The Air Jordan 1 in the original High seems to be getting all the love, but credit the Mid (previously dubbed the Phat, but has since shed that quirky name) for keeping the AJ1 an ongoing topic with Jordan Brand for years and years. This clean and simple “Cool Grey” colorway is perfect for those who want that casual look with that timeless Air Jordan appeal, with white laces, midsoles, and Wings logo completing one of the freshest AJ1s yet. If you’re looking to replenish your rotation, pick them up right now at spots like Rock City Kicks.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in black/royal was definitely one of the more celebrated retros of 2013 so far. Shown here is an alternate black and royal look that strays pretty far from that OG look. On top of those key colors, there’s also a little bit of yellow and orange that throws things off quite a bit. Hit the jump with us for all the angles on this Air Jordan 1, and if you feel like adding it to your collection then keep in mind it’s a possibility thanks to jordunk23 on eBay.

Are you ready for a patriotic Air Jordan 1 release for July? It appears that this sneaker might be playing that role between the mixture of fire red, true blue, and white across the upper and the month of their arrival. If that’s the case though, is the inclusion of elephant print just an effort to get an extra-tie in in the mix? Or is it perhaps some sort of GOP sneaker? The latter isn’t likely, but either way stay tuned to Sneaker News for more images and info on the “True Blue” Air Jordan 1 Mid and let us know what you think about this upcoming July release.

Remember the Air Jordan 1 Retro ’89, that hybrid style that blends the Air Jordan 1 and the Air Jordan IV? A new colorway has just popped up for the sneaker, one that pulls from the forthcoming “Green Glow” version of the Air Jordan IV. The previous preview showed off combos old and new on the shoe, so it’s not entirely surprising that that this cool green and black set up will also be adapted. Continue reading for a full preview of the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Retro ’89 “Green Glow” and give us a heads up in the comments as to which pair of this hybrid you’re feeling the most.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in black/metallic gold definitely stands as the hardest to track down of Air Jordan 1 retro releases in 2013. With that being said, it’s good to see the sneakers getting some wear rather than getting tucked away in closet. Wiz Khalifa is the one putting in work in this instance, showing up to LAX with the patent leather shoes on feet. Continue reading to see the full photos of Wiz Khalifa in this limited Air Jordan 1 release and stay tuned to see whether or not any other celebs recently added them to their rotation.

Remember that purple, black, and orange Air Jordan 1 sample that we showed you earlier on today? It looks like Jordan Brand had a couple different versions of said sneaker produced. Shown here is one that closely matches-only this time the orange sections are gone in favor of a lily white treatment for the innards. Which looking do you find more appealing? Let us know in the comments and then grab this unreleased Air Jordan 1 for yourself from jesusisbackintown on eBay.

Would you want to see zebra on an Air Jordan retro? The most notable and perhaps only time that happened was a custom job that showed up at last year’s Sneaker Free Market event. The Air Jordan 1 we’re examining here was apparently intended for mass production, but for whatever reason, the release was nixed and only this sample pair remains. They were cast in one of the highest contrast colorways possible, blending purple, black and orange and even going two-tone on the laces. The signature element on this Jordan 1 Mid was the tonal stripes on the entire leather upper; not quite zebra, but every bit as bold and eye-catching. Let us know if you would have rocked these, and consider adding this rare Jordan 1 to your sample with a bid from jesusisbackintown on eBay.

Last year was very much the year of red, white, and blue Air Jordan retros thanks to the Olympics, but it looks like 2013 just might have a few pairs in that category as well. Shown here is an upcoming Air Jordan 1 Phat pair that has a vague USA look to it, one that also opts for some elephant print touches towards the back end. In fact, that combo of red, white, and blue plus elephant has us thinking “True Blue” a la the Air Jordan III. Can the Air Jordan 1 Phat still stir up some excitement in the midst of all these “Nike Air” equipped joints running around? Let us know after you check out the full photos and stay tuned for more in this Air Jordan 1 style.
