Air Jordan 1 + VIII “Playoffs”
December 14th, 2012 by Brendan Dunne | 34 comments

The Air Jordan 1 is getting a retro treatment next year. The Air Jordan VIII is also getting a retro treatment next year. Oh and on top of that-the Air Jordan VIII is getting a retro treatment directly through the Air Jordan 1. Pictured here is a silo of the latter done up with materials, textures, and the ‘Playoffs’ colorway from the former. Continue reading to get a look at this bizarre sample and let us know in the comments how you feel about this Air Jordan 1/Air Jordan VIII crossover. As always, check back with Sneaker News for word on whether or not they’ll hit retail.

These go hard as a motherfuck. I got the white Bugs version and when the playoffs drop im getting that style too. Yall hating ass ol school sneak heads can keep camping for kicks that everyone has, meanwhile im strolling in and out of the store with some sleepers. Riddle me this haters would you not cop these over almost EVERY AJ1? Thought so. These are just the kick in the ass the AJ1's needed. The day the Bugs 8's drop imma be rockin these and laughin at all these cats with the same shoe as the dude next door...
These are NICE. I don't understand all the hate for non-OG sneakers.
im so against fusions type stuff , but damn these are pretty sweat
These are sickkkkk everybody's crying cause everyone rockin the same retroes here's your chance to have something different
FUSIONS
i actually like these.. the execution is well done.. way better than those horrid AF1 fusions.. i cant even believe i had a few pairs.. yes i'm ashamed lol
These are probably comfy as fuck. If they come out, I'll have some new skate shoes.
i dont hate em, but i dont love em either.
JB is being runned by 5 year olds
What do you expect jb to do. There are so many things that can be done. Just retro everything huh. When it comes to Jays so many ppl live in a box. @ac2slater
@Jetlifitsuks2bu !!
Not really feeling these. They look too long to me.
OMG Wackness! So we on this fusing BS again JB??
these ok but they shouldnt combine they should swap colors imagine green been 12s playoff 5s olympic 3s grape 6s cool grey 13s...foh
I don't hate these! I'm not sold on the placement of the 23 logo but..... Where else would you put it if your going for the look of the 8s.
Yes.
no
Not bad but nothing special. I like the idea of this though.
At first i was like bruh please do not bring back the jordan fusions lol
the air jordan retro puriest need to start embracing the new designs. they cant keep retroing pervious air jordans over and over, you have the advance the brand. these are NOT that bad. it's the best of both worlds. you might not like these but some lil kid might, but none the less we need to start embracing the new models they are dropping. what makes these so awful? i see nothing wrong with these hybrids. they doing it for the PENNY line and people are embracing those, i remember when they showed the ROOKIE LWP the foam heads was hating them but now their one of the best hybrids on the market. look at the son of mars, people hated those HYBRIDS but i see people rocking them.
I'm starting to think JB have interns go to flea markets and swap meets to check out bootleggers shoes then coming back to the office with their ideas.
@justwin I know right? hahahaha...... XD Or Jordan Brand is simply just runnin' out of ideas lol.
I actually like these. 2 of my fave J's in one. I wouldn't pay over $125-130 for these but these are nice imo
December Fool's!!
Ok these just showed me that a pair of Black and Red Nubuck AJ1's would go pretty hard.
not bad, the 1s body with touches of the 8s, interesting, need to see more of the shoe. none the less not bad
disgusting
i wouldnt buy these but these really arent that bad
JB and these damn Fusions...
W T F
this some ol bullshit.
They makin jordan 1 fusions now? Smh watch them make a aj1 x 5 next
They already did that and called it a prime 5. This is just as terrible as those are.
