From Nike Dunks inspired by syrup-drenched waffles to last year's shoe box themed collection, it's often some of the most obscure things that inspire Nike's best-selling footwear. The upcoming Jordan 1 First Class Flight is a perfect example!

In one of the more imaginative styles for 2019, this AJ1 is a homage to Nike's shipping department. It might sound like a gimmick but the attention to detail on these is nothing short of astounding!

Just like the perforated sticker of a shipping label, the premium leather on this pair is covered with laser-cut holes and features worn creasing.

The look gets even more radical with the use of vibrant yellow, the same Hi-Vis colour used at Nike's distribution centre. Finally, just to make sure that package doesn't get lost, barcodes are stamped at the heel and to the sidewall.

The Nike AJ1 'Shipping Department' is scheduled to launch on Thursday, 26th September. With plenty of hype for this exclusive, sizes are expected to sellout on the morning of release!
