Air Jordan 22/1 Countdown Pack
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Sep 4, 2008 This month’s Countdown Package brings back an original colorway of the Air Jordan 1 and a new color of last year’s Air Jordan XX2.
Though not set to release until September 20th, Pick Your Shoes has posted the pack for $350. There is not much excitement for this Countdown Pack and in fact we noticed on eBay that many sellers are willing to take just $250 for the set. Info from Daily Drop. |

wack!
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:26 pm
the 1’s are straight but the 22’s have to go!
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:32 pm
The Air Jordan 1s are my favorite of all time, but I agree, the color choice for the XX2 is awful to be nice.
I just have such a hard time even paying $250 for this pack when I really do not like the XX2 and most AJ 1s are going for $100 these days…
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:32 pm
the 22’s have some red on the bottom
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:33 pm
the 22’s were always wack in my opinion, felt embarrased buyin the 5/8’s but i had to getta pair to complete my consecutive collection…is it just me though or are the 1’s actually hi-tops? THAT IS FRESH! if only more retro I’s were high cut…so hot!
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:34 pm
kobe fan, thanks for the heads up.
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:42 pm
GARBAGE!!!!!!
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:48 pm
wow… feelin the 1’s..but the 22’s are a big no-no
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:54 pm
PROBABLY JST COP’n DA 1ns!!
WEN jordan has an opotunity to jump rite back into the shoe game after all the gabage(fusions, .5 , ect.) they dont take advantage, they could of easly retro the og red white blk 1ns or the royal blues… jb is slak’n!!!!!!!!!!
Sep 4, 2008 at 11:59 pm
sucks jordans not gonna be retroeing anymore…just naming the jordans diffrent names..
it really sucks to be the new kids growing up, having no clue who micheal jordan was and not knowing the original 23..
theyre just gonna know the jordan 2009,2010’s ans so on…
i just am not feeling this pack, its gonna mess up my collecting of all the CDP’s.
but, its a fault i just have to take, i have only tried on a pair of XXII’s once…
they’re comfortable to say the most, but ugly to say the least.
no go on these for me…
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:02 am
Not many ppl like the AJ 22, but i reckon they are fantastic to ball in!!! Second to AJ 20!!!
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:18 am
i just like da 1s…. dey kew
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:36 am
Ummmm… you know whats funny? Out of all the countdown packs that people had pictures of almost months before they release, someone tell me why the biggest shots of thi pack you can find are thumbnails compared to the other packs?
LMAO
If you are collecting the packs, then you have to get this one, but if your only collecting a few inbetween, then this clearly is a pass. How many AJ1’s can you have already? As for the 22’s… I’ll admit this is the best colorway that has come out for the AJ22 but its not worth 310
AJ1 = 100
AJ22 = 174.99
22 + 1 = 274.99 not 310
Yeah, I know, 310 is the countdown price and such and some of the packs actually most more thant 310 so it all breaks even I suppose, but this pack in particular seems like a total waste. I suspect that they will be the second worst pack behind the 2 + 21 (and I liked the 21’s too but I hated the 2’s almost as much as the 15’s).
Its a nice pack, don’t get me wrong, but its lame because how many 1’s you gonna have and do you really want to pay 310 for the 22’s and the 1’s?
And I’m till trying to remember if the original AIR Jordan 1’s were 100 dollars. I remember 89.99 back in the day but I could be wrong. Wasn’t really into Jordan’s 23 years ago lol
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:37 am
THE RETRO 1′S ARE HOT… THE RETRO 22′S ARE NOT…!
I GOT THE BLACK AND RED 22′S FROM LAST YEAR, I DON’T NEED ANOTHER PAIR… BUT THE RETRO 1′S, I’D GET THOSE IN A HEARTBEAT.
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:43 am
DAMN, $250 ON EBAY FOR THIS PACK…? SOUNDS LIKE A BARGAIN, BUT I’M STILL PASSING ON THESE. HEY MATT, ARE YOU GONNA GET THIS PACK YOURSELF…?
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:22 am
can someone please tell me where i can buy the 1’s by themselves. thanks.
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:24 am
Hopefully my spot will let me just cop the Is.
They threw me the Vs for $150; a price I could EASILY live with.
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:57 am
You’ll see this pack online for hella days
Sep 5, 2008 at 2:48 am
If jb could think like normal human beings but a simple red on the 1s with a black swoosh and the 22s black infrared(or any new colorway) this pack would sell alot
Sep 5, 2008 at 3:00 am
those are ok i want the O.g wish has the black/red 1 and 22 is black/red/white.
Sep 5, 2008 at 6:26 am
man… lookin at these prices makes me depressed…
i’ll just go get some dunks
Sep 5, 2008 at 7:01 am
oldjumpman,
I really love the Air Jordan 1 from this pack, but I in no way can justify spending anywhere close to $310 for it. I am going to take the risk, be patient, and hope to find these on sale or at the outlets.
Sep 5, 2008 at 7:13 am
NO WAY JB IS GETTING MY MONEY ON THIS PACK.I LIKE THE ONES LIKE MATT SAID THIS PACK WILL PROB END UP IN THE OUTLETS LIKE 2/21 PACK!!!!!!!!!!!
Sep 5, 2008 at 7:18 am
Folks gon buy ‘em and not where the 22’s til the 1’s get dirty…. is it me or are Jordan’s starting to look more like the knockoffs at the west end????????

its people like you who JB sucks in on most of these worthless packs. Only pack worth getting was the Carmine pack. All the rest are split-ups that you can find cheaper on the bay then buying the whole pack.
If it’s that important to collect every CDP and numbered Jordan, your a clown if you dont buy this one. Especially since you were foolish enough to buy the rest
Sep 5, 2008 at 8:11 am
not a fan honestly but hey, their JORDANS right!!?? giving them a 6 (just because of the logo).
Sep 5, 2008 at 8:38 am
kooool
Sep 5, 2008 at 10:16 am
wigiti wack NO not these this pack is the wrost yet…
Sep 5, 2008 at 10:54 am
RULER of NY,
You don’t think the 16/7 pack was worth it?! I do agree about the Carmines but don’t forget about the Hares and 16’s
Sep 5, 2008 at 11:36 am
im feeling both these shoes…idk about the rest of yall but this is my favorite pack…this might be the first one i buy..who knows
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:02 pm
Got the black/blue 1’s and The Birthday basketball 22’s both deadstock… These 1’s are coo but I will catch them on ebay. Whackest 22’s I have ever seen tho!
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:14 pm
the 22’s are to literally ball in…you aren’t supposed to wear 22’s so basically what im saying is….buy the 1’s to rock a few times and keep them on ice in the box and strictly hit the courts in the 22’s…………..the pack isn’t even that bad and the 22’s have good a** grip
Sep 5, 2008 at 12:34 pm
first of all the only three packs that are worth getting that had two sweet shoes in them were the 6/17 7/16 and the 11/12 all that other packs are lop sided ass hell second i dont care what anyone says this pack is the weakest out of all of them and is by far weaker then the 21 2 pack the 22’s are ok and in my opinion this is the one of the best color ways i have seen them in 2nd i like the color way of the ones but i dont like that they are so high i know that is how ones were originally are but i think they are to high this back is plain and boring
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:40 pm
second worst pack period.
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:43 pm
I love these 1’s but I cant drop $310 on these not even $250. I just cant force myself to get these. I might have to go to active athlete and see how much he wants for the 1’s
Sep 5, 2008 at 1:51 pm
man the ones are so hot. but not for 310.
Sep 5, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Death to Jordan Brand for all the Wack, Poor Quality, Over Priced shoes/CDP’s they have released this year. Supra is what’s up!!! Long live Supra Skytop!!!!!!!! NKOTB
NEW KICKZ ON THE BLOCK.
Sep 5, 2008 at 2:46 pm
The 1’s are ballin 22’s are soft
Sep 5, 2008 at 3:17 pm

Sep 5, 2008 at 3:50 pm

man it kills me when people always say a jordan comes out in to many colors the air force one has been out for ages and they have made over a million color ways of them but i never here anyone say the make to many colors of air force ones if a color way is sweet on a shoe then let it be that stop complaining about them making to many of a jordan in a color way
Sep 5, 2008 at 6:54 pm
i got 5 pairs of the ones im really not thinkin of wastin money on another pair..
Sep 5, 2008 at 6:55 pm
Iceberg,
What about the 3/20? 20s r below average, but the black/cement 3s? id pay 310 for the 3s themselves. as for these, i only like the 1s, hate the 22s. the 22s look fake to me. anyways, one of the easiest passes of the year next to the 8/15 and 2/21 (even though the 2s r pretty nice). maybe ill get these at the outlets or on sale, and just sell those ugly 22s on ebay
Sep 5, 2008 at 7:00 pm
naah i think ima pass. Im not a fan of tha 22’s and for tha 1’s i ratha cop the olmpics than these.
Sep 5, 2008 at 7:57 pm
this countdown pkg. is terrible i mean seriously why would you have the aj 1’s in a blk and white color way? and the the 22’s are just disgusting…. I never liked the 22’s I will certainly pass on these.
Sep 5, 2008 at 8:35 pm
Wow i really like da 22′z there so damn pretty i just brought dem 4 140 from my sneaker store in brooklyn and dey had da 1′z by dem selfz also so nebodi wanna knoe hit me up mattykos21@yahoo.com or AIM unevensmoke but yea da nubuck onda 22′z iz really wat got me dey look so pretty in big sz’z from 10-up
Sep 5, 2008 at 9:42 pm
this r horrible disgusting waiting 4 11/12 pack
Sep 5, 2008 at 10:00 pm
I might cop i dunno
Sep 5, 2008 at 10:23 pm
these areWACKKKLKKK
Sep 6, 2008 at 12:08 am
I WISH THE 1′S HAD BEEN THE RED, WHITE AND BLACK, BUT THEY LOOK SO PLAIN, AND THE 22′S TOO. WHAT WAS JB THINKING? YOU THINK JB LAUGHS ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK WHENEVER THEY SEE A PACK SUCH AS THIS ONE, SOLD TO FOOLS LIKE US… THE $310 PRICE TAG IS A JOKE… THE PACK SHOULDN’T BEEN MORE BLACK, RED OR WHITE, THE BULLS COLORS… JB, YOU’RE REALLY LOSING ME HERE…!
Sep 6, 2008 at 1:02 am
Like i been saying on much of the JB releases PASS!
Sep 6, 2008 at 1:58 am
im sorry, but thers no way im paying 310 for this. the 1’s go for 100, even though they used to be like 80$ and the 22’s were 175 i think for some colors, and 150 for others. so you guys are right about this pack actually being worth that much. im sorry but this is crazy. i got 2 pairs of 1’s for 200 last year. how do they justify these? wheres the extra money coming from? im dissapointed with thispack. while i want the 1’s, i had huge expectations for the 22’s. they are my favorite PERFORMANCE jordans i ever had. but they are too plain and not worth the extra money. im not spending another penny on J’s till to 3’s come out, then the 11/12’s because im falling on hard times and i cant waste money
Sep 6, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Call me crazy but I only like the XX2s. I’ll be looking for y’all on Ebay.
Sep 6, 2008 at 9:08 pm
I like both of them
i would wear the 1s
and ball in the 22s
theyre both fresh to me
Sep 6, 2008 at 10:44 pm
everyone is saying “i’ll be waiting for the 11/12 cdp” and haven’t even seen what colors are going to be on them…….watch the XI’s have a black/black colorway and the XII’s will be all white and plain like these or something bizaree and ya’ll are going to say that’s whack too….
Sep 7, 2008 at 1:15 am
RZ 21
yea you are right the 3’s are by far one of the hardest j’s ever but that pacl coming with the 20’s makes that pack one of the most lop sided packs by far i didnt say that all the packs are wack but most of themonly have one good shoe the only ones that have 2 good shoes in my opinion is 6/17 7/16 and 11/12

very clean imo
Sep 7, 2008 at 8:40 pm
THIS PACK STILL IS VERY MUCH BOTHERING ME… IF THE RETRO 1′S WERE THE “BANNED” 1′S OR THE WHITE, RED & BLACK 1′S, THE $310.00 PRICE TAG WOULDN’T SEEM LIKE SUCH A RIP-OFF. DARN YOU, JB… GET YOU HEAD OUTTA YOUR A$$… VERY UPSET AND DISSAPOINTING IN YOU.
Sep 7, 2008 at 10:10 pm
Am I colorblind, or is this the actual colorway for these!?!?!??!
