When the sneakers were still in development before their original release in 1984, the Air Jordan 1 went through a few different tweaks and sample stages before becoming the icon it is today. One of the more famous prototype designs featured a wingless “Air Jordan” logo on the ankle. After over 30 years in the dark, the wingless Air Jordan 1 made its first retail debut last year, and now three new colorways of the wingless design are set to release, including one quite similar to the OG “Chicago” colorway, as well as a fragment-like royal blue rendition. In addition to the unique logo at the ankle, the sneakers also include a “Nike Air” logo on the heel, which as far as we know, was never featured on an early sample of the shoe but makes for an interesting addition now.
Expect the new round of Air Jordan 1 “Wingless” colorways to arrive in early 2017.
