The Zion 1 is Made to Move Different

Zion Williamson's signature shoe ushers in a new era for Jordan Brand, built for a once-in-a-lifetime athletic talent.

news.nike.com

“From the time he was in high school, Zion keeps you right on the edge of your seat,” says Howard “H” White, VP, Jordan Brand Affairs. “You know that anything can happen. It’s like looking at a famous painting. No one’s really arguing about how special it is. All you can do is be in awe at what he does.”

In creating the Zion 1, Jordan Brand designers were taken by Williamson’s unique blend of star power. They looked to design a silhouette that both enabled his immense physical tools on the court while also illustrating personal traits that make him a one-of-a-kind superstar — and they didn’t have to look far. All they needed was to say his name.
“We knew that one of Zion’s main inspirations for the look of the shoe was superhero armor. But when we thought about an icon or symbol that could clearly draw out the shoe’s benefits, the “Z” made perfect sense to us,” says Vianney de Montgolfier, Senior Footwear Designer, Jordan Sport. “It’s the letter for speed, it has the base for power, and it’s maybe the most distinguishable letter in the alphabet. There’s nothing else like it.”

Williamson’s athletic force brings together speed and power to a level that, for White, puts him in rarified air. But Zion made an important impression on H and the brand in another way: his superstardom was joined by a down-to-earth nature rooted in values like love for his family, accountability to those who relied on him and a legacy of impact that should supersede any viral dunk montage viewed millions of times online. As the first Gen-Z athlete in Jordan Brand’s history, Williamson’s commitment to personal values has the cool poise of a veteran leader.

The Jordan x Zion apparel collection blends performance-inspired designs, materials and mobility with the comfort and versatility of everyday streetwear​

Graphics, such as the anime-inspired biceps pose with exclamation marks, express Williamson’s youthfulness and his out-of-this-world strength.​

“I remember talking to Zion once when he was close to the draft, when he said that he needed to go back to class,” says White. “He said that he was in the middle of a few projects with his classmates and that they depended on him. He couldn’t leave them hanging. Boy, that sounds a lot like the Black Cat, doesn’t it? We all have a responsibility to a certain standard. When a mountain of a man stands with the common man, that’s when phenomenal things happen.”

I cant decide if I like the blue void or juvenile pair more
wonder how much the hoodies are.

 

[vegetaray123]

Apparel is dope as hell too...

Blue Void pair is day 1 and I’ll circle back around on the White / Black pair on discount...

I’m actually kind of hyped now after the set-up specs with all that air cushioning...These might mess around and end up being the most comfy basketball sneakers this season...

These things are begging for a triple black colorway too...Make it happen JB...

 

[Public Enemy]

ZNAs probably going to be my first grab.
