Singer-songwriter Billie Eilish has teamed up with Air Jordan and comes out with a bright green Air Jordan 1. Those who know Billie Eilish a little know that the singer is a fan of the neon green colour. From outfits to hair colour, neon green has become the American singer's signature colour.
The Air Jordan 1 KO 'Ghost' will be released on 30 September 2021.
Billie Eilish as a style icon
Billie Eilish rose to fame in 2015 with her song 'Ocean Eyes'. Together with her brother, she creates and sings all her songs. She has already won seven Grammys with this at her young age. Besides her successful music career, Billie is also known for her clothing style.
Billie's style is best described as oversized, baggy and bold. Until this year, she dressed mainly in wide-leg trousers with matching jumpers or jackets from brands such as Louis Vouitton, Gucci and Burberry. These baggy outfits became the singer's trademark and when she appeared at the Met Gala in 2021 in a pink ballroom dress, it also came as a shock to many.

In the Air Jordan 1 KO 'Ghost' in collaboration with Billie Eilish, we see a familiar colour. The silhouette of the sneaker consists entirely of a neon green colour. The upper consists of bright green leather and the tongue of the shoe is made of nylon.
On the tongue the logo 'Bloshsh' is printed. This asymmetrical little figure is Billie Eilish's logo, which can also be seen on her own merch. The insole and outsole have the same bright green colour and the laces match the rest of the sneaker.
The colour of the Air Jordan 1 KO 'Ghost' is typical of Billie. In an episode of 'Sneaker Shopping With Complex' (2019) It can be seen that the singer is holding a bright green sneaker several times.
She said the Air Jordan 1 'Gatorade' and the Don C x Jordan Legacy 312 NRG 'Ghost Green' were cool sneakers. In her own collaboration, we also see nods to these colorways.
Billie's AJ1 shares the same colour as the Don C x Jordan Legacy 312 NRG 'Ghost Green'. Unlike the Air Jordan 1 KO 'Ghost', this sneaker is not completely green, but most of the upper does share this colour.
The Air Jordan 1 'Gatorade' is a lime-coloured sneaker. The silhouette consists of the same colour from head to toe. This is also the case with the Billie Eilish x Air Jordan 1, although the colour does differ from the 'Gatorade'.

In addition to the Air Jordan KO 'Ghost, Billie is also releasing another sneaker. Together with Nike, the singer has given the Air Jordan 15 a makeover. In contrast to the bright green colour of the Air Jordan 1, the AJ 15 has been given a neutral beige colour. The chunky model has been given a beige colour from head to toe. The shoe has a matte look and is made of leather.
For many, the Air Jordan 15 is their least favourite model. Billie, on the other hand, is a fan of this model, partly because the rest of the world thinks it is ugly. The shoe has a somewhat futuristic look and Billie's logo can be found in the insole.
The Billie Eilish x Air Jordan KO 'Ghost' will be released on 30 September 2021. On the same date, the Billie Eilish x Air Jordan 15 will also be released.
