A few days ago, Sony released the latest Spider-Man animated film, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. To celebrate the origin story, Nike dropped the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Origin Story” as a tie-in to the film. The Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse sneakers are a variant of the Air Jordan 1 with a slightly updated colourway, paying homage to the web-slinger.
The Air Jordan 1’s design draws its inspiration from the main character, Miles Morales, who wears a pair in the film. The colourway doesn’t differ too much from the original, in red, black and white, it stays true to the OG sneaker theme, with small details, including a reflective material and dotted patterns along the upper are inspired by the protagonist’s costume.
The Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse sneakers have already sold out in most countries across the world, so keep an eye out for resellers on eBay and the likes.
Official Nike press release:
“Jordan Brand is celebrating the release of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse with a special edition Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG ‘Origin Story’. Matching the pair seen in the film on Miles Morales, this AJ1 puts a twist on a classic colorway. Like Morales’ character, the AJ1 is known for defying the norm. Like the mask, the AJ1 can be worn by anyone and empower those who wear it to be heroic.”
