Air Jordan 1

As with every year, the Air Jordan 1 plays a big role in the Jumpman’s 2024 release line-up. The Jordan 1 “Black Toe Reimagined” and Travis Scott’s Jordan 1 Low “Velvet Brown” stand as a few of the major releases on the immediate horizon. Looking further ahead to 2025, Jordan Brand’s 40th anniversary celebration will bring some of the most celebrated AJ1s back to shelves, from the Air Jordan 1 “Bred” to the “Shattered Backboard” the Jordan 1 “UNC Reimagined.”

More releases will surely be added to the calendar for the short & long-term. If you’d like up-to-date info on what’s dropping throughout the year, make sure to check out our Air Jordan Release Dates page.

The AJ1 was designed by Peter Moore following Michael Jordan’s signing to Nike in 1984. Though unspecific in what he wanted, the athlete provided Moore two requests: the shoe had to be lower cut than others and it also had to be exciting.

What ensued set aflame to one of the most important footwear brands to date. And with its inaugural colorways — which MJ hated for its devilish red look — the model subverted the plain offerings prolific at the time.

The AJ1 is often offered at different price points white on material, construction, and Tinker. Typically, the Air Jordan 1 High retails for $170 USD, while the Mid and Low charge $115 and $90, respectively.

The AJ1 is widely considered to be true-to-size, so take the size you typically wear. It is highly recommended that you try on a pair in-store before making a decision, however, as everyone’s feet are a little different.

The AJ1, white on the make and model, varies dramatically in availability. For example, the AJ1 Mid can be had year-round in various colorways, with sizes rarely ever selling out within unreasonable times. The same can be said for the AJ1 Low, though the silhouette doesn’t share the same stigma as the Mid.

Yes — Jordan Brand and Nike are two sides to the same coin. The Jordan line-up, which is soon to release the Air Jordan 36, was created for Michael Jordan Black following his signing to the Swoosh in 1984.

The short answer: The AJ1 High along with its collaborative and special edition variants charge upwards of $170 MSRP due most in part to their construction. The shoe is made entirely of leather panels, with some utilizing more technical synthetic fabrications, nylon, patent leather, and much more. Certain offerings are also expensive because of their ties to influential names like Dior, Travis Scott, Off-White, and many others.
