Mercedes Created Custom Air Jordan Sneakers With Artist Elijah Rutland

Mercedes-Benz dipped its toe into the streetwear game in 2021. The automaker partnered with skateboard company Palace on a line of AMG Black Series-inspired shirts, as well as clothing designer Heron Preston for airbag-inspired merch – that's right, airbags. Maybach even released a concept car created by late fashion and sneaker designer Virgil Abloh.

Now Mercedes has teamed up with sneaker customizer and artist Elijah Rutland – who goes by the online pseudonym Fix My Sole – for a pair of custom Nike Jordan Air 1s that any Merc owner would love to have. The one-of-a-kind sneakers feature a white Mercedes-Benz star logo stamped on the toebox, with airbrushed silver and black accents to match the company's signature colors.
