Jordan chooses Italian craftsmen for ‘pinnacle capsule’
US sportswear brand Jordan Brand is releasing its “pinnacle capsule to date”, only available in China and with each product handmade in Italy.

The Jordan Brand Wings Collection shows “meticulous craftsmanship, rich materials and commitment to excellence”, it said.

It includes basketball-inspired silhouettes, such as a hoodie, varsity jacket, diamond shorts and a tracksuit. Materials include lambskin, cashmere blends and premium fleece. 

The Jordan Wings net sweater is modelled after a nylon basketball net and is hand-stitched by Italian artisans over seven hours.

Accessories are inspired by the Jordan Wings logo, like the Wings-shaped calfskin bag. 

Footwear includes a limited-edition Air Jordan 1 High '85 Wings and Air Jordan 1 Low '85 Wings made in Italy from full-grain Italian leather and features 3-layer hand-painted leather edges. Internal lining is heavy satin and sock liners are poured PU with foot-conforming properties to deliver comfort.
