If you don’t remember the lasered sneaker era, you missed a phenomenon. From etched Jordans to the Air Force 1 made for Turtle on Entourage, Beaverton’s laser vibes created some of the most unique and sought-after sneakers of the early aughts. Now, the energy is back for a new era, with the Jumpman bringing back a two-pack of lasered 4s, a pair of etched 3s, and an Air Jordan 1 Retro Low with its own all-over print engravings.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro Low Laser popped up in preview photos at the end of July, and now, with August here, the Jumpman is back with a full image set of the pair. Featuring a mix of black leather covered in lasered graphics, black nubuck, and black ripstop mesh, the new Air Jordan 1 Retro Low is a perfect fit for the refreshed laser collection.
