In September 1985, Nike and MJ launched the Air Jordan 1. A month later, they were “banned” by the league. Although the AJ1 is a sports and streetwear icon now, back when the sneakers debuted, they were highly disruptive and instantly revolutionary. While the league may have tried to stop MJ from lacing up in the original AJ1, they couldn’t do anything to temper the fans, so “They Can’t Stop You From Wearing Them” became a defiant rallying cry. Now, the spirit of the sneaker is brought to life through the ‘Rebellionaire’ Air Jordan 1, which features that same not-so-subtle reminder printed all over the style’s upper, and includes a Red “X” mark on the heel to commemorate the birth of the banned legend.
Summoned with the same tooling as the 2021 ‘University Blue’, pink hues fill the upper of this one, using suede throughout for a soft-touch guise. Speckled mudguards maintain its durability, while Jumpman logos are perched on the heel and tongue alike. Rubber soles keep things grippy and hardwearing underfoot, and visible Air units complete the classic look while delivering the best court comfort around.
The 2000 icon is re-mastered for every day with an innovative Nike Flyknit upper. Now lighter than ever, the Air Presto Ultra Flyknit couples a woven upper with a cored-out Nike Ultra sole. The new take on the running icon is outfitted in versatile fashion with a black and white colorway.
