Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Defiant” Takes Banned To Another Level

It seems there are an endless amount of black/red combinations on the Air Jordan 1. The original model donned by the GOAT returns on February 23rd in a new color-blocking style that reiterates the “Banned” narrative around the AJ1. You’ve heard the story of the NBA front office banning Michael’s shoes for its color-blocking. This Air Jordan 1 seems to comply with the all-black rule, but defiantly adds a bold red paint above the Swoosh as a sign of protest against the rule. Expected to drop the weekend after the 2019 All-Star Weekend, this Air Jordan 1 will be priced at $175. Stay tuned for updates.

Updated February 11th, 2019: The Air Jordan 1 “Couture” is apparently inspired by craftsmanship of luxury Italian sports cars. Full photos here.
