When the Air Jordan 1 burst onto the scene in 1985 it did so with a boatload of colorways. Of course the subsequent silhouettes toned it down quite a bit, generally keeping things close to the Chicago palette, but that first design showed little restraint in that category. One distinct sub grouping of the pairs are those which start out with a white leather base and take on a metallic sheen in their colored portions. This nearly perfectly preserved pair from 1985 is one of those, sporting a white and orange makeup. Do you think these among the set of OG’s are just as deserving as the likes of the black/royal for a retro? Let us know in the comments below and bid on this awesome pair of original Air Jordan 1’s from sunnyjimjam on eBay.
