One of the most highly anticipated collections will be making its debut this April. The Jordan Brand and Air Dior collection takes the design and techniques of the luxury designer and applies it to its streetwear counterpart in Jordan Brand. The soft tones of navy blue, white and Dior gray can be seen throughout the apparel collection and of course the sneakers.
The pieces in the collection will use elevated materials that add a more luxe feel to what we've seen in previous Jordan collaborations.
Relaxed, minimalistic wool suits are punctuated with buttons signed with the Air Dior logo. The blazers sport subtle blue and white striped linings. The MA-1 bomber jacket, a classic Jordan garment, reprises the emblem on its back and displays the Jumpman logo – recognized the world over - on its sleeve. It is paired with silk shorts decorated with a graphic motif featuring the “CD” initials.
A gray suede hoodie also sports these new logos in perforated or embossed versions created using precise, meticulous techniques. The Dior Oblique motif – a powerful, timeless code – for the first time adorns the linings of the designs, which are all made by hand in Italy.
Cashmere or sleeveless sweaters, shirts and polo shirts as well as pants affirm a new look, inspired by the NBA champion’s style and his balance of audacity and elegance. Four leather goods pieces – including a pouch and a wallet – as well as bob hats, necklaces and jacquard ties complement this collection, while square silk scarves subtly combine the toile de Jouy and Wings prints.
The Air Jordan 1 High OG Dior, Air Jordan 1 Low Dior, ready-to-wear apparel and accessories will be available April 2020 at a selection of Dior stores and pop-ups.
