James Whitner’s A Ma Maniére continues to redefine what a sneaker collaboration can be.
Introduction:
With every drop, the Atlanta-based boutique proves that luxury streetwear can carry a message, one that’s rooted in purpose, resilience, and cultural storytelling.
Their latest project with Jordan Brand, the A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 6 ‘Smokey Mauve’, is no different. Dubbed Built For This, the Holiday 2025 campaign celebrates perseverance, self-determination, and the triumph that comes from enduring adversity.
Design Details:
Dressed in the boutique’s signature muted palette, the Air Jordan 6 ‘Smokey Mauve' blends elegance and emotion. A rich nubuck upper is paired with subtle mauve accents, translucent detailing, and co-branded woven touches that speak to A Ma Maniére’s refined aesthetic. Inside, the quilted lining, now a signature hallmark of past AMM x Jordan drops like the AJ3 and AJ4, adds a sense of luxury and legacy, while waxed laces allow for personal expression.

The story doesn’t stop at the sneaker. Inside each box lies a piece of original artwork by Jammie Holmes, titled Malcolm. The painting depicts a young man listening to Malcolm X, a powerful symbol of endurance and hope that ties perfectly into the collection’s message of transformation and faith.
Rounding out the collection is a capsule of premium apparel, including a monogram-lined track jacket, matching pants, and a knit polo, all exuding understated sophistication.
