Jordan 1 Retro High Bred Banned 2016 – 555088-001
WHY IS IT CHEAP? Read me?
The shoe that started it all. In 1985, Nike partnered with a young superstar in the making, Michael Jordan, and changed the game by releasing the Air Jordan, now known as the Air Jordan 1. It was rumored that this black and red colorway was banned by the NBA for violating the league’s dress code, leading to the shoe’s reputation as the banned Jordans. While this story was most likely a marketing move on Nike’s part as it has never been confirmed, the legend of the Air Jordan 1 Bred lives on.
The Air Jordan 1 Bred 2016 featured a black and Varsity Red leather upper with Swoosh overlays and Wings logo detailing at the collar. Vintage-styled Nike Swoosh woven tongue tags add a classic feel. From there, a white and red Air sole completes the design.
The Air Jordan 1 Bred 2016 released in September of 2016 and retailed for $160.
If you’re a sneaker person you’ll appreciate the build quality on these. Clean lines, solid construction, comfortable insole. Definitely picking up another pair soon.
Rare to find a shoe that’s both this comfortable and this stylish. These check both boxes easily. Will definitely be ordering again.
Came in fast and looks just like the photos. Really happy with it — quality feels solid overall. Laces could be a bit thicker but nothing major. Would buy again.
From the packaging to the product itself, everything was excellent. Fit is true to size, comfort is 10/10, and the style is hard to beat. Highly recommend.
Received everything just as shown — shoes, dust bag, all there. No complaints on the packaging. Fits true to size and the all-black colorway looks sharp in person. Worth it.
