Regarded by many sneakerheads as one of the very best Jumpman sneakers in recent memory, the Nike SB x Air Jordan 1 ‘LA To Chicago’ broke the Web when it made its debut back in May. Not only is this a partnership between Nike SB and Jordan Brand, it’s also one of the extremely few sneakers that physically transform over time. Now, three months later, it’s getting a full restock!
Featuring a colourway that’s influenced by the Los Angeles Lakers, the ‘LA To Chicago’ is just one of those shoes that you’ll be lucky to see in person, never mind own. Crafted from panels upon panels of smooth full grain leather, striking yellow accents hit the ankle and Swoosh branding, which shoots across the lateral and medial panels with grace.

As its name suggests, as you wear these, the colour will slowly fade and transform over time, leaving you with a strong red shoe that’s a nod to the Chicago Bulls. This is an incredible design feature that’s incredibly unusual these days, and it’s certainly flex-worthy.
Set to re-release on August 16th, the Nike SB x Air Jordan 1 ‘LA To Chicago’ is a must cop! We already have a raffle guide live, so if you want to increase your possibilities of getting a W, be sure to enter as many as you can!
