Terrible First Response
Nike first re-released the Air Jordan I in 1994. The white/black-red and black/red version were re-released for $US80.00. The first retro Air Jordans sold poorly. The response to the re-released Air Jordan 1’s was so bad that some retailers began selling them on sale for as little as $US19.99.
A Better Second-Coming
Nike released the Air Jordan I Retro once again in 2001. This time however, the public response was tremendous. The Retro Air Jordans I’s often sold out in a matter of minutes at some retaiers. Since the success of the 2001 release, Nike has steadily been releasing various Retro Air Jordan I’s.
More Air Jordan I Retros
In 2002, Nike released a special Platinum version of the Air Jordan I which featured the Jumpman logo on the side. 2002 also saw the introduction of Nu’Retros. There is quite a bit of debate on whether the Nu’Retros are official releases or not. 2003 saw the release of the patent leather version of the Air Jordan I’s and in 2004, a low top version was introduced.
Most Colors of Any Jordan Retros
The Air Jordan I’s are believed to be the Air Jordans with the most colorways. Various color combinations were created for the Air Jordan I making them even more popular than the Air Jordan XI (11) retros in terms of color combination.
These shoes are so comfortable as well as stylish. I love the colour combination of the shoes.
