Air Jordan 36

IT'S LIGHT WORK.

Since 1985, Jordan Brand has always done things that have never been seen before. Almost forty years later, Jordan continues to bring new light to the game with international athletes that are redefining the blueprint once again. Beaming with talent, it’s about the shine within that makes the new faces of the game radiant on the court. Drawing inspiration from ultraviolet rays, the Air Jordan XXXVI "First Light" celebrates the future of Jordan, the ones who will brighten the way for the next generation of global superstars all across the world.

Light Flex
A minimal but durable Jacquard Leno-Weave upper paired with a dynamic flexible tongue provides a lightweight fit and plush comfort.

Light Feel, Big Energy
A full-length Zoom Air Strobel unit is stitched directly to the upper, sitting right under your foot to minimize weight. An energy-returning Zoom Air unit is stacked underneath the forefoot to add an extra burst of responsiveness off the dribble.

Lightning Quick
A multidirectional outsole pattern provides stop-and-go traction for players who stay on their toes and use quickness to get to their spots.

Secure for Takeoff
A 2-loop band system paired with high sidewalls provides side-to-side stability, whether you're cutting off the ball on defense or taking off to finish on offense.

More Benefits
A hollowed-out section between the outsole and midsole helps reduce weight and exposes the shoe's stabilizing shank (a piece of durable plastic that helps keep the shoe from twisting). A dynamic, flexible tongue includes targeted padding over the top to ease lace pressure and to provide plush comfort without added weight.
