Jordan Brand continues its creative streak by teaming up once again with BMX rider and culture shaper Nigel Sylvester. The result: the Air Jordan 1 Low “Better With Time”, a bold, urban silhouette rooted in movement and street identity. Known for his distinct riding style and storytelling beyond traditional sports, Sylvester translates his BMX roots into one of Jordan’s most wearable models.

A rugged design built for the streets

The “Nitro” comes dressed in smooth black leather and features cream-colored Swooshes, a vivid red outsole, and subtle camouflage overlays at the heel. The combination evokes toughness and precision—two core aspects of Sylvester’s riding. The lateral profile remains clean, while the interior reveals a special detail: the “Jordan Biking Co. – EST. 2017” tag, referencing Nigel’s connection to the brand and his personal journey.

Function meets form

Though this is a lifestyle shoe, the materials and construction suggest functionality. The leather upper is durable yet flexible, while the classic Air Jordan 1 sole unit ensures all-day comfort. This pair is built for real use—not just display.
