The Air Jordan 1 AJKO is finally arriving twenty-five years after its original release. While some retailers both brick-and-mortar and online have made these available early, the AJKO will officially drop tomorrow and should be available with easy access at Jordan retailers. Some have lamented the pre-yellowed vintage treamtment given to the AJKO but a little elbow grease in the form of a rubdown with some warm water and soap should get that yellowing right off. With the release of the three 25th Anniversary Air Jordan Retros, the last weekend of March is definitely leaving on a high note. If you’re unable to grab a pair in-store, pick up a pair on eBay.

I already got mine. Not sure if I will remove the yellowing. If I do it will just be some, not all. Mine came way more yellowed that the ones pictured above.

I dont know if anyone noticed on nike.com, but these were available this past monday. I saw them and was like… thats weird. If I actually liked them, I would have bought them then. I checked again on tuesday and they already disapeard by then.

Got mines delivered today….these J’s are really fresh on the feet. I washed off the yellowing simply by just mixing regular laundry detergent with hot water and a toothbrush. Comes off really easy if you choose to want it that way.

you shouldn’t have to work to get yellowing off a brand new shoe!
March 26th, 2010 at 10:23 pm
well you’re going to have to clean your brand new shoes at least once anyways…but to each they own, we all have our opinions. Cleaning both soles in less than 5 minutes is not work for me
