While the Air Jordan 1 hype has died down significantly compared to the white-hot fervor around MJ’s first signature sneaker in the early parts of the decade, Jordan Brand still has plenty of iterations on the horizon. Included in this are redesigned versions of the model, such as the Brooklyn, which adds platform boot tooling to the sneaker. Next up for the low-top AJ 1 Brooklyn is a Wheat colorway that borrows heavily from one of NYC’s most iconic workboots — the Timberland 6-Inch Boot.
Like a typical pair of Timbs, this Air Jordan 1 Brooklyn Low is coated primarily in a wheat hue. The AJ 1 opts for a tumbled leather finish as opposed to Timbs’ usual nubuck material. The workboot vibes continue onto the lace set, which is done in a two-tone red and yellow, while the black hues traditionally found on the collar of a 6-inch Boot make an appearance on the leather heel tab and sockliner.
