The origin of the agreed-upon “traditional anniversary gifts” are a matter of continuing dispute, but its attendees definitely include the folks in Beaverton. Look no further than the Air Jordan 1 “Ruby” for proof, taking its moniker and glistening fire red tonality from the customary gemstone handed out for 40 years of marriage, aligning with the aforementioned ongoing celebration. Of course, utilizing the Air Jordan 1 is natural choice given that narrative, the “shoe that started it all” and gave way to the footwear giant that continues to enthrall hobbyists.
Spinning off of the “Bred Toe” from 2018 may undercut that historical lean, but this colorway is likely best understood as a halfway point between the OG “Bred” and “Black Toe.” In that way, though it doesn’t carry the “Reimagined” subhead, still the air of reinterpretation is alive and well, adding crackled leather finishes and an embossed metalWings logo.
