How To Cop the Spider-Man-Themed Air Jordan 1 "Next Chapter"

Sneakerheads and Spider-Man fans alike will no doubt remember the chaos surrounding 2018’s Air Jordan 1 “Origin Story” release, but now Jordan Brand has prepped a follow-up sneaker to celebrate the film’s sequel, dubbed “The Next Chapter”. Sticking to the theme of riffing on the iconic Air Jordan 1 “Chicago”, the pair brings in references to the Miles Morales Spider-Man movies, making use of the film's unique art style to create a serious collector’s shoe.

While its predecessor caused a bit of a riot on drop day, the Air Jordan 1 “Next Chapter” is shaping up to be one of the hottest releases of the year, so we’ve pulled together a complete guide to securing the W on drop day (without getting a chair thrown at your head). Read on to find out all the ways you can get your hands on the sneakers, and don’t forget to hit the links to set your release reminders ahead of the drop.

The Air Jordan 1 “Next Chapter” marks the release of the new Spider-Man film set in the Miles Morales Spider-Verse. It follows the release of the Air Jordan 1 “Origin Story” which dropped to celebrate the previous movie, which currently resells for around £400.

The Air Jordan 1 “Next Chapter” follows typical “Chicago” colour blocking, but also takes inspiration from the unique art styles that make up the “Spider-Verse”. It features a bright white base and a patent black collar and Swoosh, while red overlays come in a mix of materials, and sport cartoonish designs on the eyestays and ankle flaps. The shoe has also been treated to a glow-in-the-dark outsole, a nice call-back to the reflective details on the “Origin Story” pair.

The Air Jordan 1 “Next Chapter” is set to drop in full-family sizing. Be sure to check out our Air Jordan 1 size guide to know exactly how the Air Jordan 1 fits.

The “Next Chapter” Air Jordan 1 will drop on the 20th of May.
