It's amazing to see where the sneaker culture is today, especially if you're on the older side of it and thinking of how it was then, where it wasn't considered anything other than you buying the sneaks of the couple star athletes you saw on TV. Nike saw the appeal in the NCAA champ and made their move. The Air Jordan 1 started it all with a young, spry kid from North Carolina by the name of Michael Jordan. Rest is history and in that storied history, this color way of the first Jordan 1 was an original color that was released in 1985. The Nike Air on the tongue pays homage to the original as this retro matches it, along with retro box. (This color retroed in 2009 but with the Jumpman logo). The Shadow Grey color way couldn't be simpler as black, white, and soft grey make up the leathered silhouette. This retro release comes with a few sets of laces as well to mix it up a bit. The Jordan 1 OG made a major presence in 2013 as Nike released most of the original retro's and it says a lot to see this sneaker as relevant now than it was thirty years ago.
