After what seemed like a dry spell of top-selling sneakers from Jordan Brand, the Air Jordan 1 Dark Marina Blue has arrived. One can argue that this release is the beginning of an abundance of highly desirable sneaker releases from Nike and Yeezy, bringing some much-needed life back to release calendars. If you were able to get your hands on these Air Jordan 1s, then itā€™s time to put together A Perfect Fit to match.

Coming in a variety of colourways and materials, customers tend to find at least one pair of Air Jordan 1s that resonate with their tastes, with this latest Dark Marina Blue not being an exception. The Air Jordan 1 Dark Marina Blue follows a colour blocking technique that is tried and true for the silhouette. Black and blue leather are used throughout the sneakerā€™s upper, sharing a similar look as one of the Jordan 1ā€™s original 1985 colourways, the Royal. A black Jordan Wings logo is stamped on the ankle, a consistent design element that pays homage to the origins of the Air Jordan 1. The tones of the sneakerā€™s black and blue leather make it an easy sneaker to pair with a lot of great pieces. So whether you just need a useful suggestion for what to wear or are simply looking for a matching accessory, check out StockX for your Perfect Fit needs.

KAWS x The North Face Nuptse Jacket Blue Purple

KAWSā€™ The North Face collaboration finally made its official release statewide, which has helped resale prices come down just in time for sneaker and streetwear fans to rock pieces with this Air Jordan 1. The Nuptse jacket from the collection stands out as a solid addition to these Jordans, mainly for the jacket’s similar shades of blue and black throughout its ripstop nylon shell. This jacket will also keep you warm while looking your best as its 700 down-filled padding brings total insulation to your upper body.

Cactus Plant Flea Market Born Again Hooded Sweatshirt

Despite the appropriate pronunciation of the hoodie being <ji> instead of <jeÉŖ>, we all need to be Born Again to escape these stressful times. Regardless of how you say it, this hoodie brings an extra layer of heat to your outfit and Jordans. The Cactus Plant Flea Market Born Again Hooded Sweatshirt is made entirely out of 100% thick cotton and a bold puff print ā€œYe Must Be Born Againā€ graphic on the front. This hoodie is an easy option for these Jordan 1s, but its black and white colourway will also go with just about anything you pair it with. And if youā€™re in need of some other colours to match your other kicks, the hoodie comes in an assortment of color options as well.

Nike x Cactus Plant Flea Market Anorak Teal

If youā€™re looking for something a bit lighter to prep for the upcoming spring, this anorak might do the trick. In 2019, Nike and Cactus Plant Flea Market collaborated on a capsule of sport-centric apparel, consisting of a hockey jersey, a pair of track pants, and some other items including this anorak. The Nike x Cactus Plant Flea Market Anorak brings an abundance of logos throughout its nylon material, each done in CPFMā€™s recognizable style font. Though its teal isnā€™t exactly the same as Dark Marina Blue, both the anorak and the sneakerā€™s significantly black upper make it a suitable choice when trying to find an outfit to match.

Amiri Stack Mid Rise Skinny Jeans Black

Black pants seem to be a constant choice for A Perfect Fit and thatā€™s for good reason. Black pants are versatile and offer a slimming effect to any wearer. Combine that with a pair of slimming sneakers, like a Jordan 1, you get an outfit that is complementary in look and fit. Amiriā€™s Stack Mid Rise Skinny Jeans make for a great option for the Air Jordan 1 Dark Marina Blue. The jeansā€™ black wash is easy to wear with just about any sneaker. And their Mid Rise stacked cut will sit right atop of the Jordan 1s, perfectly showing off your new kicks.

Louis Vuitton Duo Messenger Black

While weā€™re on the subject of black clothing, black accessories can also play the same versatile role. Similar to the aforementioned Amiri jeans, the Louis Vuitton Duo Messenger bag is an easy choice for those looking for a matching accessory. The Duo Messenger, as the name suggests, is kind of like getting two bags for the price of one. Each bag comes with a crossbody bag and a detachable coin purse, both of which are made of full-grain cowhide leather and feature LVā€™s classic monogram debossed throughout. This bag is the right amount of casual and luxury to elevate your outfit and bring more shine to the Air Jordan 1s.Ā
