Jordan Brand and Eastside Golf are joining forces once more, this time spotlighting the Air Jordan 1 High Golf silhouette for a poignant creation dubbed the “1961.”
The left heel of the shoe bears the word “CHANGE.”, while the right heel is marked with “1961”. This design choice commemorates a pivotal point in golf’s history: the year the PGA Tour lifted its ban on players of color.
Beyond the Eastside Golf Air Jordan rendition, whispers suggest that two additional designs will be part of the “1961” series – the Jordan ADG 4 and the Air Jordan 6 Low Golf. However, finer details on these additional releases remain under wraps.
Diving into the specifics of the Eastside Golf Air Jordan 1 High Golf, the design artfully blends shades of Black, Malachite, Metallic Gold, and White. Preliminary insights hint at the utilization of top-tier materials, complete with mesh tongues and an inner lining for added comfort.
Distinct design accents that define this pair include the elegant “Eastside Golf” script nestled inside the primary Swooshes, the brand’s signature golfer motif on the tongue, the “Eastside Golf” emblem on the insoles, and gold-tipped laces that complement the metallic gold Jordan Brand insignia. It’s also rumored that this edition will be accompanied by unique hangtags and packaging.
The Eastside Golf Jordan 1 High Golf “1961” is priced at $200 USD. Sneaker enthusiasts can mark their calendars for its debut on September 8, available at select Jordan Brand outlets, Stadium Goods, and Nike official website.
