Jordan Brand continues to push the boundaries of performance basketball footwear by introducing the Air Jordan 39, the latest entry in the iconic Air Jordan lineup. What makes this release particularly special is the involvement of Michael Jordan himself, who had significant input in the design of the Jordan 39—a rarity in recent years. As the sneaker world eagerly anticipates the various colorways set to drop, Jordan Brand has collaborated with A Ma Maniere, one of its most trusted partners, to create a luxurious take on this new silhouette as part of A Ma Maniere's 10th-anniversary While You Were Sleeping Collection.
The A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 39 While You Were Sleeping features a premium suede construction that exudes sophistication. The color palette draws inspiration from A Ma Maniere's upcoming Air Jordan 3 release, with a mix of black, violet ore, and diffused taupe hues that blend seamlessly across the upper. A unique splatter pattern adds depth to the design, a detail born from an innovative wear-testing process. Jordan Brand took an Air Jordan 29, applied paint, and mimicked MJ's famous crossover step, resulting in paint cracks that were 3D scanned and integrated into the Air Jordan 39's design. A Ma Maniere branding is prominently displayed on the midfoot in white text, while Jumpman logos grace the tongue, adding to the sneaker's premium aesthetic. Underfoot, the Jordan 39 is equipped with a black and gum midsole featuring full-length ZoomX foam and a Zoom Air unit, ensuring top-tier performance on the court.
The A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 39 While You Were Sleeping was released on August 30, 2024 through A Ma Maniere online. A Nike SNKRS release should occur in the coming weeks. Available in men’s sizing, retail is set at $215. Keep it locked to the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
