Perhaps the most iconic sneaker of all-time, this original “Chicago” colorway is the cornerstone to any sneaker collection. Made famous in 1985 by Michael Jordan, the shoe has stood the test of time, becoming the most famous colorway of the Air Jordan 1. This 2015 release saw the Chicago colorway return to its most accurate construction since the first retro in 1994, complete with Nike Air branding on the tongue. Show The Nike “Air Jordan 1” is one of the most iconic designs in the history of both streetwear and basketball, and is a key part of the origin of the Air Jordan brand for Nike. Designed by Peter Moore, the Air Jordan 1s were worn by Michael Jordan in 1984 and 1985, as well as modified versions in 1986 (after a broken foot Michael endured). In 1984, Nike gave Michael Jordan his own signature line of shoes and clothes, which was pivotal in Michael agreeing to sign with Nike. It was the first time the brand did anything like this, and it paved the way for many of the player collaborations we now see. In terms of the shoe itself, the original Air Jordan 1s were so popular and successful that Nike continued to make new signature Air Jordans each season. This tradition continued beyond Michael’s retirement, and Nike is currently on the Air Jordan 37. These specific shoes are in the iconic retail “Chicago” colorway, and are perhaps the most recognizable for Michael, as well as the Nike brand. From the day it launched, Air Jordans have always represented the pinnacle of sneaker design. The shoes are unmatched when it comes to quality, craftsmanship, materials, innovation, performance and, of course, style.

If you haven’t make sure you check out our earlier post about the story behind Jordan's rise as a basketball star and sneaker magnate. Today in this article we list the 15 original Jordan 1 colorways for your convenience. 1. Nike Air Jordan 1 Black/Red ('Bred'/ 'Banned') The OG of OGs, the 'Bred' colorway is probably most famous for being 'banned' by the NBA. The real story is a bit more nuanced (it was actually an Air Ship), but it's a legendary story that did the Jordan Brand a lot of good from a marketing perspective. Also, a brilliant colorway nonetheless.

Nike Air Jordan 1 White/Black-Red ('Chicago')Released together with the 'Bred' on 15 September 1985, the 'Chicago' colorway was worn on court by his Airness for the majority of the 1985 season. There is not much more we need to say about this. Truly awesome.

Nike Air Jordan 1 White/Black/Red ('Black Toe')One of my personal favorites, both for rarity and aesthetics. One of the best lookers in my humble opinion on-feet, the Jordan 1 'Black Toe' has been Retro'ed several times over the years and there have been rumors that another 2020 or 2021 Hi '85 'Black Toe' is in the making.

Nike Air Jordan 1 Black/Royal Blue ('Royal')Despite never being worn in the NBA by Michael Jordan, the Black and Blue 'Royal' has the distinction of being Michael's personal favorite colorway. He chose to wear these for a photoshoot at an airport landing strip which became the iconic "Flight Guy" poster. The Jordan 1 'Royal' was retro'ed last in 2017 as part of the 'Flight Guy' Pack. Some famous OGs who have favored the shoe over the years include Slash, the Guns 'n Roses Guitarist and pro Skateboarder Lance Mountain.

Nike Air Jordan 1 Black/Grey ('Shadow')Another pair in the same black bases color blocking as the 'Royal' and 'Bred' is the Air Jordan 1 'Shadow'. Nicknamed for it's appearance of being the shadow of unlit version of the other colorways. The Shadow is a sneakerhead favorite that has been retro'ed a couple of times, latest in 2018. Understated, goes with everything. Can't blame people for loving these.

Nike Air Jordan 1 White / Natural GreyNow we are getting into more obscure territory. The 'Natural Grey', sometimes mistakenly called 'Neutral Grey' was one of the least popular 1985 Jordan 1 releases. Because of that, very few have been kept BNDS by collectors and were just worn down instead. Also, this is the ONLY ONE that has never been retro'ed and many people feel, like us that it's about time!

Nike Air Jordan 1 White / Blue ('Kentucky' / 'Storm Blue')Another one that's hard to find in original 1985 vintage, this is a very very nice colorway that was retro'ed a bit under the radar in 2016. Still fetching a cool ~S$900 on the resale market, the 'Storm Blue' is a shoe that not many people will recognize, but a true classic. Cop the Storm Blue on Ox Street:https://oxstreet.com/p/air-jordan-1-retro-high-og-storm-blue 8. Nike Air Jordan 1 White / Black ('Panda')Ok, this is a confusing one. In late 2019 a sort of retro of the White / Black came-out that was called the 'Twist', but given it's colors and ponyhair material it was nicknamed the 'Panda'. As far as we remember and have been able to check, there was no mention of the 'Panda' name before the 'Twist', eventhough the 'White / Black' OG was retro'ed in 2014. Going currently a cool 5x retail price, the Retro did not go unnoticed though and has done nothing but go up in price since it's release.

Nike Air Jordan 1 White / Carolina Blue ('UNC')The UNC is one of the most striking OG colorways in our opinion. But the fact that 'Carolina Blue' has been having a real moment in the last 2 years might have something to do with that. In a nice example of how a hype collaboration can increase the value of the GR version, the Jordan 1 'UNC' Retro from 2015 has traded pretty close to retail until late 2018 when it started a steady march upwards to its current 2.6x premium over retail. Is it a coincidence that the OFF-WHITE version came out in mid 2018? We think not!
