Unveiling the Jordan 1 Low "Voodoo Alternate": A Spooky Resurrection of a Modern Classic

Just over a year ago, the esteemed Jordan Brand paid homage to Zion Williamson's Bayou roots with a unique Air Jordan 1 Low OG release. Fast forward to the present, and the Jumpman team weaves a captivating narrative by breathing new life into this past release, casting a spell with an alternate colorway.

Zion Williamson reveals the Alternate Voodoo colorway during a pregame

Recently showcased by Zion Williamson during a Nuggets game, the Jordan 1 Low "Voodoo Alternate" maintains the essence of its predecessor, embracing the same textures and voodoo-inspired intricacies. However, what sets this rendition apart is its fresh and spookier color palette, promising an alluring twist to a modern classic.

Incorporating voodoo into the design of the sneaker

Jordan Brand masterfully preserves the voodoo-inspired elements, using materials and design touches reminiscent of the mystical voodoo dolls. The sneaker boasts a haunting combination of purples, greys, and swampy shades that echo the rich cultural tapestry of New Orleans. Accentuating the eerie aesthetic, a vibrant volt green illuminates the logo hits on the Nike Air tongue and the colossal Wings at the heel.

The design, details, and composition of an artpiece

The attention is in the details, quite literally, as hemp threads compose the thick roped laces and delicate stitching, connecting each component of the sneaker. Pony hair graces the toe-boxes, offering a touch of luxury (no, it's not Zion's actual hair), while macabre skull imagery intensifies the overall unsettling yet captivating outlook.

All the release details we know so far

As we wait eagerly to hear about more information on the release, we're not sure what will happen. Jordan Brand hasn't said if the Zion Air Jordan 1 Low OG Alternate Voodoo will have a general release or not. The only rumors that have surfaced is that it will be a PE exclusive according to Jordan Brand and Nike Senior Designer Kelsey Amy. Until more information about the sneaker develops, stay locked in for further updates.
