Jordan Brand Updates the Air Jordan 36 in a Psychic Energy Colorway

— September 15, 2021 — Lifestyle
Jordan Brand introduces the new Psychic Energy colorway detailing the Air Jordan 36 sneaker model. The shoe has been a foundational piece for collaborative projects alongside names such as Jayson Tatum and Lika Doncic. This time around, the basketball sneaker is constructed using a white Jacquard Leno weave as the upper, providing a touch of breathability and function.

It is then lined with a TPU ribbon as well with a minimal reptile texture that makes its way on the tongue and ankle collar in a black hue for a touch of contrast. It has a dramatically large tongue tab that rolls onto the laces marked with the Jumpman logo in a stark bright red. Ribbon foam materials round out the shoe at the white midsole holding a Zoom Air Strobel unit on top of a translucent icy outsole.
