The Air Jordan brand has birthed some absolutely incredible footwear models over the years, such as silhouettes like the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 4 and Air Jordan 11 to name just a few. While the brand’s original purpose was to create performance sneakers for Michael Jordan, over time the label has evolved to much more than that. Now a reputable lifestyle brand in its own right too, Jordan Brand continues to drop incredibly popular sneakers even today, with fashion fans around the world snapping up each release.
Now known for creating sneakers for all the family, it’s no secret that Jordan Brand offers up an incredible selection for women. With plenty of signature pairs from its extensive female artist roster right through to general release colourways too, there really is a better selection than ever before! Here at Crepslocker we’re constantly asked for styling advice, so here’s our no-nonsense guide on how to style Jordans for women.
Which Jordan Model?
As we mentioned earlier, there’s a whole host of different models across the Jordan Brand roster, which can make putting together the perfect outfit easier than ever. While more choice may seem like a bad thing, it actually allows for plenty of different options. If one style doesn’t suit the outfit so well, there’s plenty of other variations available that could work. When choosing a Jordan silhouette to style into an outfit, think about what it might bring to the look as a whole. For example, a chunky pair like the Air Jordan 4 will showcase a retro vibe, drawing more attention to the feet.
Whereas a more contemporary silhouette such as the Air Jordan 13 leans more into the performance sector, offering a slim-fitting and aerodynamic silhouette. It’s also worth noting that classic models such as the Air Jordan 1 will be easier to work into pretty much any outfit. The key here is trial and error, over time, you will likely find that specific silhouettes suit your personal style more than others.
What’s the Occasion?
When it comes to putting together a good outfit, it’s key to pick the right clothes for the occasion. While style is one thing, nobody wants to be left caught out by the weather, or worse still, sticking out amongst the crowd like a sore thumb. If you’re going to be outside a lot in the colder months of the year, we’d recommend opting for a solid pair of Jordans, such as the many GORE-TEX editions that are now available. If you’re heading off to a formal event, perhaps leave the bright pink Jordans at home and opt for something a little more subtle.
While these guidelines may sound like limitations, it’s understanding these basic rules that will help you to sculpt the perfect outfit for any situation. The good news is that when it comes to Jordans, there’s so many different options on the market, meaning you’ll never struggle to find the perfect pair. If you can think of a certain silhouette or colour combination, it likely already exists!
What’s Your Colourway of Choice?
Choosing the right colourway can go a long way to helping your Jordans work perfectly within an existing outfit. Thankfully, there’s many different options available, so you won’t struggle to find the perfect option. Here at Crepslocker we’re big fans of OG colourways, with options like the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” and Air Jordan 3 “Cement” springing to mind. However, with that being said, contemporary options such as the Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” and Air Jordan 1 “Yellow Toe” are also incredibly popular with our customers.
Think about the colours in the rest of your outfit too, are you going for a colour-coordinated look? Or could you outfit do with a splash of colour to liven it up? Once you do this a few times, you’ll begin to develop a taste for pairing colours, which will make crafting the perfect outfit easier than ever before.
Keep Them Fresh
Once you’ve selected the perfect pair of Jordans, don’t underestimate the importance of keeping them fresh. If there’s one thing that can ruin an otherwise perfectly good outfit, it’s dirty sneakers.
