Air Jordan 1 Armed Forces Pack
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Apr 21, 2008 Michael Jordan was a hero to many who grew up in the 1980’s and 90’s, but heroism runs in the blood of the Jordan family. Mike’s older brother James Ronald “Ronnie” Jordan, Jr. enlisted in the US Army at the age of only seventeen years old. He served for 31 years including staying an extra year of duty on tour in Iraq after his scheduled retirement. While serving his country, Ronnie achieved the highest rank of any enlisted signal soldier as Command Sergeant Major of the 35th Signal Brigade.
Jordan Brand created the Armed Forced Package of Air Jordans to commemorate the service of Ronnie Jordan and all other Armed Forces service members. Two pairs of Air Jordan 1’s will make up this package including this pair that has a badged on the shoe similar to Ronnie’s rank badge. Other aesthetic highlights of the shoes include a scratched suede and fatigue-style olive canvas swoosh. Both pairs of the Armed Forces Package will release May 24th Stateside, but this pair has released already overseas at Size?. |

I gotta know when these are comin out !!! The cleanest 1’s I’ve seen since the red white & black ones they put out in that package.
Jun 12, 2008 at 9:37 am
4sho, these kicks are fresh. It’s about time someone reps for the troops. I had to get these, I feel they are the hardest j’s to drop. I think everyone should salute these, perfect fit for the 1’s.
