A rare Air Jordan 1 Utility sample made in collaboration with Zion Williamson has just surfaced — and it's a real treat for fans of both sneakers and anime. Inspired by the popular show Naruto, this sneaker pays tribute to the Hidden Leaf Village and was designed as part of a special concept project that never hit the stores.
This unreleased prototype is built on the Air Jordan 1 High Utility Stash, known for its military-style features like stash pockets, zippers, and even a removable pouch. The colors — olive green, black suede, and navy blue — are meant to represent the look of elite ninjas (or shinobi) from the show.
But it doesn't stop there. The shoe includes Naruto-inspired touches throughout — like a metal Konohagakure plate on the heel (a nod to the ninja headbands in the anime), and a bright red Uzumaki swirl inside the shoe, honoring Naruto’s family symbol.
Even though it was never released to the public, this Naruto x Air Jordan 1 Utility remains a rare and special piece in sneaker culture — especially for fans of Zion and anime. It’s a perfect example of how pop culture, sports, and fashion can come together to create something truly unique.
