A Look at Mark Wahlberg’s Custom Air Jordan Sneaker Inspired by Transformers

Mark Wahlberg collaborated with Jordan Brand to create a 1/1 sneaker that is “more than meets the eye”.

Mark Wahlberg, in coming up with a sneaker design with Jordan Brand for his custom shoe, initially wanted to create a pair of Air Jordans that could “transform”.

In an interview with Jordan Brand, the Hollywood actor said his plan was to have the Air Jordan 4 silhouette transform into the Jordan 5.

However, Jordan Brand didn’t roll with Wahlberg’s idea due to its complexity.

Eventually, Wahlberg came back down to earth and settled on the futuristic Jordan 5 silhouette for his custom Air Jordan Transformer PE.
