album titled DS2.

Key Features

  • Eco Leather: the shoe is constructed with eco- leather, which is a sustainable, environmentally-friendly answer to traditional animal leather. 

  • Wax Laces: the wax black laces compliment the shiny black leather featured on the tongue and toe box. 

  • Tag: At first glance this shoe may look like your average Nike AJ1 but, the Shoe Surgeon tag on the top on the tongue gives the shoe that final touch to identify where the shoe was constructed.
