The Air Jordan 2 Italy Pays Homage To The Sneaker Models Origins

The Air Jordan 2, a legendary silhouette born out of the creative minds of Peter Moore and Bruce Kilgore, showcased its unmatched premium quality and sophistication with its original Italian craftsmanship. In a nod to its illustrious origins, Jordan Brand is set to release a special colorway that embraces the iconic Italian aesthetic and echoes the renowned style of the legendary fashion house, Gucci.

Draped in a tasteful blend of White, Fire Red, Fir, and Sail, this Air Jordan 2 iteration proudly reflects the vibrant hues of the Italian flag. The upper, expertly crafted in a combination of smooth and tumbled leather, breathes luxury, reminiscent of the finest Italian craftsmanship. The Italian influence shines through with the eye-catching accents. Contrasting Red and Green adorn the inner lining, pipping, heels, and Wings-branded tongues, infusing the design with a festive Christmas vibe—perfect for the holiday season. A Sail midsole adds a touch of elegance, while the Cement Grey detailing on the rubber outsole completes the overall aesthetic, ensuring an elevated and classic look.

The Air Jordan 2 Italy is expected to make its way to the streets on November 18th, 2023. The pair will be made available on Nike.com and at select Jordan Brand retailers for $175.
