Born and bred in the concrete jungle, Awake NY continues to make waves in the global streetwear scene. Their authentic vision, rooted in diversity, culture, and the relentless grind, has solidified their status as a true New York brand.

Earlier this year, their collaboration with Jordan Brand sent shockwaves through the sneaker community. The elegant yet rugged Air Ship design, a nod to the iconic Air Jordan 1, perfectly captured the essence of NYC bravado and founder Angelo Baque’s deep-rooted love for the Air Jordan legacy.

The collaboration was a storytelling masterpiece, highlighting Michael Jordan’s history, Baque’s experiences in the downtown streetwear scene, and a heartfelt tribute to his sneaker grails. Exotic snakeskin, bold logo embroidery, and meticulous attention to detail in the packaging elevated the Air Ship to one of the most compelling collaborations of the year.

About the Awake NY x Jordan Air Ship “Royal”

Now, Awake NY is returning with a second colorway: the Awake NY x Jordan Air Ship “Royal”. A homage to one of the original Air Jordan 1 colorways, this iteration features a sharp blue snakeskin ankle collar, heel strip, and Swoosh. The packaging remains true to the first release, complete with a map of Fort Greene and a collection of stickers by Brent Rollins.

Release Details

The Awake NY x Jordan Air Ship “Royal” will drop on 2 November 2024, exclusively via Awake NY alongside a full collection of Jordan x Awake NY apparel in Royal blue. The pair will retail for US$150.
