The Air Jordan 1 is the sneaker that started it all. Designed by Peter Moore, the Jordan 1 first released back at the end of March of 1985 with an original price of only $64.99.

The Jordan 1 isn’t exactly a performance model nowadays, but, they feature some of the best on-court traction ever.

The Jordan 1 has released in a myriad of different colorways and there are High, Mid, and Low versions of the shoe. The Jordan 1 was one of the first models to be retro-ed back in 1994 and was the first model to get the pro-tro treatment from Nike. 

AVERAGE RETAIL PRICE: $170
