Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG SP Travis Scott Mocha

Overview:

The Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG SP “Travis Scott Mocha” is widely regarded as one of the defining collaborations of the modern sneaker era. Released in 2019, the pair reworked the classic Air Jordan 1 Low silhouette through Travis Scott’s distinct design language, introducing subtle but impactful changes that set it apart from traditional Jordan releases.

Rather than dramatically altering the model, the collaboration refined familiar elements while adding a signature twist that instantly made it recognisable.

Design & Details:

The upper combines smooth white leather with rich Dark Mocha suede overlays, creating a balanced and wearable colour palette. Black paneling across the toe box and midfoot adds depth, while the oversized reversed Swoosh on the lateral side immediately distinguishes the pair from standard Air Jordan 1 releases.

Cactus Jack branding appears subtly on the heel and tongue, reinforcing the identity of the collaboration without overwhelming the silhouette. The Sail midsole gives the shoe a slightly aged aesthetic, complementing the earthy tones throughout the upper.

The OG low-cut construction keeps the pair versatile and easy to wear, whether styled casually or kept strictly as a collector’s piece.

Personal Collection Notes:

I was fortunate enough to win this pair directly through Nike SNKRS at retail. Since release, it has remained DSWT in my collection with original packaging and spare laces included.

This is easily one of my favourite pairs in my archive. The combination of Dark Mocha suede and clean white leather feels timeless, while the reversed Swoosh still stands out years later without feeling forced or gimmicky.

In hand, the material quality and detailing elevate the shoe beyond the hype surrounding its release. For me, this remains one of the most complete collaborations of the modern era not simply because of its resale value, but because the design has genuinely aged well.
