The Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Howard University” 2024 offers a distinct homage to the rich heritage of Howard University. Jordan Brand crafted this shoe with precision, using a unique color palette that reflects the university’s iconic hues. The shoe features a clean white leather base, contrasted by Midnight Navy on the toe box, eye stays, and the signature Swoosh. Gym Red accents appear on the heel and mini Swoosh near the toe, adding a bold pop of color.
The design doesn’t stop at the upper. A Sail midsole paired with a light gum rubber outsole provides a vintage touch, enhancing the overall aesthetic. This combination of colors and materials not only pays tribute to Howard University but also makes the shoe a standout piece in any sneaker collection. The attention to detail, from the muslin-tinted midsole to the gum outsole, shows Jordan Brand’s commitment to quality and design excellence.
Notably, the retail version of this shoe differs from the original player-exclusive pairs gifted to Howard’s basketball teams in 2023. The retail version omits the university’s branding, focusing instead on a broader appeal while still celebrating Howard University’s legacy. This shift in design direction allows the shoe to resonate with both sneaker enthusiasts and fans of the university.
