The one that started it all. After almost 30 years of sneaker excellence, Mens Air Jordan Retro 1 Basketball Shoe is taking it back to the basics with the original Air Jordan sneaker. Making its debut alongside his royal Airness back in 1985, this shoe has attained a legendary status comparable to its namesake. Initially being banned by the NBA upon its introduction, the Air Jordan I enjoyed instant popularity and notoriety, becoming a must-have for all fans of Michael Jordan. Dress like his Airness in this timeless classic that is not going anywhere anytime soon. Jordan Brand is kicking off the new year by bringing back its original Air Jordan I in rare form and sporting the original colorway from 1985. Featuring a full leather upper consisting of a white toe box, black Nike Swoosh, and red side panels, this shoe was conceived to match #23 Chicago Bulls jerseys. A white midsole and red outsole complete the shoe and complement the upper.
