Michael Jordan is an icon. Not just on the basketball court, but in pop culture too — even after retiring from the NBA more than 20 years ago. In fact, even his sneakers are iconic.
And now in unisex sizes for adults and kids, Nike re-releases the classic Air Jordan 1 “Black Toe” sneakers with a classic colorway, while they drop on Saturday, Feb. 15 at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT at nike.com.
Made with premium and synthetic leather, the Nike Air Jordan 1 Retro sneakers have a foam midsole for lightweight cushioning and solid rubber outsoles for traction — all with Nike’s design silhouette that’s eye-catching and a fan-favorite.
These sneakers come in a white, varsity red, sail and black colorway (Chicago Bulls colors) that offers an instantly classic and stylish look. However, instead of the classic “Air Jordan” logo on their outer collars, there’s the modern and minimalist logo.
