AIR JORDAN 1 HIGH OG "DARK MOCHA": Is it worthy of being the successor to the previous masterpiece "Travis Scott"?

Jordan Brand released a design called Air Jordan 1 High OG “Dark Mocha" on October 31. Among the list of retro colorways released this year, the “Dark Mocha” version has attracted special attention from the sneaker community and is said to remind us of the extremely successful Air Jordan 1 “Travis Scott” version in 2019. Can “Dark Mocha” become a descendant of the previous masterpiece or is it just a copycat design ? Let’s evaluate with The Lucky Star.

Jordan 1 "Dark Mocha" has a clever color scheme, with the heel and collar of the shoe being the brown of coffee mocha beans combined with the creamy white spreading from the toe of the shoe, surrounding the swoosh. The characteristic Black - White details of Jordan are used appropriately on the shoe. The harmonious interwoven color scheme of white - black - brown creates an elegant and luxurious feeling for the shoe.

In addition, "Dark Mocha" scores points for its excellent material blend, the mocha part is suede, the Black-White part is leather, creating a comfortable feeling for the wearer, as well as increasing the luxurious, expensive look of the shoe.

The difference on the "Dark Mocha" is the regular Swoosh design instead of the famous reverse oversize Swoosh like the "Travis Scott", plus the mid-sole is painted pure white instead of ivory white.

The Air Jordan 1 “Travis Scott” is highly regarded for its soft leather material, being one of the best Jordan leather shoes, which is why it costs up to $1,500 on StockX. As for the “Dark Mocha”, Jordan Brand uses regular, quite hard leather, so the price will also be much more “affordable”.

   

Air Jordan 1 High OG "Dark Mocha" is considered one of the most beautiful shoes released in 2020. Although it is not as "fancy" as its predecessor "Travis Scott", it is a reasonable choice. If you like "Travis Scott" but do not have enough money, then join the "Dark Mocha" team.
