It has been 5 years since the release of the Nike Air Jordan 1 High “Spider-Man Origin Story”, a sneaker that fuelled riots on drop-day, albeit their initial low value on the after-market. However, they now fetch top dollar and coming across a deadstock pair for a good price is a mission just as difficult as the ventures of Peter Parker in the world of Spider-Man. Due to this popularity for the Origin Story pair, it was only right that Jordan Brand treated the fans to another, this time donned “Across the Spider-Verse” and taking on a comic book aesthetic and some cool details.
Similar to that of the iconic “Chicago” colourway, this fun iteration boasts the same red and white upper with black hits on the swoosh, lacing, and ankle collar. However, the fun lies in the details, with a comic-book theme referenced through the variety of patterns on the red overlays, nodding to the vibrant art and animation featured in the Miles Morales Spider-Man films. The black details also take on a patent leather finish, further adding to the vibrant nature of this sneaker and tying in well with the various textures that make this pair pop.
Set to drop with special-edition packaging on the 20th May, the “Across the Spider-Verse” Air Jordan 1 High is sure to be a hit with fans of the beloved comic-book series. We’re excited for them to release at Kershkicks and to compare them to the previously released “Origin Story” pair. Keep your eyes peeled for pairs we have coming in and let us know what you think.
