Update: Since making noise throughout January, we have our latest look at Travis Scott’s Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Canary.” Drawing inspiration from his high school — Lawerence E. Elkins High — its “Canary” color scheme combines white, yellow and blue detailing. It’s said to be a women’s-exclusive launch that is currently scheduled to touch down on shelves starting May 17 via Nike SNKRS at a price of $150 USD. Stay tuned for updates and review our previous notes below for more info.
Update: It’s been a week since we first caught a glimpse of Travis Scott’s Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Canary” — one of two forthcoming AJ1 Lows on the way from La Flame. Now, a detailed visual breakdown of the pair has arrived as we await its summertime launch. Be sure to dive into our previous coverage and imagery below for more info as we stay tuned for updates regarding the pair.
Update: A first look at the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low Canary has surfaced via sneaker leaker @sharkicks. Inspired by the colors of Scott’s high school — Lawerence E. Elkins High in Missouri City, Texas — the shoes feature a white pebbled leather base, yellow suede overlays and the rapper’s signature backwards Swoosh in blue pebbled leather.
Though the leaked images are riddled with watermarks more incessant than the ad-libs in Scott’s music, they show off plenty of other accompanying details as well. The shoes come with yellow, red and blue laces, feature Cactus Jack branding on the lateral quarter, left heel tab and insoles, and are rounded off by white midsoles and soft brown outsoles. The “Canary” is the rare Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 collaboration that doesn’t stick to a murky or earthy color scheme (his previous three-headed collaborations with fragment design and Jordan Brand are the only other examples), and, funnily enough, its yellow and blue shades are not dissimilar to the colors of Laney High School in Wilmington, North Carolina — Michael Jordan’s alma mater and the source of inspiration for several Air Jordan releases over the years.
Expect an arrival sometime this summer, and read the original article below for more info/to compare the final product to previous mock-ups.
Original Story: Travis Scott and Jordan Brand will continue their work on the Air Jordan 1 Low into 2024, as news of a new women’s exclusive “Canary Yellow” pair has surfaced. Surfacing just weeks after the recently revealed “Black Olive” colorway, the “Canary Yellow” boasts a “Canary/Racer Blue/Light Silver/Gum Medium Brown” color scheme that’s imagined in the above-pictured unofficial mock-up from @zsneakerheadz.
As is par for the course, early info on an exact arrival date is murky. Kicksfinder, who first reported the release, indicated that it’ll drop in “summer 2024,” which means it should be seen sometime between April and June as one of the special collaborations that’ll accompany Jordan Brand’s standard slate of seasonal releases.
Since first working on the Air Jordan 1 Low back in 2019 (the inaugural Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low was debuted during a GRAMMY performance) Scott has become Jordan Brand’s foremost collaborator on the model. Apart from his wide-ranging slate of colorways, including “Reverse Mocha” and “Black Phantom,” there’s also been a Travis Scott x fragment design x Air Jordan 1 Low collaboration and even a well-received golf iteration of the model.
Stay tuned for more info on an official release date, and a first look at images as soon as either is made available. Expect the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low “Canary” to retail for $150 whenever it does indeed release.
