Singer-Designed Basketball Shoes

J Balvin's Friends and Family Exclusive Has Been Revealed

— June 23, 2022 — Pop Culture
J Balvin has unveiled the first look at his reworked ‘Air Jordan 2’ silhouette, featuring a soft green color palette accented by pink detailing on the lace tips. Boasting clean white laces, the signature Jordan Brand ball and wings logo on the tongue, and a cushioned mint green upper, the sneaker comes just after the singer’s previous sneaker releases with the Jordan company. The sneaker will be released as a friends and family exclusive, so regular customers won’t be able to find these sneakers on any shelf.

The ‘Air Jordan 2’ has definitely become one of Jordan’s favorite silhouettes for collaborations, with previous releases tapping the likes of Union LA, A Ma Maniére, Maison Château Rouge, and more. J Balvin’s blue ‘Air Jordan 2’ colorway is expected to arrive in late 2022.
