The Air Jordan 1 Element Gore-Tex "Sky J Purple" is a versatile colorway of the alternate version of Michael Jordan’s first signature shoe in a modified weatherproof design. The Jordan 1 Element was released as part of Jordan Brand’s Holiday 2021 collection and gives the venerable basketball and lifestyle shoe a rugged design that’s meant to withstand the elements, including harsh weather conditions. A Gore-Tex membrane lines the upper, with overlays on the toe cap, forefoot, and eyelets appearing in Sky J Purple nubuck. A tan ripstop-like material appears on the mid-panel and a brown textile is found on the perforated toe. A Sky J Purple Swoosh logo is located on the sides. A “Wings” logo resides on the collar while “Gore-Tex” branding is printed on the lateral side of the heel. Release date: October 14, 2023
