Could Another Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 1 High Be in the Works?

The Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 1 High from 2018 is regarded by many sneakerheads to be one of the best Jordans ever made. Switching the focus from basketball to biking, this is the first AJ 1 ever to be made in collaboration with a BMX athlete. Now, after four years, it looks like a sequel might just be in the works, and here's everything that we know so far.

Aptly dubbed the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 1 High "Black," these Jordans feature an all-black leather construction which has been specifically designed to look pre-aged and pre-worn. A crisp white Swoosh shoots through the lateral and medial sides, while the iconic winged basketball emblem features on the collar. Underfoot, the Nike Air midsole arrives in a creamy hue for a vintage vibe, and finishing off the collab is a fiery red rubber outsole that's sure to set your sneaker game alight.

Unfortunately, our sources tell us that the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 1 High "Black" was a gift from Jordan Brand to Sylvester to celebrate the launch of his book, but if these do get a public release, Ox Street will be here to let you know.
