A Ma Maniere has officially unveiled its latest and most expansive collaboration yet with Nike, Jordan Brand, and Converse. Dubbed the “While You Were Sleeping” collection, this six-shoe capsule pays homage to the retailer’s 10th anniversary, showcasing a masterful blend of luxury, craftsmanship, and streetwear culture.
Set to begin releasing on August 20, 2024, the collection features reimagined versions of some of the most iconic silhouettes from each brand, including the Air Jordan 3, Air Jordan 4, Air Jordan 39, Nike Air Force 1 Low, Nike Air Max 95, and Converse Weapon Low.
A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 3 “While You Were Sleeping”
The collection kicks off with the Air Jordan 3, which is sure to be a standout. This iteration boasts a sleek black leather upper, complemented by rough-textured suede on the toe guard and heel. The dark violet accents on the perforated suede around the ankle and lace collar add a layer of sophistication, while the quilted lining inside the shoe enhances comfort and luxury. The deconstructed upper gives the shoe a more streamlined silhouette, perfect for those who appreciate subtle elegance.
A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 4 “While You Were Sleeping”
Next in line is the Air Jordan 4, which shares some design cues with the Jordan 3 but stands out in its own right. The upper features a monochromatic light violet hue that covers the entire exterior, creating a sleek and minimalist look. Cream-colored laces and midsoles offer a touch of contrast, while the dark violet lining on the interior adds depth. The deconstructed design continues here, providing a slimmer profile, and the alternating branding on the tongue—featuring the Jumpman logo and A Ma Maniere’s signature “A”—gives the shoe a unique identity.
A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 39 “While You Were Sleeping”
For the first time, A Ma Maniere collaborates on the Air Jordan 39, a model that has not seen much attention in the collaborative space. The design continues the collection’s signature color palette of violet, purple, and black, applied in a two-tone pattern that accentuates the shoe’s modern aesthetic. A gum-like translucent rubber outsole adds a functional yet stylish touch, while A Ma Maniere’s script logo on the midsole ties the design together.
A Ma Maniere x Nike Air Max 95 “While You Were Sleeping”
For Nike, the Air Max 95 gets the A Ma Maniere treatment. The shoe’s iconic gradient design is elevated with exposed stitching on the upper, leather applications on the mudguard and lace harness, and thin roped laces that exude luxury. The retailer’s signature color palette of violet and black is prevalent, making this Air Max 95 a must-have for collectors.
A Ma Maniere x Nike Air Force 1 Low “While You Were Sleeping”
Returning to the Air Force 1 Low, A Ma Maniere adds a fresh twist to the classic silhouette. The shoe features a textured lining with the brand’s “A” pattern, reminiscent of their previous projects. A grey Swoosh complements the light pink upper, while modified perforations on the toe box add a new dimension to the design. In a final touch, the iconic “AIR” on the midsole is replaced with “A MA MANIERE,” marking this pair as truly unique.
A Ma Maniere x Converse Weapon Low “While You Were Sleeping”
Rounding out the collection is the Converse Weapon Low, a silhouette that has seen a resurgence in recent years. A Ma Maniere’s version features a light bone, khaki, and soft pink color scheme, with contrast stitching that adds visual interest. The quilted interior returns for this model, offering both comfort and style, while A Ma Maniere’s logo is debossed into the lateral ankle, making this a subtle yet powerful addition to the collection.
