A new version of the Dave White x Air Jordan 1 Retro will be released to benefit the WINGS For The Future Program. The program was designed to help motivate the youth "with the pillars of education, sport and creativity in mind," according to Jordan Brand.
The design of the Dave White x Air Jordan 1 Retro 'WINGS For The Future' version brings a really interesting layered look that's not normally seen from the brand. There's several contrasting colors and graphics which includes an elephant skin pattern, splattered black graphic on white, and hints of red work that meshes well together. Additional details such as the Air Jordan wing logo on the heel patch and the Jumpman logo on the back heel ties everything nicely.
There's no word on pricing or release date, but these are limited editions, so keep an eye out for them.
