Erlebniswelt-fliegenfischen News Don C brings a taste that is both refreshing and familiar to street kids, which is why he was one of the most important figures in the world of sneakers throughout his 2010s run with Nike/Jordan and currently a force in the realm of elevated team gear. His collaborations were eaten up by the community as a whole, and rightfully so; the Don C x Jordan concord Legacy 312 Ghost Green is simply one of the best Jordan collabs ever, while a clear trickle-down effect from his infusion of other Air Force models has been apparent in recent years.
While it’s been years since Don C’s partnership with Nike, Inc. has seen any fruit, the Chicago native has swooped in with a swift reminder of the good ‘ol days. He reveals what appears to be some unreleased samples of his Jordan concord Legacy 312 Ghost Green and Air Force 1 collaboration, leaving us wondering if the Swoosh will ever resuscitate its linkage with the Chicago Don.
Jordan Don Flight Sherpa Hoodie Blackened Blue Don C x Jordan concord Legacy 312 Ghost Green revealed in never-before-seen gold colorway; it’s not too far off from the “Beach” colorway that infamously released as part of a $650 shoes-and-hat package in early 2016.
Up next is his Air Force 1 collaboration, which infused elements of the Air Force 2 and Air Force 3 — a silhouette at enter of the first-ever Nike Jordan Hydro 5 Retro White Fire Red 555501-101. The Just Don Air Force 1 first dropped in late 2017 in an all-white colorway exclusively at Complex Con, then again in 2020 in an all-blue colorway.
It doesn’t appear that Don C and Nike/Jordan have any plans of working together again, but it’s fun to ponder a reunion after seeing these old samples emerge.
