Nike, once again donning its barista apron, is brewing up another coffee-inspired sneaker: the Jordan 1 Low "Mocha." Starbies who?

For those with a keen memory, the Air Jordan 1 Low's big brother, the Jordan 1 High Retro "Dark Mocha," might ring a bell. This high-top version, often called the "poor man's Travis Scott Jordans," was a standout release in 2020. Now, imagine a low-cut version with the same allure. 

The Mocha Jordan 1 Low brings back the barista-approved look in short king glory. Expect those smooth-like-coffee textures of velvety suede and crisp leather, topped with tasty neutrals like black, white, and, of course, Mocha browns. 

Order for Jordan? Your small Mocha-flavored sneaker is ready for pickup.

From "Mocha Dunks" to "Latte 1s," Nike has been on quite the streak with its sneaker pick-me-ups. And the Mocha Jordan 1 Lows certainly satisfy the Swoosh's coffee fix.

In 2023, before first looks were even out, sneakerheads were buzzing about the "Mocha" Lows, making them one of the most anticipated releases of 2024 — next to those buttery Bred 4s.

The Air Jordan 1 Lows aren't expected till later this year (murmurs say they'll land sometime in September). But I must say: the Jordan 1 Low "Mocha" certainly makes for a nice pre-treat to the pending Jordan 1 Low takeover.
