In 2021, Jordan Brand and the NFL teamed up with six kids from the Fuel Up to Play 60 program for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to design an Air Jordan 36 colorway for the brand’s gridiron athletes: Davante Adams, Stephon Gilmore, and Cameron Jordan.

The six kids participated in a Jordan Wings Design program, marking the first time the program was conducted with kids outside of Jordan Brand’s traditional WINGS partner organizations.

Through Zoom calls with designers and athletes, the kids executed an Air Jordan 36 from visualization to the concept and the final design. Each kid was paired up with an athlete that played in their respective hometown (i.e two kids from New Orleans were partnered with Cameron Jordan, a New Orleans Saints defensive end).

Take a look at the designs below, and learn more about the WINGS program here.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
