Given the current heat wave descending on the United States, it’s hard to particularly look forward to autumn, but brands care not what the forecast reads. Footwear’s far-ahead schedule means that seasons that are a half a dozen down the line are very much being discussed at any given time.

Accompanying the comprehensive dose of the earthy tonality on the upper is a full make-up of plush suede, adding some refined air to the casually omnipresent Air Jordan 1 Low. A pop of “Varsity Red” on the tongue and rear Wings logo ensures that the connection to Mike’s winning ways isn’t lost entirely in this lifestyle-ready do-up.
