Jordan Brand unveils a [Mocha](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mocha-paisley) Brown colorway of the low-cut [Air Jordan 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/latte-colorway) sneaker model for the season. The earthy palette is fun yet neutral, making it very versatile and simplistic. The sneaker is complete in a rich chocolate brown hue coating the suede material that makes up the overlay.

This continues onto the Swoosh branding accent that is seen on the lateral side of the shoe. All of this rests on top of a clean white leather base foundation. Some contrast of black is then seen on the tongue, the ankle collar, and the laces over the forefoot. The rest of the shoe includes the reflective gray at the heel, the [Jumpman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hornetscolored) logo, and a quilted socklining in pink.
