On December 20, 2021, Nike Outlet officially announced its Spring 2022 Retro Collection, most notably the Air Jordan 1 "Dark Blue" colorway - one of the latest releases from Jordan's first signature shoe library . Many sneakerheads have previewed the look of the shoe since last fall, but now Nike has finally released official images of the shoe. From a presentation standpoint, the shoe mimics the color-blocking rhythm of the Air Jordan 1 "Pollen" coming in Fall 2021, but of course utilizing the hue of its name as the main focus . "Dark Marina Blue" lands on smooth leather overlays, Swooshes and ankle flaps, as well as laces and tongue banners. To offset the hue, Jordan Brand painted the toe box, quarter panels, collar and nylon tongue with black paint. The branding is visible through the traditional ball and wing logo, the Nike Air tongue, the former is black, while the latter is contrasted with white. It's designed with an all-white midsole and outsole submerged in "Dark Blue Marina."
