Welcome to Unionversity
Consider this your orientation. Today, we learn from the undisputed masters of elevated basics and streetwear subculture: Chris Gibbs of Union LA and Hiroshi Fujiwara of Fragment Design.
To complete their latest capsule collection, the duo has reunited to put their touch on the silhouette that started it all. This AJ1 isn't just a shoe; it’s a masterclass in detail. It features a color-blocked upper in ultra-premium leather, sporting the exposed-stitch collar that has become a Union LA signature. To finalize the design, both icons have literally signed their work, with Fragment’s lightning bolt and Union’s branding stamped across the collar and heel.
A Legacy of Defiance
To appreciate this drop, you have to respect the heritage. Since the game-winning shot that brought glory to North Carolina, Michael Jordan has been the heartbeat of basketball. When he stepped onto the court in 1985 in the original Air Jordan 1, he didn’t just play the game—he broke league rules and his opponents' will. This collaboration honors that revolutionary spirit by blending 1985 grit with modern street luxury.
