Three Questions We're Asking About This Rumored Air Jordan 1 Satin "SBB"

As we have anticipated, more Jordan Brand drops are on the way and hot releases that are catering to the ladies. We have been asking for sneakHER heat for years, and Jumpman seems to be listening. One of our specific gripes during venting sessions is that we want the dope colorways and an inclusive sizing run. Even though we are thankful that we can fit in grade school sizing, a ladies' shoe should be constructed for our feet. Not men's or kid's foot structures.
I remember wanting the popular Air Jordan 1 Shattered Backboard release from 2015. Unfortunately, finding my size ended up being a whole challenge in itself. For all the ladies that missed out on this sneaker, Jordan Brand is making up for it - we think. A picture has surfaced of a Shattered Backboard colorway, but with a twist. This signature AJ1 silhouette that is colorblocked in orange, white, and black... will be for the ladies. WOOT! Before we go all in excited for this sneaker, we do have 3 small questions to lay on the table.
1. WHAT WILL THE QUALITY LOOK LIKE?
This is probably our top question regarding kicks. While thought to have been a full on satin remix, reports note that the shoe will be a leather and satin construction with details similar to the Air Jordan 1 Season of Her.
2. HOW EXCLUSIVE WILL THIS AIR JORDAN 1 BE?
Previous Jordans that have used satin material (i.e. satin Royal and Banned) have been extremely limited. Could this ladies drop fall on the side of a majority of Ls being taken? We would like to say no, and see this as an opportunity for the sneakHER lovers to grab a really dope pair. Just in case, lock in those plugs and lurk the resell market.
3. DID WE MAKE THIS HAPPEN?
We can't deny that social media has provided a whole new platform for influence when it comes to brands and awareness. Specifically, females have been placed in positions to create more options for the female masses and also voice how we feel about footwear and streetwear in general. Let's keep raising our voices and platforms to bring more fly gear our way.
Given past releases, we expect for these to drop with a price tag of around $140-$190 and rumor has it that we need to be on the look out. By the way, these are perfect for adding that pop of color into your closet. Spring/summer SZN brings out the colors.
