Air Jordan 1 “A Tribe Called Quest”
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jan 21, 2009
Earlier this week we shared with you a first look at the upcoming Air Jordan 1 inspired by A Tribe Called Quest’s Midnight Marauders album cover, but now we have some clearer shots. Overall the kicks look pretty impressive with the eye catching red and green on the black based Air Jordan 1. One detail the we appreciated was a black patent leather swoosh and green sidewall stitching.
Some pairs have made their way early to eBay for the retail price of $110. Info and pics from Daily Drop.

Yea it isnt about their music but I still think these are dope!!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 4:49 pm
pass too many 1s there not bad
Jan 21, 2009 at 4:24 pm
I don’t care about the music…I love these. I would su@k anyone of you guys off to get them!!! And I do get down like that…just make sure you don’t squirt too much into my mouth.
Jan 21, 2009 at 4:07 pm
Hey sneaker los, this isn’t about how good their music is. This is about the shoe. Just because there is a name on a shoe doesn’t make it nice. And these are no exception to that rule.
Jan 21, 2009 at 3:47 pm
CONSIDER DEZ COPPED WIT THA INFAREDS.ANYBODY KNW WHERE I CAN STILL GET THA LASER 1′S IN A 9.5 4 A DESCENT PRICE?
Jan 21, 2009 at 3:43 pm
I agree with LEJ45 about Ignorant People on here….These are very Dope!!! Do your research and Look up Tribe Called Quest….The Greatest Hip Hop Group after Wu-Tang!!!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 3:25 pm
i dig
Jan 21, 2009 at 3:13 pm
these are growin on me, def gonna cop the shirt though.
Jan 21, 2009 at 3:09 pm
wooh we have ignerant people who will buy the shoes just cause there sweet and it pisses me off cause they dont even know who [A Tribe Call Quest] is
Jan 21, 2009 at 2:56 pm
These are a joke….. JB can barley do anything right anymore.
Jan 21, 2009 at 2:53 pm
these look a lot like the “green bean” ajf 12’s.
Jan 21, 2009 at 2:09 pm
these pics, convince me a lil more. Look decent.
Jan 21, 2009 at 2:03 pm
these are fresh just not the strap..i’ll still cop though. Drop Date? You guys will probably have it soon. God Bless
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:52 pm
ugly especially with the strap
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:44 pm
Anyone know the official size run???
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:40 pm
When is the offical release date for these?
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:28 pm
ones aint never had no strap? why would i get these? i do love tribe though and the colors are sick.
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:16 pm
these r nice especially da colorway I just wish it was on another sneaker dats all like da 6 maybe even da 4’s would be cool but I can’t wait till da 7 package comes out in august dats goin to crazy like it would really be great if jb would come out wit a 6 package or even better a 11 package space jams and columbia blues I pity da fool dat didn’t have them lol
Jan 21, 2009 at 1:02 pm
MUST HAVE!!! Hey Matt when and where do these come out? I gotta grab these simply out of respect for my generation. Don’t really trust ebay anymore. Too many fakes floating online…
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:51 pm
I’m getting these regardless. One of the few J’s I plan to own. Already got the Starks laces in tact. Now just need these.
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:50 pm
yeah uptempo air has them for 129.99 but they sold out of the bigger sizes. Still undecided. But JB needs to get somebody to read these blogs. A year of complete Og’s without a pack would sick. It’s so many shoes out Including Columbia XI, and White/red XII, just to name a few
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:34 pm
These look like a copy of the og black spizkes. Same colors and same idea, just not as orignal.
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:30 pm
THESE ARE SUPER CLEAN!!! OH MY GOODNESS!!! I’VE GOT TO HAVE THESE!!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:21 pm
#3…Can I get an aye??? The fu@% is that?? Dumb a$$ kid. Don’t know sh!t.
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:17 pm
eff #12! If you don’t like Jordan’s get out of this message board. I’m not sold on these shoes.
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:17 pm
ok but i just copp my gucci high retro 1 for 119.00 wit shipping dats not deal dats a steal lolzz
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:15 pm
AYE!!! #3 and #6
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:12 pm

Jan 21, 2009 at 12:10 pm
anybody say these r ugly mus b blind..these pics make em look a lot betta!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:04 pm
these are hot, i think i might finally cop some jays again…
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:03 pm
the play off black and whites would be nasty
Jan 21, 2009 at 12:02 pm

Jan 21, 2009 at 12:00 pm
@ #3 THEY SHOULD DO THE SPACEJAM 11′S AND THE BLACK AND WHITE 12′S!! KILLERS!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 11:59 am
shoes are FUGLY!! sorry JB!!
Jan 21, 2009 at 11:52 am
Love the music and the inspiration from the album art!
Jan 21, 2009 at 11:51 am
damn well now looking at it from this angle maakes the shoe look better i would consider buying them and gettin the shirt and a black coogi with the same colors to go with the kicks but i still think they should stop with the ones they should make another 11/12 package but with the space jams and the white and red 12’s if any one agrees with that package can i get an aye
Jan 21, 2009 at 11:49 am
me 1st?? shoe look alot betta in these piks..still not sure?
Jan 21, 2009 at 11:49 am
I’m still not convinced on these but I did cop one of the shirts.
