Update March 10, 2023: The Air Jordan 2 ‘Melon Tint’ arrives via select retailers on March 15.
The Air Jordan 2 continues its run as one of the most unexpected success stories in recent years. Tapped by design genius Virgil Abloh last year, the much-maligned Air Jordan 2 slowly picked up steam following the Off-White release, with J. Balvin, Union L.A. and A Ma Maniére all jumping aboard.
A grossly underrated sneaker, the Air Jordan 2 originally drew inspiration from Italian luxury and reportedly nearly caused Michael Jordan to defect from the Jordan Brand (then still operating as Nike).
The latest in-house colourway joins the Air Jordan 1 and Air Jordan 4 in the Jumpman’s ‘Craft’ collection for Spring 2023, and the sunny colour scheme is perfect for the warmer weather. Drawing on ‘Sail’, ‘Melon Tint’, ‘Light Curry’, ‘Cobblestone’, and ‘Muslin’, the model is manufactured in a mix of leather and suede materials.
