Billie Eilish x Air Jordan sneakers are coming soon.
The Grammy-winning musician (and self-proclaimed sneakerhead) has favored iconic shoes in the past and has already expressed interest in a collaboration with Nike’s Air Jordan brand.
Upcoming limited edition sneakers feature a vibrant, monochrome ‘Ghost Green’ color scheme similar to the Don C Legacy 312 and ‘Gatorade’ design, both hand-picked by Eilish in a 2019 episode of the Sneaker video series. Shopping by Complex.
The internet got its first glimpse of the new shoes in June this year when PVA Sneakers leaked photos on Instagram. They also feature Eilish’s iconic Blohsh stick figure logo on the tongue, while the sockliner shows his name alongside the beloved Jumpman design.
According to HypeBeast, each pair of sneakers also comes with a Billie Eilish x Air Jordans co-branded notebook.
Will Billie Eilish x Air Jordan sneakers be vegan?
Eilish herself is vegan and Nike is increasingly moving towards sustainable, vegan-friendly materials in its company-wide shoe designs.
While the majority of existing Air Jordan models feature a mix of synthetic leather and animal origin, some modern varieties (such as the Jordan Flight Flex) are suitable for vegans and incorporate 100% synthetic materials.
The original 1985 Air Jordan KOs were mostly made of canvas, and actress Maggie Baird, Eilish’s mother, shared a story on Instagram saying the new shoes are vegan. LIVEKINDLY has contacted Nike for more information but has yet to receive a response.
Eilish and Air Jordan’s highly anticipated sneakers will launch on September 30, according to zSneakerHeadz– an essential source of information on Nike and Jordan versions.
“You don’t have to be called an activist to talk about what’s right”
Earlier this month, Eilish and Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, PhD (marine biologist and founder and CEO of Ocean Collectiv) discussed climate change and “how to think globally and act locally” in an article for Nike.
The pair offered helpful suggestions on how people can help, especially in combining your unique set of skills with what brings you joy in getting the job done that needs to be done. “You don’t have to be called an activist to talk about what’s right,” Eilish says.
“Raise your voice, live and vote your environmental values, and change the status quo for climate justice, sustainable fashion and climate policy,” writes Johnson.
Eilish’s signature Air Jordans won’t launch until the end of the month, but in the meantime, check out LIVEKINDLY’s full guide to vegan shoes here.
