Houston-based artist Travis Scott has an impressive portfolio of over twelve joint ventures with Nike, Inc., one of which was almost a highly anticipated Air Jordan 1 "Black Dark Mocha."
In the usual course of footwear endeavors, La Flame and his Oregon-based crew experimented with various iterations of their renowned "Dark Mocha" collaboration from September 2019. Thanks to the GOAT app, those of us who were not privy to the behind-the-scenes action can now feast our eyes on an unreleased variant of the contemporary classic Air Jordan.
The pair showcases a plush fabric across the majority of the upper, opting for a faded "Black" hue instead of the customary "White." The lower heel panels harmonize with leather, rather than suede, ankle flaps and a reversed lateral swoosh in a rich brown shade.
Additionally, the perforated toe box deviates from the retail version, drawing a more distinct contrast between the sample and the recent Air Jordan 1 "Palomino" release, just a mere two months ago. To complete the picture, the sample is finished with "Sail" midsoles and pitch-dark outsoles.
As part of the Black Friday 2023 (BF23) festivities, GOAT is offering a unique glimpse into Scott and his team's abandoned collaboration. The event, accessible through the GOAT app, will continue until 7:15pm PT (10:15pm ET) on Friday, November 24th. Among the items up for auction is Travis Scott's exclusive "Black Dark Mocha" Jordan 1 sample, as well as other coveted pairs like the Off-White x Futura x Nike Dunk Low "New York Mets" and the unreleased Dunk Low Pro SB "Freddy Krueger."

How to tell if Jordan 1 black are fake?
Look inside the shoe and you'll find the size label adorned with the iconic Jordan Jumpman logo (above). In contrast, the counterfeit shoe features a tag that is fused to the back of the tongue. On an authentic Jordan 1, however, the tag is skillfully stitched to the interior.
