Like Jordan Brand’s other major ambassadors, Blake Griffin, Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony, Thunder superstar Russell Westbrook is being treated to his own Air Jordan 1, and one that will actually make an appearance at retail.
Something of a new spin on the iconic “Bred” AJ1 motif, Russ’s shoe swaps in dark teal on the nubuck side-panel and toe, a shade or two lighter than the usual black, which is retained for the swoosh. Pebbled red leather appears on the heel, lace-strap and toebox, meanwhile, and Russ’s “RW” logo is emblazoned on either tongue, though it’s worth noting that these photos seem to disagree on whether the tongue-tag is white or teal.
There’s no Air Jordan 1 Russell Westbrook PE release date yet, but we’ll pass it along as soon as we can confirm it. In the meantime, check out a couple more shots below.
