The Gap

The Gap

A milestone anniversary couldn’t rely on a traditional product release. Jordan Brand needed to transform the legendary story of the “banned” Air Jordan 1 into a connected consumer experience that celebrated the brand’s legacy, rewarded loyal fans, and reinforced its cultural influence in the city where Michael Jordan built it.

The Expansion

The Expansion

Rather than centering the launch around a single event, we developed a week-long consumer journey blending exclusivity, luxury retail, hospitality, and culture. The experience moved from Concierge23 and SNKRS Pass to Unbannable and Nina’s Soul Supply—an underground warehouse experience celebrating Chicago’s music and creative culture.
