Before the advent of his NOCTA sublabel with Nike, Drake’s October's Very Own (OVO) was the creative force behind several Player Exclusive (PE) iterations of classic Air Jordans. The Air Jordan 18 stands out among these exclusive designs, initially seen in a striking Metallic Gold colorway. Adding a vibrant chapter to the OVO x Jordan legacy is the recently revealed Jordan 18 Volt PE.
This OVO x Air Jordan 18 Retro Volt PE retains the original design ethos of the Air Jordan 18, inspired by Italian dress shoes, Formula 1 racing cars, and the sleekness of motorsports. The shoe is drenched in an electrifying volt hue that commands attention, ensuring it stands out in any collection. This bold color choice is complemented by subtle grey accents on the Jumpman logo adorning the shoe's tongue shroud and eyelets. Although this version forgoes OVO branding seen in previous collaborations, it maintains a strong connection to the Jordan brand through the logo placed on the heel's back. The grey midsole and outsole provide a neutral counterbalance to the shoe's vibrant upper, grounding the design and ensuring that the Volt color remains the focal point.
Drake’s OVO x Air Jordan 18 Retro Volt PE will remain an exclusive item not available for public purchase.
