Full nubuck wraps the upper in that soft, light aqua shade you’ve probably already screenshotted. Black outlines the midsole. Metallic silver pops on the heel tab. A see-through icy outsole gives it that crisp finish sneakerheads love. There are no flashy logos or extra graphics, just pure color play done right.

There are no official pictures yet, but the mock-ups floating around online give a solid preview. Think bright, think smooth, think seasonal. It fits into Jordan’s pattern of releasing vivid, single-tone editions when the leaves start to fall. It makes sense. You want to stand out when everyone else goes dark and dull.
