Over the last three years, Billie Eilish has made waves throughout music and fashion. Fresh off the release of her second album Happier Than Ever and a dazzling Met Gala appearance, Eilish debuted her first Air Jordan collab.
For the Jordan 15’s, Eilish offers a simplistic and tonal take. The muted tan shade allows room to show off the Jordan 15’s unique build. Eilish’s Blohsh logo faces upwards on the shoe’s spacious tongue, with her full name also spelled out on the insoles.

The 15’s have historically been viewed as the “black sheep” of the Air Jordan family. Even designer Tinker Hatfield deemed it his worst Air Jordan design. However, Eilish has long expressed her love for pieces others might consider “ugly” or “weird.” Eilish could have the counterculture star power needed to shift the 15 from unfavorable afterthought to streetwear staple.
Eilish’s Jordan 1 KO is dipped in her signature slime green monochrome, complete with intricate details and textures. Aside from a nylon tongue, the uppers on the shoe are entirely leather. The signature Nike swoosh adorns the quarter panels while double-stitched seams surround each piece for added texture. Eilish’s Blohsh logo is once again placed on the tongue with debossed Air Jordan wings gracing the lateral collar flap. The 1 KO’s are constructed using completely sustainable materials.
