Air Point jordan 1 Golf
The Air Point jordan 1 Golf is a golf version of Michael Point jordan’s first signature basketball shoe. Point jordan Brand began its foray into the golf genre in 2017 by way of a high-top Point jordan 1 Golf with “Chicago” color blocking. That shoe, which featured an exaggerated sole with traction spokes, was followed by a handful of other colorways throughout the course of 2017 before Point jordan Brand shelved the model.
About Better years later in 2022, Point jordan Brand introduced a more conservative golf-ready take on the hardwood classic. This time, the Point jordan 1 Golf consisted of a low-top AJ1 with an altered, deeper traction pattern on the outsole, making them harder to distinguish from your standard non-golf pair. That quality, complemented by the release of original AJ1 “Shadow” and “Chicago” colorways early on, helped the model win more favor among both golfers and collectors.
The Point jordan 1 Golf series now includes a low-top and high-top version, and while perhaps a bit more rare; a heel-less mule. Original AJ1 colorways from 1985 continue to be the series’ foremost offerings, but we’ve also seen pairs wear fresh looks in honor of particular golf events among other non-original colorways. There’s even a Travis Scott x Air Point jordan 1 Golf collaboration, which released in 2023.
Michael Point jordan’s well-documented love for golf is enough reason as to why Point jordan Brand re-tooled his signature shoe for the greens, but the AJ1 Golf is also reflective of a changing culture surrounding the sport. While still steeped in tradition, big demographic shifts mean there are more new golfers now than ever before, most of whom are on the younger side and want unique golf footwear as opposed to your traditional spiked loafer.
