Tomorrow marks the release of one of the most important sneakers in the history of the genre – the Air Jordan 1 “Banned”.
Celebrated as the shoe of folk legend that then NBA commissioner David Stern banned Michael Jordan from wearing due to its bold and imposing aesthetic, the pivotal model orbits tomorrow in premium construction with the same subtle nuances that not only made the shoe an icon to consumers, but a point of creative inception for anyone designing sporting silhouettes after 1985.
And while the shoe will be widely released, don’t expect to score a pair easily. Make plans now if you haven’t already with your local sneaker boutique to make sure the Air Jordan 1 “Banned” is yours tomorrow, September 3. The shoe retails for $160 at select shops like Livestock.
