Air Jordan 1 Low Phat Black/Varsity Red
Posted by George Kiel III | Sep 30, 2008 This past weekend, The Air Jordan 1 Low Phat Cement turned many heads with its limited release to select accounts. However, the early release of the Air Jordan 1 Low Phat Black/Varsity Red made the biggest surprise appearance in select retailers. These sneakers are very similar to the Air Jordan I Velcro Red (minus the velcro straps) which also dropped this past weekend.
Although the official release date is December 2008, you can get them early, in many sizes, at eBay now. More pics after the jump provided by Sneaker News. Very stylish OG colorway! Would you sport them? |

HOT AS FISH GREASE!
Oct 1, 2008 at 3:46 am
theres too much red
Oct 1, 2008 at 12:05 am
Come to think about it, I think $100+ for any Jordan 1s is too much. Especially in lowtops. For that much I much rather get something with a little more technology. But these are hot though.
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:32 pm
couldnt have said it better myself, CHUX…ON POINT…
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:09 pm
these feel nice on the feet. I kinda would rather have highs but I cant front. Pair em with a nice pair of jeans and the tongue automatically sticks out, FRESH!!! IDK they kind of dont feel like lows…
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:45 pm
They Str8
Sep 30, 2008 at 9:35 pm
they r cool
Sep 30, 2008 at 8:38 pm
dey hot but i prefer the hightops alot more….also jb needs to ease up on the bred colorways. are the black and blue ones coming out?
Sep 30, 2008 at 8:34 pm
i like these. i wuld like the high’s better but i would cop these
Sep 30, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Don’t even act like these aren’t hard.
Jordan saving all the OG colorways for new release stuff, to bring new consumers. Every new school jordan head is gonna buy 4 pairs, 2 for them, and 2 for their dog. This means JB gets new people hooked on their stuff by using the tried and true colorways.
Meanwhile, the experimental colorways go to the sneakers that people just want retro colorways of, thus annoying the original fans, but packaging them as 2 so consumers are forced to get 2 pairs. This also sates the old heads who just want “another one of those” shoes, and will collect a sneakers style regardless of how it looks because of their memories wearing/rocking/collecting those shoes.
JB is smart marketing man, smart marketing.

Sep 30, 2008 at 6:04 pm

Sep 30, 2008 at 11:40 am
I’m so torn…tempted to cop because of the colorway but feeling like it will be a waste of money since I really want the Highs…*debating w/ self*
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:30 am
nicccceee. if only they would just give us the hi’s in the exact same colorway. wont be coppin these… jordan 1 lows suck overall
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:15 am
mine!!!!!
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:13 am
wheen do the blue and black ones cum out??
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:12 am
oo, no complaints. had em about 7-8 years ago in hightps, why wouldn’t i get these? i mean, its as close as it gets to those. these are nice. its colorways like this that mike cant go wrong with. original colorways in different form. i like them. i hope they bring back the black n blue. maybe the silver ones, dontknow i those were called cool grey’s or not, cant remember. we’ve all been complaining about how they raped this shoe and left it out for dead, but any jordan shoe head should be satisfied with this. they did it with the 2’s, why not these?
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:05 am
Got my pair last Friday. VERY NICE!!!!
Sep 30, 2008 at 11:03 am
the phat line has extra padding I believe, specifically in the tongue, if that’s true, then sign me up, low-top 1’s look cool but aren’t all that comfy.
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:59 am
These are dope I will be copping these.
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:59 am
they fresh. good colorway. just don’t kno bout this whole “phat” thing. might have to try em on first..
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:58 am
horrible ….way to much “BLACK N RED” in jordans now-a-days. im not sold just because its a OG colorway….Stamp these “EWWWWWW”
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:58 am
For all the Jordan spin offs that the Jordan Brand has saturated the market with, I must say these are on point!!!
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:58 am
I think imma wait for the highs
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:53 am
I’m not even a fan of low tops, but those are super hard, especially in that OG colorway…fugedaboudit!!! A must have!
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:51 am
I like them but, they are kinda like the lil step brother to The Retro HI Bred 1’s That everyone laughs at when he’s not around lol!!!!
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:39 am
Honestly this one of the best jordan low tops ever.
Sep 30, 2008 at 10:38 am
YEA DEF COP, I WOULD ROCK THESE HEAVY!!!!!!!!!
