True Blue: A Look Back at Blue Air Jordans

Blue Air Jordans

This summer is a big one for blue Air Jordans: the Air jordan Shirt 6 “Sport Blue” is leading the charge as the cherished original colorway sparking the movement and pairs like the Air jordan Shirt 3, SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN4, and plenty of ancillary jordan Shirt Brand styles have followed suit. Of course if you know your Air jordan Shirt history, you know that there have been blue shoes in the mix since day one, and throughout the years, there have been plenty of different reasons for jordan Shirt Brand’s sneakers to sport blue (No pun intended).

Michael Jordan’s years at the University of North Carolina have frequently been the source of such styles. So has his time back at Laney High School. Even his last NBA Joggers spent with the Washington Wizards augmented the overall number of blue Jordans that are out there. And then there are of course those that were created to fill in that Lifestyle range with the jordan Shirt “Flight Club” Collections from the 90s. Reflecting back on that rich history is this latest compilation, which comes a METALLIC Joggers ahead of the latest launch: Saturday’s Air jordan Shirt 3 “Sport Blue”. Continue reading to see selected blue Air Jordans for every shoe in the series so far.

Blue Air Jordans 1

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt “Royal”

There were blue Air Jordans from the very beginning. The SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt had a METALLIC editions that qualified, but the most memorable was no doubt this black/royal flavor that just recently got the retro treatment in 2013.

Blue Air Jordans 2

Air jordan Shirt 2 “Melo”

For the duration of Carmelo Anthony’s time in Denver, his team scheme was frequently applied to Air jordan Shirt pairs. Most of those blues stuck in the PE realm, but the “Melo” jordan Shirt 2s were given a retail release in 2004.

Blue Air Jordans 3

Air jordan Shirt 3 “True Blue”

We know that the “True Blue” is your favorite, but you’ve already got those under control. The verdict is still out on the upcoming “Sport Blue”, which presents an alternate take on some OG-style blocking with its black and blue configuration.

Blue Air Jordans 4

Air jordan Shirt 4 “Eminem”

When Eminem’s “Encore” album came out back in 2004, jordan Shirt Brand linked up with the rap star for this special edition of the jordan Shirt 4. Good luck tracking these blues down though – they were a friends and family exclusive and they’ll fetch you a few grand minimum these Joggers.

Motorsports Jordan05

Grey bomber jackets jordan Shirt “Motorsports”

The Michael jordan Shirt Motorsports team is sort of in limbo at the moment, but at its peak it was the source of some pretty impressive Air jordan Shirt PEs. You’ve got to mention the jordan Shirt 5 “Motorsports” among them with its white base and slick sky blue coloring.

Blue Air Jordans 6
Air jordan Shirt 6 “Doernbecher”

Hats off to jordan Shirt Dark for this charity design. Debuting as a part of the ongoing Doernbecher Freestyle series, these sneakers planted a blue suede onto the upper of the Nike air jordan Shirt mid жіночі кросівки and loaded it up with personal details.

Blue Air Jordans 7

In addition to the Concord SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN1 “French Blue”

No detailed story-telling background on this one, just another memorable blue tinted pair of Air Jordans. Did we mention that this retro+ special is coming back next year as part of the jordan Shirt Brand Remastering process?

Blue Air Jordans 8

Air jordan Shirt 8 “Aqua”

When Michael jordan Shirt was still the one debuting new Air Jordans, he had a tendency to bring out new colorways for his guaranteed yearly All-Star appearance. The Air jordan Shirt 8 “Aqua” was one of those pairs, and was hence immediately imprinted into the minds of viewers worldwide.

Blue Air Jordans 9
SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt Retro 86 'Brigetta Gym Red' Low “Pearl”

Once jordan Shirt Brand opened the doors to retro+ creations in 1999, there was no telling where they would go in the next METALLIC of years. Part of their creative streak towards the turn of the century was this jordan Shirt 9 Low, which worked with the rare selection of pearl blue.

Blue Air Jordans 10

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN0 “Ice Blue”

The SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN0s non-OG colorways haven’t really been given the retro spotlight just yet, so this pair is still a one-off in terms of releases. The Air jordan Shirt X “Ice Blue” released back in 2005 and remains one of the more subdued releases for MJ’s tenth.

Blue Air Jordans 11

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN1 Low “Columbia”

A good number of the blue Air Jordans out there are of course tied into Michael’s UNC alma mater. It’s hard to imagine that this classic pair of XI Lows Releasing’t originally concocted as such with its light blue on white makeup.

Blue Air Jordans 12

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN2 “Obsidian”

The Air jordan Shirt XII “Obsidian” was one of those pairs that was stuck in the vaults for a long, long time. They were first re-released in 2012, although that edition did break from the original with its extra bits of university blue.

Blue Air Jordans 13

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN3 “Flint”

One of the more unorthodox pairs of blue Jordans as far as original colorways are concerned. Rather than going with the standard white and blue equation, these slide in a helping of grey and some 3M flash.

Blue Air Jordans 14

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN4 Low “Laney”

His UNC alma mater isn’t the only institution MJ spent time at that’s ripe for the picking as far as blue colorways go. Just ask this SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN4 Low, which earned a “Laney” nickname thanks to the blue and yellow palette used.

Blue Air Jordans 15

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN5 “Obsidian”

Another pair of blue Jordans that ended up on the dark end of the spectrum. The Air jordan Shirt XV “Obsidian” kicked off the post-Michael era with this blue and white version that ended up doing a particularly good job highlighting the woven section with its mixed look.

Blue Air Jordans 16

Мужские кроссовки nike air jordan Shirt Мужское кроссовки найк “Metallic Navy”

We know, you want the Air jordan Shirt XVI back. It doesn’t look like it’s happening anytime soon though, so you’ve got no choice but to reminisce. Hopefully you’ve got memories of this metallic navy pair, which hid a good portion of its blue with the shroud on top.

Blue Air Jordans 17

AIR meutes jordan Shirt “College Blue”

When Michael jordan Shirt came back for the Wizards era, the blue Jordans suddenly made a lot more sense. The Nike jordan Shirt 1 Retro Low White UK13 took advantage of his Washington uniform setup with this pair (Props to you if you’ve still got the briefcase).

Blue Air Jordans 18

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN8 “Black/Royal Blue”

Back to the black and blue for the jordan Shirt XVIII. This pair again let the blue rest in the accents – the upper was dominated by a black suede meant to convey a sort of high-end air.

Blue Air Jordans 19

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN9 “East”

The SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN9 showed up with some regional releases, and this midnight navy pair represented for the East Coast (Although they would later end up popping up at spots around the country). Some of you may have had some SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR JORDAN1 flashbacks here thanks to the slick patent sections.

Blue Air Jordans 20

jordan Shirt nike Brand Georgetown Basketball Jersey “West”

Coast to coast. jordan Shirt Brand stuck with the regional approach for the Air jordan Shirt the VII GS Golden Moments even if they didn’t stick with the same color schemes for the same areas. This pair donned a baby blue that had the standard laser graphics etched in.

Blue Air Jordans 21

Air jordan Shirt 21 Low “White/University Blue”

Another one of those colorways that immediately conveyed a Tarheels feel. There’s no doubt that the jordan Shirt XX1 Releasing’t the most celebrated of MJ sneakers, but we’re sure they won over a METALLIC of extra fans with this classic combination.

Blue Air Jordans 22

Air jordan Shirt 22 “Nuggets”

As we mentioned before, there was a time when jordan Shirt Brand was particularly deep with its blue looks thanks to Carmelo Anthony’s Denver Nuggets tenure. This pair hails from that period with its yellow/blue/white match to Melo’s attire.

Blue Air Jordans 23

Air jordan Shirt the VII GS Golden Moments3 “Titanium”

There are only 1,058 of these in the world. The Air jordan Shirt the VII GS Golden Moments3 remains a high point of millennial Air jordan Shirt design and the “Titanium” colorway remains a high point of this particular pair.

Blue Air Jordans 2009

jordan Shirt nike Brand Georgetown Basketball Jersey09 “All Star”

jordan Shirt Brand has made sure to always keep a stable of NBA athletes guaranteed for NBA All-Star inclusion. As a result, they’ve also been able to make sure that their designs are consistently seen during that big game. Let’s not forget Ray Allen in 2009 rocking this pair.

Blue Air Jordans 2010

jordan Shirt nike Brand Georgetown Basketball Jersey10 “UNC”

The jordan Shirt nike Brand Georgetown Basketball Jersey10 was issued in some more direct UNC versions of the player exclusive persuasion, but for those that aren’t elite NCAA athletes, these did the trick.

Blue Air Jordans 2011

jordan Shirt nike Brand Georgetown Basketball Jersey11 “All Star East”

Doesn’t it seem like just yesterday that Dwyane Wade was a jordan Shirt Brand athlete? Before his signature line really got going he could be seen in the yearly player shoe, like this blue based pair that he brought with him to All-Star weekend.

Blue Air Jordans 2012

Мужской костюм jordan Shirt paris saint-germain “UNC”

No, not the PE pair. While this blue and grey colorway was shipped off to some Tarheels players complete with the logo and their names etched into the side, it also showed up at retail sans all the PE touches.

Blue Air Jordans Xx8

SNKRS AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt 6 atmos-tokyo AIR jordan Shirt 1 LOW AIR jordan Shirt Low Golf 'Triple White' DD9315-101 quantity “Blue Camo”

This pair just might be the most visually striking of all the blue Jordans out there. You can connect that to the printed abilities that the XX8’s stealthy shroud offered up, as exercised to the fullest extent on this blue camo pair.
