Nike and Jordan Brand will open the doors this week for a new Mexico City location that’s both their biggest in Latin America and the first dual-brand presence in the world.

In the Jordan space, customers will have access to exclusive “high-heat” footwear releases, as well as hyperlocal apparel and a Workshop experience allowing for customization of the Air Jordan 1. The Lounge will also serve as a gathering place for the basketball community, while the Swoosh caters to soccer with the Nike Football Zone and a Nike By You experience offering customization on club and national kits.
“Nike & Jordan World of Flight Mexico City enables us to serve and celebrate athletes across Latin America and their passion for sport and culture like never before,” Doug Bowles, vice president and general manager for Latin America, said in a press release. “Our exclusive products and member-only events from both brands are an invitation for the Latino community to join the Nike family.”
Floor one is dedicated to women and girls, and the next level hosts Nike By You. In addition to jerseys, customers can also customize footwear and apparel with exclusive graphics and accessories.
