Richfresh Jetpack Sneaker Release Date JD Sports

Patrick Henry, the individual behind the Los Angeles-based luxury brand Richfresh, is launching his first sneaker this weekend with the Jetpack, pictured here.

The Richfresh Jetpack will launch exclusively at JD Sports tomorrow in a handful of colorways. The silhouette was designed in collaboration with Udi Avshalom and his sneaker development lab, Industry Mercenary, and features a low-cut design on the knit upper designed that’s both snug and easy to slide your feet into. Additional design elements include a stabilizer plate on the midsole that provides springiness with each step. The shoe gets its Jetpack moniker from the outsole traction modeled after rocket ship thrusters and designed to handle various terrains.

“To me, the difference is in the mission,” Henry explains to Complex about what makes his sneakers different from the competition. “With my tailoring background, I honestly might be the pickiest guy on the planet, and Udi has seen it all in sneakers, so it’s almost impossible to wow him. We had a dangerous combination of two perfectionists pushing each other to their limit, and we set the bar so high.”

Readers who are interested in copping the Richfresh Jetpack can do so starting tomorrow, Dec. 7, at Jdsports.com, including at select JD Sports stores.
